"Has anyone had issues with the 100GB storage requirement for a full Bitcoin node? I've got a decent server, but I'm worried about the space and bandwidth costs. Has anyone found any workarounds or cost-effective solutions?"

"Just started setting up my own full node following this guide and I gotta say it's been a wild ride. Got stuck on the 'syncing blockchain' part for a while, but I made some adjustments to my internet settings and it's flying now. Anyone else have any tips for newbie node runners?"
