⚠ PSA, PLEASE READ ALL ⚠ 1. Bitcoin Knots 29.1 AND Bitcoin Core 29.1 are now available on the marketplace πŸŽ‰ 2. Due to a bug in StartOS 0.3.5.1, we recommend stopping Bitcoin before updating. Otherwise, Bitcoin might get stuck in a "stopping" state. If this happens, the fix is to restart the server. 3. Due to another bug in StartOS 0.3.5.1, after updating Bitcoin, it will temporarily enter a "Needs Config" state. It does not need config. Just wait, it will go away in a few seconds. 4. Due to a bug in StartOS 0.3.5.1, Knots and Core will BOTH display as having an update available in the "Updates" tab. Don't worry, we are not trying to trick you into switching implementations. If you currently have Knots installed, updating to Core will fail. If you currently have Core installed, updating to Knots will fail. 5. To switch from Knots to Core, or from Core to Knots, follow these instructions: https://community.start9.com/t/installing-bitcoin-knots/1997/5

I was referring to their sales/downloads, to verify that data. We jumped from 19% to almost 25% and obviously I want to believe they are legit, and would be great if nostr:nprofile1qqs9df4h2deu3aae83fmet5xmrlm4w5l9gdnsy3q2n7dklem7ezmwfcpzamhxue69uhhyetvv9ujumn0wd68ytnzv9hxgtcpz9mhxue69uhkummnw3ezuamfdejj7f4nlzp could help verify.

Matt Hill: "[In that period] Start9 sold 1,004 servers and observed an ~2,000 new DIY instances. Bitcoin Core was downloaded 2,201 times. Bitcoin Knots was downloaded 3,202 times. Download figures represent the aggregate of testing, upgrading, switching, and fresh installs. Based on these figures, we think it is safe to assume that StartOS added 1,500 - 2,000 new nodes to the Bitcoin network from June 1 - Sep 8, with a ~1,000 node swing in favor of Knots. This is further supported by the overwhelming feedback from users expressing interest in running Knots. So StartOS ALONE largely accounts for the chart above, and that's without taking, Parmanode, Umbrel, MyNode, and random Linux distros into account."

This is perfect timing as my new Mini PC has arrived today. Besides running a Bitcoin node what other things are all of you running using StartOS? #bitcoin nostr:nevent1qvzqqqqqqypzq44xkafh8j8hhy79809wsmv0lw46nu4pkwqjyp20ekml80mytde8qqsflzzkl4zvgkya8f4ga27fr6luzypvchr5x99rrqq83gf0pwwwccc69yhmd
