Umbrel has recently removed the biggest obstacle in the path of Bitcoin by means of making an easier way for people to go through a node.
Umbrel is an extremely exciting company that plays a huge role in the space of BTC at this very moment. This is due to the reason that the company has successfully managed to resolve one of the largest stumbling blocks of Bitcoin.
Bitcoin Paces Ahead With The Help Of Umbrel
It has always been a huge ordeal to build our own BTC full node. This is mainly because the process involved one very bad user experience. This experience was worsened in case a user needed a different part of the kit. Owing to this friction, very few people run the nodes or participate in the ecosystem of BTC.
However, things are fast changing in the system as Umbrel is gearing up to bring a change in the process.
Mayank Chhabra, the co-founder of Umbrel, has recently made a public statement saying the BTC will not be able to survive if more people do not run nodes and within 50 to 100 years, BTC fails to turn into a reserve crypto-asset, then it can be certainly said that more people are running full nodes of their own.
The company basically tries to buy some components to piece together a computer of about $200 and then utilize Umbrel software for loading BTC in it. Decrypt has reported that piecing together the kit is quite simple. Then Umbrel will take charge of the remaining things to be done.
As soon as the kit starts running. The user is directly connected to BTC through the Tor network and gives access to the 2nd layer of BTC’s scaling solution named Lightning Network.
