Many people are unable to participate in running a full node due to a lack of knowledge or lack of resources. Furthermore, the space needed to run a full node is more than often 200GB+ and the syncing process itself can take months, ultimately costing the user time, money, and sanity.

Today, we are excited to introduce the nimbleNODE (https://nimblenode.io): the most portable, affordable, and nimble way to run a full node from anywhere in the world. nimbleNODEs are lightweight, wi-fi and bluetooth-equipped devices that are the size of your favorite biscotti. As nimbleNODEs are full nodes, these devices are also amongst the most secure hardware wallets in the entire world; you’re the only one who can ever access the device.

The first iteration of this miniature hardware device will feature support of Bithereum along with Proof-of-Uptime rewards, making it the quickest and easiest way to run a node and earn rewards at the same time, all through a sleek mobile application interface. Every nimbleNODE is pre-imaged with a pruned Bithereum blockchain in just under 8GB, and ready to instantaneously run Proof of Uptime out of the box. Just plug it in, go through our easy setup, and start earning BTH rewards! A nimbleNODE device can fit in the palm of your hand and is meant to be taken anywhere and everywhere. To check up on your node remotely, simply download our mobile application, and connect to your nimbleNODE via wi-fi.

Mobile App Overview

The nimbleNODE app, which everyone will communicate with their device through, is sleek, intuitive and secure. It allows you to track your balance at all times, as well as deposit BTH in order to participate in different PoU tiers. All you as the user has to do is download the app, connect to your nimbleNODE via wi-fi, and get started upon reaching 100% sync status.

Referrals

For every person you refer to pre-order a nimbleNODE, you can earn 20 BTH! All you have to do is share your referral link with that person, and when they make the payment, your order number will be credited with 20 BTH which you can claim at anytime by entering your order number into the nimbleNODE site. Also, as stated before, every pre-order will receive 10% off on the final price.

Moving Forward

The vision of nimbleNODE is grand to say the least, and you can expect that many of the major blockchains and coins will also be coming to this device in the near future. Ultimately, the vision is to create a massive, coin-agnostic full node ecosystem consisting of many cryptos while also creating a means of exchange between everyone in the nimbleEcosytem.

We have many big features and announcements on the horizon for nimbleNODE, so stay tuned. It’s time to become a part of the path to self-sovereignty today!
