i think you know the current size of the entire Byteball database, do you? because i still was not able to install a full wallet i don't know. thank you.
It is about 650MB right now.

Witnesses get the transaction fees, my full node wallet hasnt received any meaningful amount of fees.

thank you. i hope that i will be able so set up a full wallet on my raspberry as soon as i am back home an have access to it. but i have to admit, that i am a GUI-user and have to learn a lot.

to set up a full wallet. do i need to follow these steps?
https://github.com/byteball/byteball
i tried it with my macbook. but i was not able to launch the wallet.
i struggled here:

Then run Byteball desktop client:

/path/to/your/nwjs/nwjs


Or is this all only for building the light wallet?

i feel a bit ashamed to ask these questions....

No need to feel ashamed this is new to many here me too.

Ive seen someone mention writing a guide on running these components, relay hub witness and headless wallet, get in touch with them they are on slack, even just getting input from you what happens when you follow the guide would be very helpful.

Yes, the byteball/byteball is for building the full and light wallets and can build android app.

You can use on raspberry pi byteball/byteball-relay or -hub of you want to help the network. Headless-byteball if you want to send payments programmatically and also help network.

The mentioned technical guide on running a byteball-hub is being written here https://www.gitlab.com/snippets/1548253

Have a look, follow it, and ask questions in the slack, the vision is the guide should be good enough to have a hub running on Linux in a short amount of time with high security.

You can join the byteball group on gitlab https://www.gitlab.com/byteball and contribute directly.

followed the guide but I get this:
servesbytesnet@raspberrypi:~/byteball-hub $ node start.js
-su: node: command not found
servesbytesnet@raspberrypi:~/byteball-hub $

I see, will add text on how to verify a node package is installed.

Try to run "apt-get update" as root, and then again "apt-get install nodejs npm git logrotate", what is the output of those commands, success or some errors?

Usually a "command not found" means a package was not installed successfully.
