Great to know that secure Nodes beta with payments was released today! Any difference in the setup of a secure node now?
Not really. Only thing is you don't need to connect to testnet if you don't want to.
Ok, great! So the guide is still up to date on how to setup a secure node. Having 2500 is good, but it could be increased if more than 3.5% was distributed to them (maybe something closer to Dash's masternode).
