  Running a Bitcoin node requires a computer with sufficient resources. You will need a decent processor, at least 2GB of RAM, and a few hundred gigabytes of storage. The cost of setting up a Bitcoin node can vary depending on the hardware you choose. If you opt for a more powerful computer, the cost will be higher. However, you can also run a node on a budget by using a Raspberry Pi or other low-cost devices. As for the maintenance cost, it mainly includes electricity and internet fees. Overall, the cost of running a Bitcoin node can range from a few hundred to a few thousand dollars per year, depending on your setup and usage.
