If you want to get real-time data on the Bitcoin Cash network, you can see the list of active nodes on https://cashnodes.io. You can see the nodes supporting the BCH blockchain based on the software it is run, countries and network. US seems to lead the way with 389 nodes, while Germany comes in close with 239. The rest is spread all across the world. Is there any BCH node run in your country? #Club1Bch

Very interesting breakdown. Does it take specific hardware to run a node and mine Bitcoin Cash and is the difficulty the same as Bitcoin Core or is it slightly easier? I have someone I know that may get into mining. Also is there any browser mining for Bitcoin Cash?
The requirements are quite low, you can run it even on a Raspberry Pi with 2 GB RAM, a 50 Kbps internet connection and enough storage space attached to hold the current chain size and then some (300-500GB is sufficient).
Thank you, I'll be sharing that with my friend and he can then compare it to the mining rig he was going to get to see how it would work.
