Variation: If you dont have a big bugdet to prefinance the part shoppings or people have already hardware they want to bring to can just buy the HHDs and SD cards and prepare them to run this scenario.

This scenario is just adviced for small groups or you need to bring multiple blockchain copy stations - see details on "Prepare HDDs with Blockchain Data". Otherwise it needs the least prepartion time and prefinance and can be announced about participants 5 days before, so that they have time to order all the parts online.

# Prepare HDDs with Blockchain Data ## Prepare HDDs with Blockchain Data
This is the most time consuming part of the preparation. Try it once to get a feel for how much time you need to prepare one HDD. This is the most time consuming part of the preparation. Try it once to get a feel for how much time you need to prepare one HDD.
A prepared HDD is formatted in EXT4 and named "BLOCKCHAIN". In folder called `bitcoin` it contains a copy of the following data folders from a running Bitcoin core client (same version on RaspiBlitz).

The bitcoin core client the folders are from needs to have `txindex=1` in the bitcoin.conf and needs to be stopped while the data is copied to the HDD.
