I=92m afraid this is a highly simplistic view of the costs of running a =
full node.

My node consumes fantastic amounts of data traffic, which is a real =
cost.

In the 30 days ending Apri 6, my node:

* Received 36.8 gb of data
* Sent 456.5 gb data

At my geographic service location (Singapore), this cost about $90 last =
month for bandwidth alone. It would be slightly cheaper if I was hosted =
in the US of course.

But anyone can understand that moving a half-terrabyte of data around in =
a month will not be cheap.
