this could definitely be powered by a small solar system with a single deep cycle battery and cellular router, altogether around 20W continuous power consumption.

This is a great initiative that will help improve Astar network. for there to be full decentralisation, Nodes needs to be spread across the globe.

i am in Nigeria and would be happy to be running an ASTAR node here.

Hi, bLd!  
The aarch64 node version you shared in this programme is v4.39.1.  
Do we have a latest version of v4.49.0?  
It would be great if we can have an aarch binary also updated in the next release!

I don’t mind spinning up a Astar node, and even do more like managing collators and validators. I have an extra Raspberry Pi just for this.
