"Running a Mina node doesn't have a high barrier to entry - you don't need too technical of a background to start and many people can just start in 10 minutes from the docs provided."

"While Mina's technology is cutting edge, what really makes the project is the people involved, both the O(1) Labs team members and the Mina community."

"I feel that Mina’s testnet is the most accessible compared to other testnets. Every step is explained very well in the docs, which is very important to me as I'm not a technical specialist."

"My favorite thing about Mina is how it utilizes and builds on zk-SNARKs, which are a fundamental technology that could have a massive impact on the blockchain space and technology in general."

My measure of a project isn't the quality of the tech. It’s the quality of the community. I wouldn't have been able to spin my node up if it weren't for the insanely great members that helped me. And that's something special.
