@ -25,6 +25,11 @@ External guides can be out-of-date and have various problems.
At least double-check that the guide you're using is actively maintained.
If you can't use our guide, please ask about what you don't understand or consider using automated deployments.
Note that this implementation of Electrum server is optimized for **personal/small-scale (family/friends) usage**.
It's a bad idea to run it publicly as it'd expose you to DoS and maybe also other attacks.
If you want to run a public server you may be interested in the [Blockstream fork of electrs](https://github.com/Blockstream/electrs)
which is better optimized for public usage at the cost of consuming *significantly* more resources.
