Generating and Working With ScriptPubKeys in Bitcoin Transactions
As mentioned previously, ScriptPubKeys are scripts that embody the locking conditions of bitcoins in a Bitcoin transaction. They are a crucial element of a Bitcoin transaction that specifies the requirements that must be met before an unspent transaction output (UTXO) is used. The ScriptPubKey, combined with the Amount, creates an output of a Bitcoin transaction. Like every other script, ScriptPubKeys are made up of operators and data. During the encoding of a transaction, both data and the operands are represented in hexadecimal format. You can find the hex representation for all operands used in Bitcoin Scripts here.

POLL: Best Lightning Wallet (noncustodial)
That said, the benefits of using and understanding lnd directly are huge. I strongly recommend the raspibolt tutorial to anybody who is willing to learn to run a simple linux system via command line.

Is my Bitcoin Node operational?
So overall I recommend you to start from the scratch using at least a 1TByte SSD, better 2. And either follow https://raspibolt.org/ for full sovereignty. Or if that seems too difficult for you look into https://raspiblitz.org/.

A new full node is born.
The main sources of information to build my full node are Ministry Of Nodes’ video tutorials on YouTube and the incredible RaspiBolt guide. Both have been very useful to get me started in this beautiful project, but I faced some issues every now and then due to the fact that I was dealing with newer versions of the apps and things didn’t work out of the box all the time so I had to RTFM here and there.
