I work with the bitcoin network, you need to register your transaction in a node, there is a wonderful site bitnodes.earn.com, which kindly provides a list of nodes.
Actually the question is: why run your own node (download more than 100 gigs), when you can use the existing one? in theory, choose a node with 100% uptime

If it's only about synchronizing transactions, you don't need a full node.
A full node is raised only by enthusiasts who do not feel sorry for their electricity and processor resources to maintain the maximum availability of the network as a whole.
In short, if you were not a fidoshnik, it will be difficult for you to explain it.)
