Witness Update - DragosRoua

[dragosroua]

Technical and Economical

• continued to subsidize, for the 37th week in a row, as the witness revenue is not matching the hardware expenses
• kept my both nodes, main and backup, running smoothly, with no missed blocks
• kept the block size at 65,535
• kept the registration fee at 3 STEEM
• kept the SBD interest at 0%

Also started to test the 0.21.0 version of the steemd node, in preparation for the next hardfork, which should kick in on August 27. At the moment I'm still running 0.20.10 on my main node.

I am on the 64h position, two spots up from last week, thanks for your support.

Out of curiosity, how much do you need to subsidize your nodes?

You can look up prices on hetzner, but for a decent setup (two nodes with enough RAM and SSD storage), you will need at least 100 EUR / month. Probably more.

You are brave man to keep running it despite losses. I am sure it will payoff.

Thanks, we'll see if it pays off. For now it's a liability, not an asset.
