A quick update to everyone especially to those who have supported my witness.
Due to recent surge in Steemit users, the block size has increased exponentially and the size of the Blockchain is becoming extremely large (crossed 20GB this week).
This means the Witnesses that are hosting the Steem Blockchain have to upgrade themselves to a larger server.
I am upgrading my server from 26 GB to 32 GB (that's where I can breakeven given my Active Rank in the witness list), the server is currently syncing with the Blockchain and should be up and running in few hours.
Thanks for your witness votes
EDIT:
The server is up and running,
