Witness Update - DragosRoua

Technical and Economical

  • nothing major to report this week either, other than the fact that I started a power down to cover the costs for the witness node, HIVE price being at around $0.12, it doesn't cover for the hardware expenses
  • kept the block size at 65,535
  • kept the registration fee at 3 HIVE
  • kept the HBD interest at 0%.

I'm on the 62th position, thanks for your support.


There is an ongoing funding proposal for two of my Hive-related projects, which will allow me to support some of the costs involved. If you want to support this proposal, all you have to do is to vote it using any of the two links below:

Wanna know when you're getting paid?

I know the feeling. That's why I created hive.supply, an easy to use and accurate tool for calculating your HIVE rewards

It's free to use, but if you think this is a useful addition, I'd appreciate your witness vote.

Thank you!

Is there an option, after HF24, to trim down the hardware and lower the cost? I still don't know what is the minimum / optimal HW configuration to run a witness node :)

In theory, you could implement MIRA and go with smaller SSD, I didn't try this, so still a solid 250GB of SSD needed, plus a decent CPU and RAM configuration. Multiplied by 2, ideally, for the failover.


Hey @dragosroua, here is a little bit of BEER from @ervin-lemark for you. Enjoy it!
