I have disabled Yanubi feeds based on some conversations on the forum. If this needs to be enabled I need an active witness to confirm this for me.
A fair amount of work has been done in the past few weeks learning Bitshares (graphene) and getting everything aligned properly to launch my witness proposal. It’s extremely important to provide a great service for the DEX users and continue to improve upon those services. I understand the responsibility to the Bitshares community and I am providing my Hardware to exclusively support DEX (I have no plans to run steem, muse or any other graphene nodes on my servers). I believe that we need to continue to build a robust platform infrastructure capable of handling heavy loads at a moment's notice.
Transparency:- I am not affiliated with any other accounts on Bitshares (not running any other witnesses).
- Emergencies might happen (node upgrades due to bugs etc.) therefore I will provide my name, email, phone number and WhatsApp contact information to the following individuals if they ask for it:
1. Anyone with +100MLN votes for my witnesses
2. Key Developers and Committee Members
3. [member=31]fav[/member] because fav has strict roll calls and I don't want to miss them
4. [member=37127]JonnyBitcoin[/member]
5. Or as required by future developments.
While it's a common fact that we have many highly qualified witnesses running for the (currently) 21 active witness spots it has got to be mentioned that not all witnesses are active, some of them run node versions that are +50 weeks old and are set up on dated VPS platforms. I am not asking for anyone to be voted down, I am just offering capable services to sustain DEX for the months to come either as a standby or active witness.
If you decide to vote on my witness please check my position at:
https://www.cryptofresh.com/witnesses and if your vote makes me an active witness please send me a PM so I can monitor it after the next maintenance window. [Edit 14 APR 17: I got voted in last night, Thank you! All issues fixed]
I encourage others to get involved. I will put together some guides to hopefuly make it easier. Here is my first one:
