Deploy and maintain independent BitShares infrastructure

Given the growth of the BitShares ecosystem, we, Blockchain Projects BV, feel that the network should become more redundant and reduce its reliance on business partners that are currently running nodes primarily. That said, we would like to deploy independent servers and maintain the basic needs for a healthy BitShares network, including, but not limited to, a faucet, public API nodes, and seed nodes.
