Do you have hardware you would like to use but does not meet the stated BetaNet node specs? If so, please provide specs on that hardware below:
Why do you want to be a node? I believe that Project Ellexxir has great prospects and I want to become a part of its history.
How did you originally hear about the xx network? Twitter
Which current xx network communities are you a member of? Twitter, Telegram, Discord, BetaNet Forum
What specifically, interests you about the xx network platform? This is a completely new generation platform. It is devoid of all the flaws that exist in today's crypto platforms. Elixxir is destined to become popular and lead the cryptocurrency industry!
Outside of xx network communities, are you an active participant in other node or developer community groups? If so, which ones? no

Examples would be node setup & on-boarding review vlog post, bi-weekly twitter update, medium review of on-going node operational process, etc. I think I can post weekly my thoughts and impressions of use in my tweets and forum posts
Why do you want to run a node in the xx network? To protect the privacy of political speech, To protect private personal communication around health and lifestyle issues from mass surveillance and abuse by centralized organizations, To promote quantum secure distributed systems, To earn xx coins, To help build David Chaum's vision of a decentralized world, To contribute to a promising project, To undo the centralization of the internet by big tech companies, To help build true digital cash to fuel a decentralized economy, To reverse the political centralization of legal, police, and military organizations which favor the wealthy and powerful
What is the difference between decentralized networks and distributed networks, and where on the decentralization spectrum do you sit? Decentralized networks do not have a single control center. Therefore, the risks of any interference or pressure are eliminated.
As best as you can given currently available information, please describe the value proposition of the xx network platform and how it differs from other current blockchain solutions. The main difference is in the construction of the network architecture. This is a completely new level of development of blockchain technology. Elilxxir uses developed a next-generation, quantum secure blockchain which uses a unique consensus mechanism called xxBFT, or xx consensus
Privacy by Default is a goal of the xx network Platform. In your opinion, why is Privacy by Default critical for the future of the internet? Few people today think about whether there is anonymity on the Internet? There is no anonymity. There is none at all. Everyone knows everything about all. And even when I fill in these data and transfer them to the company, I open my data. And we all do it all the time. Unfortunately, this is used by both Internet fraudsters and corporations that control the entire Internet and all services. An attempt to create a new anonymous and secure Internet will surely find its followers and will be successful with users.
In your opinion, what threat, if any, do quantum computers pose toward decentralized systems? What about centralized systems? Centralized systems are dangerous. Even today they cannot guarantee the safety of their users. And with the advent of quantum computers, this could be a real threat. I hope that by then everything will be working on decentralized networks. And not just on decentralized networks, but on the Elixxir network, which is known to have protection and are resistant to threats of quantum computers.

Hi, i dont like the idea that you have to use more money than you can afford. Therefore from a social perspective for your life i would decline this request.
Even i mentioned in the initial answer i would accept you.

15

You are partly right. But if you look at things globally, then participation in this project will give me and my family a chance to break out of “the rat race”.

16

Now I have a channel with a speed of 100 Mbps for downloading and uploading.

My internet service provider (ISP): Astra
Website: https://astra.in.ua/

Now I have a tariff of 100 Mb/s, but if necessary, my provider provides the opportunity to switch to the 500 Mb/s package.
