Beltelecom accept custom hardware inside their datacenter with required hardware for run your node ?
No I’m going to use 3u server case Procase EB306
Thank you for the reply 
For me it’s fine 
Has my vote.
Thanks guys for your votes, but unfortunately I was not chosen.
Perhaps they prefer home servers with slow unreliable internet or dedicated servers in Hetzner than physically placing the node in a reliable data center, I don’t know but I’ve fallen interest in this project.
Good luck
@yucher We have only posted the initial selection and in the meantime, the team has reached out to you with further questions. We always strongly encourage nodes to provide more information and let us know why we should reconsider their applications. You can still be included in the final decision (which will be posted next week) if you provide clarification on the questions that the community and the team have asked.
