|
| What kind of improvements would you like to see in xx network nodes vs. previous nodes you have supported? | I would like to see high speed and stability. |
| What are potential setbacks preventing you from operating an xx network node? | I may have some technical problems with running a node. But I'm sure I can find a solution anyway |
| What is the maximum upload bandwidth in megabits per second your node can provide? | 500 |
| What is the maximum download bandwidth in megabits per second your node can provide? | 350 |
| What is a reasonable uptime estimate you can provide for your BetaNet node? | 100 |
| Please estimate the cost of electricity in the geographic area where your BetaNet node will be running. | 0.7 USD |
| On a monthly basis, how much time can you publicly commit to dedicating toward governance if you were selected as a BetaNet node operator?` | 90 |
| In what type of environment would this server be located? | Personal Home |
| If your server is located in your personal home, please specify the name of your Internet Service Provider (ISP). | Gulfstream |

| Do you already own sufficient hardware to meet the published xx network BetaNet Node specifications (found here)? | Intel Core i9-9980HK, Nvidia GeForce RTX 2070, RAM 63 GB, Samsung 883 DCT 240GB |
| 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: | No |
| Why do you want to be a node? | I’m keen on the blockchain technology. |
| How did you originally hear about the xx network? | |
| Which current xx network communities are you a member of? |
|
| Are you an active member of those communities? | No |
| What specifically, interests you about the xx network platform? | In addition to the innovative technologies that the team is already using, I was interested in the idea of creating a truly secure and decentralized messenger. I now see how the government and others are putting pressure on the creators of other messengers. They once promised security too. I hope that xx network will succeed for sure |
| Outside of xx network communities, are you an active participant in other node or developer community groups? If so, which ones? | Mina and Solana |
| Have you ever attended a blockchain conference? If so, which one(s)? | No |
| Do you have past experience managing communities or creating content to be distributed across social media? Please enter details for all with which you are comfortable or have experience: | |
| As part of growing the xx network community, are you willing to create content as part of operating an xx network BetaNet node? Examples would be node setup & on-boarding review vlog post, bi-weekly twitter update, medium review of on-going node operational process, etc. | No |

| Why do you want to run a node in the xx network |
|
| What is the difference between decentralized networks and distributed networks, and where on the decentralization spectrum do you sit? | I would compare a distributed network to parliamentarism in terms of governance. Because only some nodes can make decisions. While a decentralized network is anarchism, where control belongs to all network members without exception. |
| 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. | xx network will be able to overcome the major weaknesses of all blockchains like lack of speed, scalability and usable privacy. To ensure protected digital sphere xx network relies on two highly innovative protocols: Elixxir and Praxxis |
| 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? | It is vital because I see the internet of the future as a very free and independent platform, independent above all of the government. |
| In your opinion, what threat, if any, do quantum computers pose toward decentralized systems? What about centralized systems? | I think it is too early to talk about it, as the first quantum computer is still a long way off. But if it does, it will most likely be able to crack any blockchain. |

Has my vote!!!
not bad, you have my support
Nice request, has my vote
If you would have a ssd which meets the requirements you would have my support please check the node handbook for specs
You have my vote too.
I have 64 RAM and am running out of memory I will take a bigger drive probably WD 1TB NVMe M.2 2280 PCIe 4.0
Be sure that you have at least 500k/500k iops
Most of the standard ssd nvme m.2 aren’t fast enough so you should use the pro variant in case of a Samsung drive
Okay, I will choose the pro one
