Node Country China
For which networks have you ever operated a node?
  • Other (please specify): Conflux
What kind of improvements would you like to see in xx network nodes vs. previous nodes you have supported? Scalability. Transaction speed. Privacy and security. Anti-quantum algorithm I am looking forward to seeing its growth
What are potential setbacks preventing you from operating an xx network node? NO
What is the maximum upload bandwidth in megabits per second your node can provide? 100Mb
What is the maximum download bandwidth in megabits per second your node can provide? 1000
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. 0.16 US/cents per kilowatt/hour
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). China Telecom
If your server is located in a Datacenter, please specify the name of the company hosting it. Nodes will not be allowed to run on Hetzner. If you do, you will not receive compensation.
Do you have past experience deploying hardware servers in a datacenter? No
Do you already own sufficient hardware to meet the published xx network BetaNet Node specifications (found here)? AMD R9-5950X ,AMD RADEON Rx 6800xt ,64GB RAM ,Intel DC SSD P3600 1.6TB
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 firmly believe that the world is fair. Everyone should have their own rights and privacy. The XXnetwork blockchain is decentralized. Anti-quantum. I aspire to be one of them. Witness this great beginning.
How did you originally hear about the xx network? Word of Mouth
Which current xx network communities are you a member of?
  • Twitter
Are you an active member of those communities? Yes
What specifically, interests you about the xx network platform? Anonymous. Anti-quantum.
Outside of xx network communities, are you an active participant in other node or developer community groups? If so, which ones?
Have you ever attended a blockchain conference? If so, which one(s)?
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. I will promote node tutorials on media platforms. Try to get more people involved
    Would you be interested in helping to lead the development of the next xx network community? No
    Why do you want to run a node in the xx network
    • To protect private personal communication around health and lifestyle issues from mass surveillance and abuse by centralized organizations
    • To earn xx coins
    • To help build David Chaum's vision of a decentralized world
    • To contribute to a promising project
    • To help build true digital cash to fuel a decentralized economy
    What is the difference between decentralized networks and distributed networks, and where on the decentralization spectrum do you sit? The decentralized type is more democratic than the centralized type, there is no central management organization, and the system users are self-controlled
    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 provides protection against attack by quantum computing to users, security and the highest level of anonymity and communication confidentiality.
    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? Everyone wants to protect their privacy. In this transparent world
    In your opinion, what threat, if any, do quantum computers pose toward decentralized systems? What about centralized systems? Quantum computers will pose a major security threat to the cryptosystem currently in use. The blockchain mainly relies on the elliptic curve public key encryption algorithm to generate digital signatures for secure transactions. The most commonly used ECDSA, RSA, DSA, etc. cannot withstand quantum attacks in theory. According to theoretical predictions, for a certain length of ECC key based on the asymmetric elliptic curve encryption algorithm, it is estimated that it will take tens of minutes to use the current supercomputer to crack the password that takes decades to crack if a quantum computer with thousands of qubits and Shor algorithm are used. It can be cracked. It can be seen that some quantum algorithms will pose a serious threat to the public key cryptosystem currently used in blockchains, and security strategies for quantum computing must be proposed.

    Can you upgrade your GPU to meet the minimum HW spec in the handbook? The Radeon GPU is not supported.

    Sorry. I did not reply to you in time. The new NVIDIA graphics card is being contacted for purchase. And will be installed and running soon.

    RTX 3080 or higher graphics card. Supplier will ship soon
