| For which networks have you ever operated a node? |
|
| What kind of improvements would you like to see in xx network nodes vs. previous nodes you have supported? | Competent user interface and monitoring tools with alerts. |
| What are potential setbacks preventing you from operating an xx network node? | Currently there are none. |
| What is the maximum upload bandwidth in megabits per second your node can provide? | 850 |
| What is the maximum download bandwidth in megabits per second your node can provide? | 800 |
| What is a reasonable uptime estimate you can provide for your BetaNet node? | 90 |
| Please estimate the cost of electricity in the geographic area where your BetaNet node will be running. | 0,16 KWH |
| 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). | OVH |
| 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. | Nope |
| 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)? | Patriot Viper VPR100 1 TB, NG RTX 2080 Ti, Intel Core i9-10900KF, 64GB RAM, AMD Ryzen 5 3600x |
| 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: | Nope |
| Why do you want to be a node? | I believe that for a good and safe life on the Internet we need to support decentralized networks, blockchains and cryptocurrencies. Especially those that are going to make a big contribution to the development of the Internet, just like xx Network. |
| How did you originally hear about the xx network? | Telegram |
| 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? | The fact that the developers pay a lot of attention to aspects of decentralization. |
| Outside of xx network communities, are you an active participant in other node or developer community groups? If so, which ones? | ZeitGeist, Aleo and Kira |
| Have you ever attended a blockchain conference? If so, which one(s)? | Nope |
| 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 |
| Would you be interested in helping to lead the development of the next xx network community? | Yes |
| 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? | All decentralized networks are completely independent of central control. Each node makes its own decisions and keeps a copy of the entire network. The operation of the network is the result of decisions made by the nodes. To avoid contradictions such networks use consensus protocols. They are responsible for the integrity of the network and help nodes coordinate their actions. I don't know that much about distributional systems. All I can say is that they are definitely less private and secure. |
| 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. | I saw a difference in the xx network's more consistent approach to the issue of decentralization and privacy. |
| 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? | I am one hundred percent in favor of privacy by default. It is important not only for the Internet but for the development of humanity as a whole. It is time for us to end the era of constant surveillance. People should have a choice and an alternative to all the centralized networks that may be useful, but are not safe for us. |
| In your opinion, what threat, if any, do quantum computers pose toward decentralized systems? What about centralized systems? | We need a defense or ways to defend against quantum computers. They can do a lot and are not easy to stop. Entire systems and networks can be affected by them. |
