| 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? | I want full customization, decentralization and more privacy. Good network bandwidth in order to send a large number of transactions. |
| What are potential setbacks preventing you from operating an xx network node? | Since my server will be located at my home, I will be in full control of the situation regarding anything. |
| What is the maximum upload bandwidth in megabits per second your node can provide? | 750 |
| What is the maximum download bandwidth in megabits per second your node can provide? | 710 |

| Please estimate the cost of electricity in the geographic area where your BetaNet node will be running. | 17.95 euro 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?` | 95 |
| 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). | CD Telematika |
| 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. | I won't buy a server there |
| 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 Ryzen 9 3900X, 64 RAM, GeForce RTX 2080 Ti, Samsung 970 PRO SSD 1TB |
| 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. My Hardware is pretty good |
| Why do you want to be a node? | Supporting progress is the most exciting thing to me. Decentralized platforms create a new economy and ethic. I'm always happy to get involved in something like that. |
| How did you originally hear about the xx network? | Bitcointalk |
| 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? | I think that xx Network is on its way to creating the most faithful decentralized finance. That's what I like and am interested in. The xx Messenger with which you can control your cryptocurrency wallets is of particular interest. |
| Outside of xx network communities, are you an active participant in other node or developer community groups? If so, which ones? | 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 |
| 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? | Distributed networks still have too much control, which prevents them from being more private and thus less secure. For this reason I am in favor of decentralization. |
| 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 is a high perfomant platform with private and security features. The platform provides secure and optionally denominated digital currency, a breakthrough consensus algorithm and blockchain protocol, a decentralized, global network of conventional servers and a democratic governance system. |
| 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? | Here I fully support the developers' vision, so I will answer in their words. "Your life should be yours." |
| In your opinion, what threat, if any, do quantum computers pose toward decentralized systems? What about centralized systems? | I won't speculate at length. The danger is there, such computers are the best at doing big calculations. So our passwords and addresses are at risk. |
