Technical and Economical

• kept my witness node running smoothly, with no missed blocks
• kept my price feed bias, at 0% - SBD is trading at $0.98, close to the peg
• kept my SBD APR at 1% - in an attempt to maintain SBD to the peg
• kept the account registration fee at $1 (I use a script called steem witness toolbox, available for free on Github, for publishing the feed price and adjusting a few blockchain props)
  kept the block size at 65,536
• set up my own content node, which is still replaying the blockchain for more than a week now. After it's done, I have to think to a better solution for this, maybe keeping a backup copy not older than a week at all times.
