Heard You Needed a Node? Witness FollowBTCNews Launches a New Public Full RPC Node

in witness-category •  7 years ago  (edited)

New Steem FULL PUBLIC RPC NODE is Now Available at steemd.minnowsupportproject.org

Last week, I announced that we were setting up a new public RPC node to help out the Steem blockchain.

That same day, @aggroed mentioned to me that a new node is a fantastic idea, and that the Minnow Support Project would be happy to help with its creation. We had initially covered costs on our own, with plans to use this brand spanking new node for projects benefiting MSP, so the match seemed perfect.

We're pleased to present, with donations made from leadership within the Minnow Support Project and our own funds from our witness FollowBtcNews... this RPC Node is now UP AND RUNNING for public use.


People that sent in donations to help us set this up include:

So now, what does this node news actually mean?

More new, properly managed nodes means that Steemit and the sites that rely on them are more responsive, and much faster. Remember that this full rpc node is public, and we're making this resource available to you! The Minnow Support Project will be both utilizing and supporting it... exciting times ahead.



Server Specs:

https://steemd.minnowsupportproject.org

wss://steemd.minnowsupportproject.org

6-core 12-thread Xeon E5

256GB DDR4 ECC RAM

1gbit/s network

All plugins enabled

 

Help our witness FollowBTCNews keep this node running and maintained.

We have been prepared from day one to take on the cost of running this node, and are committed to making the Steem blockchain better and more reliable. Now, with the added support of the Minnow Support Project and PALnet, we are off to a flying start and we are teamed up to provide even more tools and support! If you want to get involved, please consider voting for our witness FollowBTCNews, to help us offset the costs that will grow as the usage of this new node increases.

The one we got for the FULL RPC node is running around $200 a month. Cost us about $400 to setup then around $200 a month there after

Oh well that's fine.. i thought could be a little more! Thanks for the quick answer... ! And maybe you can tell me a good reference to start in minning? Thanks man!
