@danlowe Dangit, why is the URL still screwed up?
@orweinberger Are you going to hold on to some of the donations to smooth out the # of nodes so that you aren’t de-provisioning as often?
@orweinberger Check out my node related posts on @CoinChomp http://t.co/6xf7NAyCd6 - I need to add host namespacing to the stats though.
@orweinberger If you want, we could work out a way for you to run statoshi nodes that all send their metrics to a single graphite server.
@orweinberger I certainly hope that Statoshi will be useful to node operators, especially people who run lots of nodes.
@orweinberger Yeah that’s a good start to prove that you own the server; verifies your list of IP addresses on fullnode.co
@orweinberger Excellent. I’ve discussed such systems with people but always got stuck on how you as an operator prove you run honest nodes.
orweinberger @lopp Hey Jameson, fullnode.co is completely automated!
@orweinberger So it monitors the donation address and uses the funds to purchase VPS instances?
@CathyReisenwitz Good point - major oversight right there. Hopefully Titcoin doesn’t discriminate.
Mostly automated provisioning of full Bitcoin nodes is now possible by donating to fullnode.co
@CathyReisenwitz Are you pro or anti Titcoin? vimeo.com/92087150
@emilepetrone Politicians and lobbyists ain’t cheap, bro.
Straight from the mouth of @jonmatonis: “We [@BTCFoundation] don’t attempt to represent the community at large.”
It turns out that @BTCFoundation has $4.6M in assets, 90% in BTC. Current burn rate of $150,000 per month. https://t.co/MiTMXPo3fm
