Wow time flies, it's been over a month since my last update. Busy times, since I started developing the https://steemian.info informational website, which I announced about two weeks ago. I barely had time to blog or check my daily feeds as I used to. I'm glad the website is getting some popularity, especially the Witnesses section. I'm still working on improvements for performance and efficiency. I added a few more communities, so check them out on Steemian.Info:
Minnow Support Project - Helping new users grow and succeed on Steemit
One Life At A Time - Community for saving missing children
Steem Silver Gold - Community for physical silver and gold enthusiasts
Veterans Project - Community project in support of military veterans on Steemit
Here's a quick update:
- The servers are running great, with a redundant fail-over bash script that I wrote. Only 2 missed blocks since I started witnessing 3.5 months ago, not too shabby. Things are solid with daily monitoring and maintenance.
- My witness position is effectively at Rank 39 today, because of a couple disabled witnesses. I don't know what's happening, voodoo times, many top witnesses have missed a lot of blocks lately for reasons such as datacenter problems or old memory configurations. I got 614 voters, which is double of what I had a month ago! I'm very grateful for your confidence, I aim constantly to not disappoint.
- SBD average price is still hovering around $0.95, so I'm maintaining my APR at 1%.
- I continue to help new users and witnesses on Steemit.Chat, it's my daily activity, despite the website development taking most of my time.
- I finally got promoted to the Witness level in the Minnow Support Project a few weeks ago, I'm happy to be sitting among my peers in those private channels 😀
