Technical and Economical

• kept my witness node running smoothly, with no missed blocks
• kept my price feed at 300%, following a broader attempt of witnesses to normalize the SBD price, which, at the moment of writing, is trading at over $13
• kept my SBD APR at 1%
• 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

Community
