Title: Node Hosting Service - SuperNodes
Post by: jacobmayes94 on January 18, 2017, 11:11:47 PM
I am offering my service to host altcoin nodes on my servers. This would be an ideal service for seed nodes (updating seed node IP addresses), etc. I am doing this at a low cost, of 0.1 BTC / year / coin (0.2 BTC/year if blockchain size is greater than 2GB, 0.4 BTC  a year if the blockchain is greater than 20GB). (Payable in BTC, LTC, DOGE, ETH, ETC, UNO, ZCash, DASH).

If you have a coin you wish to see live or if you wish to have your own altcoin seed node hosted, then drop me a message and we can work something out. I am willing to set up the node, let it sync and you can verify it works before payment is sent to me. The year contract starts from the day payment is received and confirmed.

There are a few coins which will be excluded from this service. This includes:

Coins with a premine greater than 1%.
Coins that have been verified to be scams.
Coins where the developers are making obvious attempts to pump their coin with no innovation what so ever.

An example of a coin i will accept: HODLCoin, good innovation weather or not I agree with the current development path of locking up new blocks.
An example of a coin i would reject: Bytecoin, insane premine, BULLS, insane premine.

Joke coins are accepted, and welcomed, such as SHT, URO, etc.

Weather or not I agree with decisions on the coins development will not affect my node hosting service or willingness to host a node, for example i will eagerly host a HODLCoin node if the developers or users would like, even though i disagreed with the hard fork. Provided there are no outright attempts to scam people, i will not have a problem. If your coin (as a developer) is later found to be a scam coin, for example where the developers did a runner after manipulating the market, etc then the coin will be delisted, and no refund will be given, although i will put it to the vote on multiple forums after finding a coin to be a potential scam, in interest of fairness. If the coin node hosting was paid by a user rather than a developer, in fairness to the user who supported the coin the coin node will remain active for the duration of their contract, as the coins users would not be at fault.

The above is because I am against premined shitcoins!

If anyone is interested, drop me a line! If the chain is not moving, I am happy to do 'setgenerate true' on the node to mine and move the chain along. The servers are on 1Gbps connections, and each coin node will be allocated 100 - 300mbps each. In the event of a 'hard fork' of the coin, i will upgrade the software at no extra fee provided i am given notice personally, because i will not keep track of bitcointalk posts and announcement on all the coins!

If they are seed nodes, no need to add them to your config. If you are a mining pool or solo miner for a coin you would benefit from adding supernode relays or seed nodes into your coinconf.conf file, using addnode=hostname/ip, to allow faster block propagation and to reduce orphans.

HODLCoin - europe.hodlcoin.com - Seed Node - Renewal Date 25/01/2018 - HODL: HSjd8vCJbUMS9WNTsEVAiBEgYNkd9czwXC
UNO - uno.node-hosting.online - Multi - Renewal Date 27/01/2018 - BTC: 3HTGfJGJiaKYWRtVLH67EGHWBa9EGrPLph

We also accept donations at our donation \ hot wallet address: 1NodeHoGC5u7Fh3XYU1ThJj7aL1pHh42wm


If you wish to validate identity of me on this forum at any point, ensure I sign an message from the donation \ hot wallet address.


Each coin will be assigned a unique address for it's payment, this address will remain unchanged and can be used for future renewals. As transactions are public on the blockchain they will be listed next to the currently hosted nodes. Front end website coming soon.

Looks like I will soon be hosting a HodlCoin node using my service, will update when finalized!

One of the HODLCoin seed node is online at europe.hodlcoin.com - europe.hodlcoin.com

I may consider doing a web front end to show the nodes we host.

So tell me, how can you tell is the "User" is not a sockpuppet?

 You have an annual plans only! You do not have a semi-annual , quarterly or monthly plans. what is the reason for this?

 If flounder occurs from any kind of one of those coins, according to This post you will kick it out your server! Why?

I offer annual because if you want a node hosted for an altcoin, chances are you are in need of nodes and due to the fact you want a currency lifespan to be long, yearly is the best sort of plan for a node. And if a coin was a scam coin, and it was the coin dev who had the node hosted, i would delist the node because I do not support scammers. If the user supporting a coin paid however, i would keep it up purely because they should get the service they paid for. If a coin dev is a scammer, this is not for them. Genuine coins only!

In response to the user being a sockpuppet, i couldn't fairly judge that and so my policy will be if a user has paid then they need the service they paid for, but if it is proven the dev of a scamcoin, i would delist the node.

NEWS:

We are now hosting an UNO / Unobtanium super-node @ uno.node-hosting.online

add this to your unobtanium.conf as addnode=uno.node-hosting.online or use the console.

Thank you for using my service UNO community!
