Yep, imagine that $12k actually server was/is monitoring 2,160 users, users that signed up for this. So, just profiteering then. I used to run a website a few years back, over a million unique visitors per month pushing just over 30GBytes. The server rental was around $8 per month with that data capacity. So the whole thing cost $96 per year for the server and about $25 for domain name renewal each year. Not anywhere near $12k a year. What a shame Viktor, you had something good here and now you've spoiled it.

What a shame Viktor, you had something good here and now you've spoiled it. I believe you, but that was shared hosting and nowhere near what is needed to run this. P.S. the whole thing dedicated from OVH costs me about $700 / year not to mention work and maintenance, just so you know. And now i ask you, are you willing to pay $1/month for my work ?

Its not the cost. Its the underhand way you introduced it.

Perhaps you could entertain the idea of temporary and occasional donation banners. Who knows, it could work. And it might also cure the heartburn sensations some of us are experiencing.

Sad to see the stats site go this route without any warning.
I run many sites some have way more than 12k users on them and I don't pay anywhere near those levels.
Your either on some terrible host or some really over priced plan.
Storing and showing JSON data is not costly.... All your doing is storing the users JSON results once they enter there address. so where is the cost?
Feels like you just tried to rug all the users here for funds... Also zero chance that site costs 12k to run.. Stake.com don't even cost that a month!

Just mentioned above, i need a feedback, any sum will enable your stats, but don't profit on this, i'll know if so, i just need to know you are there to support me & project.

I'm sure I'm not the only one running multiple wallets with different miners and on different pools which I change somewhat more than occasionally. How will you enable my multiple stats? Is this something I have to always communicate to you?

Appreciate the quick response. But in all sincerity, adding more time and accounting work, bookmarks, and electronic housekeeping to what I already have do to keep track of my ventures doe not appear to offer the promise of an attractive or enjoyable experience such as what was before today. I'm up for a voluntary donation to keep what it was, but I am 100% in opposition to your new business path. And on a side note, it was sad that you removed the Json stats at the bottom of the stats page a week or so ago, also without communication. In any case, I've expressed my opinions and you have yours . . . good luck. Cheers!

Hey, why not keep it free and charge for some value-added features? Things like Best Share History, New Best Share Notifications etc.

It may be hard to believe, but I've never had a Facebook account, or MySpace, or TikTok, or Instagram, or Telegram, or Truth Social, or any other social media accounts. Although back in the mid 90's I did use AOL and flitted around in the chat rooms, if that counts. I'm old-school and believe in telephones, texting, USPS, email, and even some support forums. Anything more is just not a necessity for me. I really don't mind change, but it has to fit my lifestyle and beliefs without making it more complicated along the way. I really do understand what you're trying to accomplish, but I don't see that it fits with my own lifestyle or beliefs. And joining Telegram just for a donation or subscription doesn't fit. In other words, just because a man can do something, doesn't mean he should. That's ancient Chinese Wisdom . . . or Indian . . . or . . . maybe . . . I don't know. But it sounds good.

Well, difficulty has been adjusted to back under 89T & total network hashrate has been (relatively) low for a few days, not to mention only 15 pools have hit a block in the past week (normally 17-18 pools if not higher lately).
Meaning, IMO a small pool is gonna pop a Block soon (next 12 to 24 hours?) and hoping its from here!
Looking forward to this next BlockParty run, LFG!!
Good luck everyone!!
PS sucks about the fancy stats page but I've always liked the old school simple text data
