Legend:

†Indicates a bitcoin node failure or some other reason which I have been made aware of. Members who are absent for too long will be removed without notice and will have to start over if they want to rejoin.

*Indicates a person who has not submitted a report for a long time. Please do so immediately to avoid getting removed without notice.

#Indicates a person whose report was not processed because it is incorrect. Usually this is because you misnumbered your days. Please fix your report as soon as possible.

Report generation is semi-automated now, so if you see any error in the progress report like your name isn't listed correctly, and so on, please let me know so I can fix it.

Please do not quote this post when you type your status reports. It makes compiling this list slightly harder.

If you don't meet the minimum rank requirements, your post will be ignored.

Congratulations to SensitiveEyes for completing the challenge!

Check out the new Lightning Network Quest - earn merits and sats for running a Lightning node.

What about asking the people to share a screenshot of their fully synchronized Full node every three months? I don't know if something can be offered in exchange, maybe you can offer some merits, which may motivate the participants to run their node for a long time. How is that? Moreover, it would be good to have a spreadsheet of the participants who completed the challenge. I can help you maintaining the spreadsheet if you want.

The problem with asking for screenshots every three months is that most of them have probably abandoned this thread by now.

But you are welcome to keep a spreadsheet if you want.
