I want use this opportunity to tender a formal apology to NotATether and the community for my gross misconduct, I admit to previously altering my node output which I shouldn’t have, and I acknowledge my mistake and take full responsibility for it. But I promise to be of good conduct moving forward and never to indulge in such behavior ever again, and I will start syncing my node from the beginning just to make up for my errors and to ensure everything is genuine and verifiable.
I am very sorry for breaking your trust and I hope to make things right through my actions going forward.
Thanks…
