<h1>About the Node
<p dir="auto">This witness node is hosted in Las Vegas by <a href="https://www.profitbricks.com/" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noreferrer noopener" title="This link will take you away from hive.blog" class="external_link">ProfitBricks. If necessary to geographically balance witnesses, it can be relocated to Germany. ProfitBricks is known for spectacular latency and uptime (99.95% guaranteed), far exceeding the 99.9% uptime required for STEEM. These servers are scalable to 62 CPU cores and 240 GB of RAM in real-time.
<p dir="auto">Security is very important to me. This node has full firewall blocking for all inbound connections except SSH ports are opened to a handful of specified IP addresses.
<h1>About Me
<p dir="auto">I am one of the top VESTS holders, having several different accounts. Because of my holdings, I have a demonstrated incentive to serve their value of Steem. I was one of the first to build the wallet from source, mining in the early hours of the first launch. I mined the second launch since the beginning as well.
<p dir="auto">I have been designing and managing computing resources for over 15 years, both as part of my salaried postion and as a consultant. I have vast experience in not only systems administration, but also in programming for scientific computing. I have authored tools in many languages, including python and Java, but have focused on C++ while working on cryptocurrencies. I have an intimate understanding of bitcoin's code base and look forward to learning about the graphene codebase that powers STEEM.<br />
In short, I have the skills and experience to manage a highly dependable witness node.
