I've reached 30K level now!! Is there any info on what running a BDN node will require? Will there be guides to help people set things up? Am I right in assuming each node will be hosting all of the blockchains, if yes, that would make setting up a BlitzNode quite a technical task.
I'd be interested if anyone was going to offer a paid service to help people set things up.
also, any eta when BlitzNodes & BDN will go live?
Congrats on reaching 30k! Yes to run a BDN node a VPS will be required to host it. This is to ensure uptime and that it has the resources to run the blockchains etc. The process for setting up the node is being mainstreamed so that it will be an easy install for any BDN operator. Guides will be made with simple instructions and easy steps. We will also assist any users that need help with install.
As of now, we have the node limit capped at 20. We have a reserve list that we will start adding from once we need more people to run nodes. I added you to the list KennyP, you are number 4. I can't give an eta at this time but development is constantly ongoing and progress is being made.
Feel free to drop by Slack for more info, or constant updates about Blitz.
