The witnesses voting importance

in WORLD OF XPILAR3 years ago

Hello WORLD OF XPILAR's Community members!
I'm @steem.history, who is steem witness.

I would like to talk about the witness voting importance today. Do you know the problem of the current Steem chain? The steem chain problem is that the stability of the chain is lacking. Typically, the chain stability can be expressed as a number of Node. Many nodes are that they are showing the chain stability. Steem had many nodes. There was a lot of backup witnesses, including the TOP witness. But by 1 year ago HF23 we lost many witnesses. Although it has been a year, the backup witnesses number is very lacking.

We can see it more clearly through Hive chain compared to Hive chain.

This is a list of Steem chain witnesses .

What can you feel? I think that two greatly a problem

1st problem :

There are too few witnesses of the Steem chain compared to the Hive chain. As mentioned above, the stability of the chain generally can be evaluated as the number of nodes. The steem chain lacks so backup witnesses. steem chain need more backup witnesses. If you are reading this article, please contact me if you want to work as a backup witness of the Steem chain. I will help you. Steem witness nodes do not guarantee high yields. But I think that it will be your good experience to run it.

2nd problem :

There are a lot of witnesses who don't serve the steem. They left steem a long time ago, but still voting for them continues. If you still support them, you will lose the place of new backup witnesses. Please withdraw their votes that left long ago.

Hi @steem.history

What you bring up is very important, I want to "pinned" your post to make it more visible.
I also want to make a post about witnesses, it's been a while since I did that.

Una lista actualizada, nos ayudaría mucho a saber a cuáles son los testigos que actualmente están en Steem y podríamos hacer publicaciones en las comunidades para que los usuarios estén también informados, como representante de país de Venezuela podría informar a la comunidad en General, puedes ayudar en esto si lo deseas, por favor cuando hagas esto podrías etiquetarme para apoyar en la propagación de la información! Gracias de antemano @xpilar

Greetings friend @steem.history.

It is very important the functions that you perform, so it is necessary to make a campaign to attract more witnesses, who are able to fulfill this important work.

I am at your disposal to carry out any kind of publicity that will allow us to multiply the information.

Thank you. I will strive for it.
Steem on!

Muy buenas noches @steem.history interesado y comprometido en ayudar en la causa. podría brindarme mas información. Saludos

¡Gracias!

Hi @steem.history, I would like to know more about backup witness and how the process should start.

Backup witness nodes require higher specifications than I thought.
Ubuntu must be available, and RAM must have 64G or more and 1TB SSD.

Thank you for that info. Yes, that requirement is quite high.
Just for curiosity, what are the sources to find out more specifications!

Hola, llevo poco tiempo en la comunidad pero tengo interés en conocer mas cosas.
Donde puedo leer, que es un testigo, sus funciones, como ser testigo y sus beneficios tanto a la comunidad como personales.
Gracias de antemano
