Steem Scanner (https://steemscanner.com) is back up after the server crash
Hello everyone,
Just a quick update to let you know that https://steemscanner.com was offline for a few days, but it's back online now.
What happened?
The Hetzner server crashed, and I ended up losing all the databases. Because of that, the full node at steemd.blazeapps.org went down and took the scanner with it.
Current status
I've spent the last few days getting everything rebuilt from scratch. The full node is fully synced now, and the Steem Blockchain Scanner is alive again.
Temporary API restrictions
One thing to note: I've put some temporary restrictions on public calls made to steemd.blazeapps.org. I'm keeping it locked down for a few days to do some hardening and fine-tune the Nginx setup. Public access will be back to normal once that's sorted out.
Thanks for bearing with me while I got things fixed up!
