Started Seed Node

As one responsibility of a witness, starting from today I run the seed node too. The URL is

85.10.196.211:2001

Server Specification

Based on Your guide to setting up a Witness Server (STEEM-in-a-box HF19), I built the seed node with specification below:

• RAM: 32 GB
• CPU: 8 cores
• Storage: 2x2TB HDD
• Network: 1gbit/s
• Location: Germany VPS

Necesary means has been taken to sufficiently secure the server, such as:

• Closing all incoming ports, except two used by SSH and Steemd.
• Moving SSH port to some high random number to prevent scanner bot.
• Installing fail2ban program to block SSH brute force attacks.
• Installing NTP to ensure time synchronisation.

Moreover, it is provided by the best cloud service provider, @privex, whose CEO, @someguy123, is a respected top 20 witnesses in Steemit. @privex accept STEEM, are affordable, and sell servers with a Zero Block Miss SLA. (Tell them that you are referred by me to get 10% discount!)
