Heya everyone, I’m currently working in the Bay Area and have been running various nodes on the side. My previous experience with blockchains consists of hosting Avalanche, Ethereum and Concordium nodes (for mainnet) - with added experience of running various testnet nodes as well. I have a background in DevOps, cloud computing and sysadmin roles. I’m also an open source contributor and I have a philosophical drive for decentralization and bringing power to the people. It matters a lot to me. …

Heya guys, this is my node! Please consider voting me up

I will always be there to help anyone out and happy to share my knowledge. I’m running nodes for other blockchains as well.

If anyone is interested in Philosophy, I’m your man. Currently listening through a podcast series on Plato’s republic that I can strongly recommend.
I’m down to geek in on:
Philosophy, Vim, Arch Linux, Programming, and several other very nerdy topics.

Hello Everyone

I am Akbrhx :

Why pick my validator ?
first i want to say i have no experience at all about being a validator, so i searched for an answer myself about what is a validator node, and what i found, it turns out that node validators are very important to run a blockchain, there are several reasons why some people decide to run nodes on their devices, but the most important thing is money. Almost every blockchain network has an incentive program for those who contribute to it.

But money doesn’t always have to be the main motivation. Some people just want to contribute to the blockchain by hosting a node as I am very curious, this is the first Node Validator in my life, maybe by accepting me as a node validator I can learn more about it, thanks.

I am working in As A Barista who curious with Blockchain .
I communicate in English and Indonesian

I am active at Aptos discord channel to help what i know, but so much asking tho in setting and troubleshooting nodes for me.

My telegram @Paaran0id

Technical details : Using VPS Azure, Linux (ubuntu 20.04), Standard D4ads v5 (4 vcpus, 16 GiB memory) Premium SSD LRS 512Gb, Max IOPS 2300, Max throughput (MBps)
