1

Proponent Address: Wj14Wp8CD8D8K58hpxbuFSTmXyFeBvjfAoJqbHjrHRsm1pN

Requested Amount: 330$/month (±29578,7272 tokens at the average price for the last 7 days 0,06694$/astr according to Coingecko) to cover the server cost and its support.

Date: 08.07.2024

Short Description:

The snapshot service is intended for collator nodes, namely, it helps to bring the node back online in a very short time, because pruning 1000 is set.

At @bLd759 request, starting from June 1, 2023, the snapshots were switched to archive.

There is also a link to our GitHub where you can find all the information related to the Astar & Shiden Snapshot service and on our Website

Moreover, we’re excited to share our innovative service, All4Nodes.io where you can also find these snapshots. Serving as the ultimate hub for node operators and blockchain enthusiasts, All4Nodes.io offers a comprehensive suite of resources to streamline your blockchain journey. From snapshots and endpoints to explorers and comprehensive guides, All4Nodes.io equips you with everything you need to navigate the blockchain landscape easily. Unlock the full potential of blockchain technology with All4Nodes Aggregator Service developed by StakeCraft.

Background

Hi everyone,

STAKECRAFT supported Astar since it was called Plasm Network and was chosen as one of Astar’s first collators at the beginning of 2022. We are confident in the future of Astar and Shiden.

Proposal

We want to request $1980 for Q3 & Q4 2024 (330$/month) in ASTR from the Astar treasury as a reward for providing our Snapshot service. We ask this amount to cover expenses on the server and its support.

Statistics of usage

Our snapshot downloading statistics for Astar and Shiden showed that the snapshots were used for the period from June 1st to December 31st:

  • approx. 35 times per month for Astar;
  • approx. 12 times per month for Shiden.

Responsibilities

We are committed to keeping the service running and updating it regularly.

  1. The address of the fund recipient: Wj14Wp8CD8D8K58hpxbuFSTmXyFeBvjfAoJqbHjrHRsm1pN
  2. There is no cancellation period from our side for running the snapshot service
  3. Snapshots are updated on a daily basis
  4. The options to contact the manager of the funds:

A snapshot service for nodes is very necessary, soon more projects will come and the network will have more usability, so this tool can be very helpful.

Hi,
Unfortunately, I do not have all the required knowledge to give a relevant opinion on this proposal. I would like to know the opinions of the teams/projects using snapshots.
Maybe @bLd759 can give his opinion :slight_smile:

Thank you for the details, and thank you for your continuous support. =)
