Funk's Ultimate Node Controller (FUNC) - 3241872357

Funk’s Ultimate Node Controller (FUNC) is “one-click” solution for node runners on Windows, Mac, and Linux. It installs the node as an auto-starting service ensuring maximum uptime even on machines configured to auto-update/restart. The UI for FUNC is a local web dashboard, allowing u…

What needs to happen so that we can put incentivization of any online account as measure 8 of GP8?

I dug up this comment from a community member, and I think it’s worth a look @Nokuaru GP8 Measures DRAFT for Community Feedback - #40 by Nokuaru

For this quarter, as I stated above I support the 500k node runners measure.

I would say that the instant finality with one block economic finality is the main drive here…

You can achieve this only with VRF (PPOS algorand thing) which is reducing load on servers and network traffic. So I believe this perfectly shows the tech superiority of Algorand over all other chains…

Here is a snapshot of my Netdata dashboard showing bandwidth usage. Inbound is usually <5 Mbps, and Outbound is very low with occasional spikes. The more stake you have, the more likely you are to propose blocks, but I don’t think that is going to have a dramatic effect on your bandwidth usage.
