VF Validierung @validierungcc

Our tezos baker runs again. We had some problems with our alert configuration and completely redone them, so we get notified sooner when something breaks.

We did a major server upgrade for our Polkadot validator as well as for 2 of 4 Kusama validators.

We increased commission for our Polkadot validator from 0% to 1%

Our Kusama validator "Heidelberg" is currently chilled (offline). There's a hardware fault.

Due to problems with the Tezos Quebec Protocol Upgrade, the payouts for Round 822 and 823 were delayed. We apologize for that.

We apologize for any delayed tezos payouts over the holidays. All rewards have been sent now.

Our tezos baker was offline for about 4 hours. This was caused by our provider and despite maximum available SLA. The payout to our nominators will be as high as if our baker would have been online the whole round. We will take the loss. Thank you for your trust.

Our Polkadot and Kusama payouts weren't on time. This was caused by an unreliable RPC server. This is fixed now.

Our Kusama Validator "Berlin" was offline due to an error related to the hardware. The validator runs again, but we are still investigating what caused it.

This morning validator Kusama Augsburg was chilled. We apologize. Disk space ran full and our monitoring service, which would have warned us long before, sent old data due to an error that didn't terminate the service. We will bring the validator back online soon.

We deployed our 4th validator on Kusama, named after the Bavarian city of Augsburg. 🎉

We are now running a block producer for the #wax blockchain. wax is a feeless blockchain optimized for NFTs. Our bp is called "vfalidierung" [sic]

We just started our 4th Kusama validator "Augsburg".🎉The address is FDAugsNraejDeJHt8n4MSc5Gvn9zuAibNQ9qFQdGNVWYvtx

Because of a bug in the kusama software our Kusama validator "Berlin" is chilled. We keep it offline for the day to do some maintenance and switching the database to paritydb.

We had an incident today. We appeared offline to the Kusama network and got chilled. We got everything working again and discuss improvements to prevent this in the future. In two eras we are validating on Kusama again.

Our homepage validierung.cc is now available over #IPv6

We migrated the last validator to a new host. We are finally Hetzner-free. 🥳

All our validators are off Hetzner now, except Kusama Berlin, which will soon follow.

We released a Docker image for the crypto currency Deutsche eMark. Only amd64 supported atm. hub.docker.com/r/validierungc… @deutsche_emark

We are currently in the process of migrating away from Hetzner. This is because of their recent actions against Solana validators.
