I'll do my best to not disappoint you, and will compete to have the best performance, as I already do on the testnet with a crappy temporary server.

I promise to comply with the **minimum** requirements listed here if elected:
I promise to comply with the **minimum** requirements listed here if elected:
- Region: SH (Australia or New Zealand)
- Region: SH
- CPU: Xeon or i7 (8 cores)
Australia or New Zealand if possible.
- RAM: 64 GB (more if I can)
Although it would be great for decentralization, Testnet showed running a Node there
- Disk: 1 TB/SSD
might cause poor performances for notarizations, so if I can find a good server there, it'll be there, but if not,
- Bandwidth: 1 Gbps
I'll have to choose another location to achieve best results (thinking about South America).
- CPU: Xeon or i7 (4 cores)
- RAM: 96 GB
- Disk: 1 TB/SSD (2 TB/NVME if possible)
- Bandwidth: 500 Mbps
Server will be ready on time, don't worry!
