@ManfredKarrer, I've assigned you to this role, as I believe you're the only contributor running pricenode(s) at the moment.

cbeams avatar Nov 15 '17 20:11 cbeams

I've assigned @Emzy and @mrosseel here, as both are also running pricenodes, per https://github.com/bisq-network/exchange/blob/f73395f6f1e578909f81d4f3b5be80211ae3e01a/core/src/main/java/io/bisq/core/provider/ProvidersRepository.java#L37-L41

I've just assigned myself to this role, as I have now taken over one of @ManfredKarrer's pricenodes. See the commit / PR above for details.

2018.02 report

This is my first report, now that (per the comment above), I've now taken over one of Manfred's pricenode onion addresses.

This pricenode is now backed by code at the HEAD of my cbeams/bisq-pricenode:refactor branch, which will be merged asap (see https://github.com/bisq-network/pricenode/pull/7). See my comment in Pricenode Maintainer (#5) for more details on that.

In any case, I'm servicing between 25 and 40 clients with this pricenode at any given time, and it looks like it's going to run me around $7 / month on Heroku to keep it running.

2018.03 report

Alas, I have still not finished the review and merge of bisq-network/pricenode#7, and therefore other pricenode operators have not yet upgraded to it. In the meantime, however, my pricenode instance, which is built from that PR branch, has been up and running without issue for a couple months. So I think we can call it a well-tested change at this point ;)

Note that @sqrrm attempted to start running his own pricenode this month, but ran into issues with his hosting provider. This instance was being built from the PR branch above as well, and that all seemed to work out fine for him. Good luck, @sqrrm, on getting your pricenode up and running elsewhere soon.

My instance ran without any issues on Heroku this month at a cost of $7.00. I'm running v0.7.1-SNAPSHOT from commit bisq-network/bisq-pricenode@545887c.

@Emzy and @mrosseel, could you please report here on this issue about the pricenode instances you're operating in the same way that @ManfredKarrer and I have done above? Thanks.

2018.05 report

No change from last month's report, but I'll format it a little more rigorously, that others might do the same:

Hosting: Heroku Cost: $7.00 Version: v0.7.1-SNAPSHOT (from commit bisq-network/bisq-pricenode@545887c) Notes: none

  • 1 bitcoinaverage subscription
  • 1 pricenode running

No issues occurred this month

TODO: upgrade to new version of pricenode, since I run on docker this probably implies updating the docker file.

mrosseel avatar Jun 01 '18 14:06 mrosseel

My nodes are now running with the new version of price-node.

ManfredKarrer avatar Jun 03 '18 10:06 ManfredKarrer

Are the price-nodes on the clearnet or on the onion side ? (Btw, I have a VPS munin master node installed and running, I will give details on https://github.com/bisq-network/bisq-monitor nextly).

ghost avatar Jun 03 '18 10:06 ghost

They are running as hidden service but some are accessible clearnet as well.
