Milestone Delivery 📫

With time running like the wind and July 2022 approaching, the 2nd milestone of the Veblocks grand is close to beeing fullfilled: Delivering 12 months of free and unrestricted access to the VeChain blockchain. This includes access to mainnet as well as testnet and a solo-sandbox.
At their peak the nodes provided around 150 million requests per day to all the vechain developers and users. The nodes were always fast and reliable, updated to the newest vechain-thor software and are now used across the whole vechain-ecosystem.

With this delivery notice I can hopefully fullfill the trust layed in me by the vechain foundation for the 2nd milestone and also apply for support for the 3rd milestone - another 12 months of free access to the veblocks nodes. I also apply for a slight amend of the 3rd milestone. Caused by higher data-center facilitiy cost and more users needing support, I propose a new 3rd milestone as shown below.

All steps to the 2nd milestone have been accomplished.

Milestone 1 — VeBlocks backend upgrade ✔️

Milestone 2 — Uptime, maintenance and improvements for 12 months ✔️
