As the recent flooding attacks on the Monero network were going on, I decided to set up a new Monero node to do my part for this amazing project. It went live April 6, 2024.
Initial testing was with a small group of acquaintances and I expanded that out by publishing the node on Monero.fail.
It has been running very well so I’m making it official here for the 7 people who may see this.
The node’s address is xmr.grub.net:18089, feel free to use it. It has been quite responsive and I will increase the VPS’ specs as need demands.
That all said, a few hundred GBs of disk, decent CPU, RAM, etc., isn’t free so if you want to toss a bone this way, that would be cool.

Bones or not, this is a start and it is here to stay. I’ve been a rabid cypherpunk since the 1990’s and won’t stop now.
Do your part, tell people about Monero!
