Hello everyone,
This proposal is to cover costs for our servers (details below) for the period in title!

We have in total 5 servers right now but they are different in spec. You find the details below!

Server Specs:

• 3x Shared CPU - 8 GB - 160 GB - $48
• 2x dedicated CPU - 8 GB - 160 GB $72
• Backup cost $10 for each server!

Costs:
All prices are in USD and there is also a 25% tax on top of above price.

So basically monthly cost will be
3 x $48 = $144 (shared servers)
2 x $72 = $144 (dedicated servers)
5 x $10 = $50 (backups)

Total: $338 without tax and $423 including tax!
Total for all servers: $2113

The current price for PIVX is ~$0.19 -> works out to 11131 PIV for re requested period (5 months).

I am not including the 50 PIV cost for submitting this proposal!

Reporting:
I will not be reporting out any further details.

Subject to change:
If price goes down to much before i get the funds, i will have to adjust the months the money can cover.

@gerald:
Not sure why you are so mad about the proposal! Saying this was pushed in last minute. This is the third time i do this and before me there has been others.
Not sure why the reply isn't shown on forum but i don't like censorship and wanted to address the question! This was for sure not last minute!
Plus if you were involved and followed me you would see i have been updating previous requestwith more data and what has been happening. This is something that needs to happen when the funding is about to end.
So depending on dev/team/community need, pivx price the funds last differently even if we plan it as above the need might change! Plus as of now the price dipped like 20% after i put the proposal....
I hope i answered the concern!

Hi guys and galz,

Now that the proposal has passed i just wanted to say thanks for the trust as well as give a update due to the big price dip.

I did not want to add a big extra buffer into the request but did mention that if the price changes to much i would update.
I was waiting for a bit of green day and today the BTC price atleast went up a bit so i too the oppertunaty and secured 1775$ in total.
The period Oct-Feb requires 2113 $ in cost. That is 338$ less that the requested budget or roughly 16% less.

If it was 50-100 i would cover it but since its a bigger amount i will adjust the period to Oct-Jan. Hope thats ok!
