Hello everyone,
This proposal is basically to cover costs for our servers (details below) for the period of Aug-June (11months).

Current Status:
After doing some cleanup and optimizing the servers we now have "only" 2 servers running compared to 4 from before.
Sadly server prices has also gone up but still we pay roughly half of what we used to pay (we had some more expensive dedicated servers which was overkill).
A big thank you to Sparrow and Eric for the clean-up work!


Server Specs:
- 2x Shared CPU - 8 GB - 160 GB + backup

Costs:
All prices are in USD.
The VPS instances are $48 per month, plus $10 per month for backups. There is also a 25% tax.
So basically monthly cost for 1 server is 48$ + 10$ = 58$ * 1.25 = 72.5$

So, we have:
2 server = 2 x 72.5$ = 145$ in total monthly. For 11 month i will cost us 11*145$= 1,595$

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

The current price for PIVX is $0.26 -> works out to 6135 PIV for re requested period.


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

From the proposal is not clear how those vps are related to PIVX, can you give more details?
Good question :)
I took over without knowing much. I'm more acting as custodial. But now that we have cleaned up i think its a bit more clear the purpose of the servers.
Server1: document, forum, pivxfoundation and i maybe the toolbox (not sure about this one).
Server2: testnet, blockchain download

@Sparrow / @palmtree please correct me if wrong.

Just to add we have now also added one additional server with the same spec as the others, meaning the total cost will be 2393$ vs 1595$. Purpose of the new server is to be used for the homepage pivx.org

So basically this funding will cover 1595/2393= ~ 6 months of funding for all servers since we start already this week. There was a talk about adding a forth but that has not happened. If we add that i will update this post. Otherwise this funding will be Aug-Jan
