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 4 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)
4 x $10 = $40 (backups)
---------------------------------------
Total: $328 without tax and $410 including tax!
Total for all servers: 12 month x 410 =4920$

The current price for PIVX is ~0.14-$0.15 -> works out to ~32000 PIV for the requested period. I will be adding some buffer (roughly 20%) as i see a big risk we go down to previous low at around 0.12 - 0.13 $.
There is also another hurdle on my side which is CEX:es going full retard, ex binance. So swapping to stable coin and payment is getting harder.
So the total request i ask for is 39 360 piv this cycle.

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

Subject to change:
If price goes way down, i will have to adjust the months the PIV can cover. I have some buffer this time so i hope this will hold.

Note (risk):
I also like to raise a concern regarding swapping to stable coin and ability to pay to data-center. This is getting harder and harder. Maybe things get better in a year, maybe it gets worse. In the latter case i can not commit to continue with this.
