My first witness update log after 72 hours of the initial witness announcement post.
Introducing steemd.techcoderx.com
As I'm currently syncing my Hivemind database (23.5M blocks as of writing this post), I will be introducing a steemd RPC API endpoint first before announcing the full RPC endpoint.
https://steemd.techcoderx.com
Compiled with LOW_MEMORY_NODE=OFF
, CLEAR_VOTES=OFF
and SKIP_BY_TX_ID=OFF
and replayed with all plugins enabled (including full account history), steemd.techcoderx.com API may be used for any non-Hivemind JSON-RPC 2.0 calls, such as wallet apps like Steem Keychain, or block explorers that requires access to account history API.
The above API will NOT work with any condensers or any applications that require Hivemind API calls. Such API will be made available at a later date when the database sync completes.

SPUD 8 participation
It's the first day of the month, therefore it's time for another SPUD. For those who are new to this, it is a campaign on Steem that encourages Steemians to transfer their liquid STEEM to vesting as much as possible.
Today I have transferred 26.176 STEEM to vesting (aka power up). This time I'm doing this using my own steemd.techcoderx.com API to perform the transaction as shown in the GIF on your right 😉
For reference, this is only a 1.66% increase in vesting shares, which is an insignificant amount for most people.

Obviously this is also a SPUD participation post in addition to a witness update, therefore post rewards will be set to 100% power up.
