DSound witness update: Upgraded to v0.20.10 of Steem blockchain
Hi Steemian friends! :)
DSound community witness has some news to share with all steemians.
@dsound witness update
Fixed some intermittent issue in Network Interface cards
A week after our intervention on the boxes network interface cards we have reason to confirm that, with this new driver, we completely eliminated this issue! :)
Upgrade to v0.20.10 of Steem blockchain
This latest release as of yesterday of Steem core blockchain code corrected a security issue, so we decided to upgrade our witnesses. The upgrade was smooth, no problems to register. It was not expectable either as this was just a small fix update.
Technical Infrastructure
Our infrastructure is still the same, but the SSDs have grown double size! We total a dozen blocks missed and performance is even better because we made some networking improvements in the datacenter internal network.
All boxes are behind firewalls, IDS and power redundancy systems. The server characteristics are subject to upgrade or revision as needed.

@dsound witness rank
We are now at #96 position in the witnesses ranking and finding our way through the hard lane back to the top 50. It is very difficult but we are positive that we deserve to be back in top 50, because this is a DSound Community effort and our Tribe is one of the most active in Steem! Can you please help us get there?
TL;DR
Our nodes are now running the latest version (v0.20.10) of the Steem Blockchain core code
It is hard to be so down (#96) in the witnesses ranking, so we're counting on you to help pass the word to all your friends or simply by reposting this post, so we can get
@dsoundwitness up the ladder! :)
Thanks a lot to all fellow members of DSound tribe, all Steem members, developers and music addicts like us for your continued support and encouragement on this project! Without you we wouldn't be here assuming this responsibility. Big thanks to all of you!
But, still don't know what DSound is?
It's ok... You are at the right place!
Let's share what it is with you right now...
What is DSound?
DSound is a decentralized web application that allows anyone to upload, listen and discover music and other sounds stored on top of the IPFS Network.
It uses STEEM blockchain as a persistent database, so by posting their sounds the authors can earn rewards in cryptocurrency, when other users like their content, which can be exchanged easily to US Dollars, Euros or any other currency, with a look and feel very similar to Soundcloud.
