### Cloud hosting cost of Nodes and Data Providers.

We envisage that for the next 4 months, we'll keep hosting the major/trusted nodes and Data Providers until our slashing and token engineering are released into the protocol before allowing the public to run major ones. 

However, anyone can run a Data Provider and Node at the moment, but they won't be verified or recommended to be used by the public.

### Hiring: DevOps engineer, Fullstack Engineer, Additional Golang Engineer

This role are currently contracted to save cost and burn rate for the next 4 months. We want to make them more permanent.

### Gas Fees payment for our Nodes

For updating Oracle contracts onchain for Data providers, the node will be paying gas in FTM.

### Bounty program
Initiatives targeted at onboarding developers and data providers onto the DigiOracle ecosystem.

Target: 10 dApps using DigiOracle on Fantom (December 2023)
