Today, we’re going to begin shutting down the V2 network, with the final shutdown occurring by the of this month. As a Node Operator on the V2 network, you will likely see some changes occur on your Node.
The V3 network was created using the lessons we learned from the previous version, and we couldn’t have made this amazing new network without the contributions. We want to thank you immensely for your efforts and hope you will turn your V2 Nodes into Storage Nodes on the V3 network.
Our new V3 network is much more performant, efficient, and reliable than the V2 network, and we’re expecting our first paying customers by the end of the month. That means operating a Node on the V3 network should be much more lucrative than it was on the V2 network.
Make a gift to the owners of really verified nodes and “convert” their nodes into verified v3 with 100% payouts. I think v2 operators will be happy with this gift
i have received last month 0.003 storj… and over 50 on v3…so i already uninstall it…it was storing about 300 MB.
The shutdown should be made 2-3 mounts ago
PS you cn also jump in conversations here! I know soe folks miss rocketchat. but this format is so easy to organize and search for answers. The camaraderie is still here too, try with a fun attitude and maybe you will enjoy!
Is it OK to switch off V2 node and delete left data? Seemes like api.storj.io doesn’t accept connections anymore.
{“level”:“error”,“message”:“Unable to connect to bridge: https://api.storj.io, reason: connect ETIMEDOUT 35.239.195.103:443”,“timestamp”:“2020-01-24T08:58:37.322Z”}
v2 is actually already mostly shut down
we’re having a ceremonial final shut down next week
but it’s already safe for v2 operators to delete their data.
My nodes were disconnected from bridge about a week ago and were not able to reconnect back. So it actually already down.
I stopped nodes and deleted remaining data (~ 15 GB) 2 days ago.
