Short Description:
The snapshot service is intended for collator nodes, namely, it helps to bring the node back online in a very short time, because pruning 1000 is set.

Background:
Hi everyone,
STAKECRAFT supported Astar since it was called Plasm Network and was chosen as one of Astar’s first collators at the beginning of 2022. We are confident in the future of Astar and Shiden.
Proposal We want to request $1980 for Q3 & Q4 2024 (330$/month) in ASTR from the Astar treasury as a reward for providing our Snapshot service. We ask this amount to cover expenses on the server and its support.
Statistics of usage Our snapshot downloading statistics for Astar and Shiden showed that the snapshots were used for the period from June 1st to December 31st:
approx. 35 times per month for Astar; approx. 12 times per month for Shiden. Responsibilities We are committed to keeping the service running and updating it regularly.
The address of the fund recipient: Wj14Wp8CD8D8K58hpxbuFSTmXyFeBvjfAoJqbHjrHRsm1pN There is no cancellation period from our side for running the snapshot service Snapshots are updated on a daily basis The options to contact the manager of the funds are:
