Dear Kusama Community,
Polkashots.io was the first snapshot service for validators and node operators available since Early 2021. During its time, it provided a valuable service to validators and Parity engineers alike, that ensured reliability of our network.
Warp Sync, that make snapshot services redundant, therefore we stopped our service in April 2023. We are seeking the reimbursement of 74% of our cloud spend for the Jan-Apr period. The remainder will be borne by us.
This is a follow-up of Polkadot referendum 10 that failed. This Small Spender proposal for 332.5 KSM is paired with a Polkadot proposal for 999 DOT. Total is 13,490 USD. Thank you for your consideration.
