Without your and Marky's full node, @steemflagrewards would be dead in the water. I don't think you should have to run a node at a loss so I fully support this proposal.

Furthermore, if there is a business out there with significant income, I think it is reasonable to pay a small premium to cover costs. Perhaps this can be based on amount of API calls relative to their income.

As for SFR, I wished there was more we can do but we ourselves seem to be running on the fumes of altruism.

Without our moderators willing to put in the time to approve downvotes, we would have no service to offer users willing to flag token manipulators. I digress. I wish you the best with this proposal. ♥️
