Over the past four years, we have borne the costs of hosting a free node for each community member, offering a slot at 50 cents, and enabling payment in FDR. However, we are now facing widespread inflation and a more than 50% increase in server prices from our partner.

These adjustments are essential to align our rates with the current operational costs. We understand that these changes may be disappointing, but they are necessary to maintain the quality and viability of our services. The new price remains competitive and reflects the cost increases we have faced.
We hope you understand our position. These decisions were not made lightly, but they are crucial for ensuring the sustainability of our ecosystem. We thank you for your understanding and continued support.
Sincerely,
The FDR Team
