Yes we do :)

I've been waiting to see if someone else wants to contribute a server in the asian region, and if no one has resources available, maybe I'll spin up an AWS instances myself.

I'm working on a project in China / Korea/ Japan that will help steem scale a lot.
Hope we will have contributers for some strong nodes here;)

That's awesome, look forward to see what you're up to!

@jesta I've some very rich friends in china since I've been doing business with china for years, but they are afraid to take any risk and being involved in something that could be illegal soon or later.
So what's the solution to make Steem scale in china and other pro censorship countries ?

the blockchain is decentralized so cannot be censored, but chinese gov can stop people who use this. And force them not to. The Law is the Law.
That's quite simple to understand. What you post on blockchain will stay, OK that's right, but first you need to be able to post (if they dont block all IP / nodes/ access), then if you do, it can be illegal for you soon or later if they decide that it should be.
People can go in prison for doing this, so Nobody can stop the blockchain that's right, but people can be stopped very easily.

So I'm really trying to work on this but it will be very difficult i think for Steem to Scale in China.
In Japan that should be a bit easier.

any suggestion would be great, anyone can contact me in the steemit.chat @ekitcho
