typoooooo* haha should be "curl"

AND WE MADE IT!!! Now time to see if I can have some fun!
Took my pretty little server 3 days to sync
, but now to get used to near-cli and start poking around mainnet
.

Although now I want to run a @NEARProtocol archive node for fun
. I see data availability being an even larger issue with NEAR then on ETH (although L2 has just as many issues). @itsmarmaj archive nodes, coming 2021? (for ETH too, don't worry
)


I can't afford to run a vali yet
, on ETH or NEAR, but I still want to work on having 99+% uptime on a beacon node at least as practice, and running archive nodes for the community to access ad backups should help me learn a lot as well?

Ok, so my main goal was to delete the "random string" NEAR account I had. It was bothering my OCD... I have a few .near names (aimery, chloe, chloethedev, marmaj) but the random string was bothering me and had 1 NEAR in it. Easy fix!
I'll admit, mainnet stuff is always a little stressful
, but NEAR mainnet is a little less scary than ETH mainnet 
. (currently considering NEAR my incentivized testnet and loving it)
