Support the work

I’m QuickMythril. I help maintain Qortium — the Core node, the Home desktop and Android app, a number of the QDN apps, and the Previewnet seed nodes and gateway that keep it reachable. 7R15M3G157U5 also helps maintain Qortium — much of the platform’s rebuild from the Qortal split is his work. Others contribute too. Keeping it running costs real money every month, and this page is where that is visible and where you can help cover it — or support 7R15 directly.

What your support goes towards

These are the recurring costs behind Qortium development and the public Previewnet infrastructure. Amounts are approximate and change with provider pricing.

Cost What it covers Amount
Regxa VPS Previewnet seed node, QDN data, and the qortium.app gateway $15 / month
Netcup VPS Second Previewnet seed node, for redundancy across providers about $7 / month
AI development tools Two assistant subscriptions used daily for research, implementation, review, testing, and documentation $212 / month
Connectivity Phone and network access used for maintenance and testing $45 / month
qortium.app domain This website and the public gateway about $37 / year

That is roughly $279 per month, plus the yearly domain charge. The target for this page is $300 per month. The two development tool subscriptions are the largest line by far, and they are listed deliberately rather than hidden under “tools” — they are general-purpose developer tools used across all of this work, not dedicated project infrastructure. AI-assisted changes go through the same review and testing as everything else.

What each level covers

Support adds up in a specific order, and the first step is small and concrete rather than a distant goal.

Monthly total What it covers
$5 / month The second seed node moves to a larger plan — more memory headroom on the node that has run out before.
$30 / month All infrastructure is covered: both seed nodes, the gateway, and the domain.
$135 / month Infrastructure plus one of the two development tool subscriptions.
$240 / month Infrastructure plus both.
$300 / month Everything above, with a margin for processing fees and currency conversion.

Past the target

Support beyond the running costs goes into better seed nodes and more development capacity — committed only once it has held steady for a few months, not the moment it is first reached.

Upgrade Now Next Extra cost
Netcup seed node 2 vCPU / 4 GB / 128 GB 4 vCPU / 8 GB / 256 GB about $5 / month
Regxa seed node 2 vCPU / 4 GB / 120 GB 4 vCPU / 8 GB / 240 GB $15 / month
Development tooling mid usage tier 4x the usage limit $100 / month each

The seed nodes are the clearest win: doubling the smaller one costs about $5 a month and directly addresses the memory pressure that has taken it offline before.

Ways to support

Monthly support is the most useful, because it is what makes the running costs predictable. Any amount helps — these are just the common ones.

These run through PayPal, and you do not need a PayPal account to use them — monthly and one-time both take debit and credit cards at the checkout. Monthly support renews automatically, and you can change or cancel it yourself at any time from Settings › Payments › Automatic payments in your PayPal account — you never have to contact me. The one-time link lets you enter any amount you like, and sets up nothing recurring.

Other platforms

If you already use one of these, they work just as well.

Ko-fi

One-time or monthly support, paid through PayPal. Monthly support renews automatically through PayPal’s Automatic Payments.

Liberapay

Open-source funding platform that takes no cut — only the payment processor’s fee applies. Payments run through PayPal, which asks you to confirm each renewal rather than charging automatically, so it needs a little more from you than the options above.

Which method gets the most through

Every platform takes something, and I would rather you knew than guessed. Roughly, out of a $10 monthly contribution:

Method Platform's cut Reaches the work
PayPal (here) no platform fee about $9.15
Liberapay no platform fee about $9.15
Ko-fi 5% about $8.65

Figures are approximate — processing fees vary by country and payment type. Everything here settles through PayPal, so the processing fee is much the same across all of them and the only real difference is the platform’s cut on top. Pick whatever is easiest for you, though — a contribution you actually make beats a cheaper one you do not.

Send crypto

You can also send QORT to me directly. One thing to understand first: Qortium Previewnet has no native coin, so this is not a Previewnet address — it is an address on the Qortal mainnet chain, and QORT sent to it moves on that chain.

QORT (Qortal mainnet)

Other coins

More coins are listed on my QDN site, and that list is being expanded. Inside Qortium, the same site is qdn://WEBSITE/QuickMythril/qm-site.

Support 7R15

7R15M3G157U5’s support options are crypto-only for now — more options may come later. Anything you send here goes directly to him, not through me.

QORT (Qortal mainnet)

Send QORT on the Qortal mainnet chain to his address. Click or tap it to copy:

Donation app

His Donation app is live on Qortium Previewnet QDN — open the Donation app in a browser, or inside Qortium at qdn://APP/7R15M3G157U5/Donation.

What support does and does not buy

Everything stays open

Nothing is paywalled or becomes subscriber-only. Every repository stays open source under its existing license.

No roadmap control

Support does not buy priority over other users, influence over what gets built, or a private channel.

No private support tier

Bugs and questions are handled the same way for everyone, in public, wherever they are filed.

Billing, refunds, and the details

Everything in this section applies to the PayPal, Ko-fi, and Liberapay options above. Crypto works differently — see the note below.

Billing and cancellation. Recurring support is billed once a month, starting the day you sign up, and continues until you cancel. For the monthly options above, cancel from Settings › Payments › Automatic payments in your PayPal account — on Ko-fi or Liberapay, do it in your account there. Either way you never have to contact me. Cancelling stops future payments and you keep access until the end of the period you have already paid for; that period is not prorated. Amounts are in US dollars, and your bank or card issuer may apply its own conversion rate and fees.

Refunds. If you were charged by mistake, changed your mind, or something here was not what you expected, email me within 30 days and I will refund it in full — no explanation needed. Refunds return to the payment method you used and usually appear within 5–10 business days.

Crypto. Crypto payments are irreversible. They go directly to the listed recipient’s chain address — mine or 7R15’s — and are not covered by the refund policy above, for either of us. Double-check the address and the chain before sending: the QORT addresses on this page are on the Qortal mainnet chain, not Qortium Previewnet.

Contact. Questions about supporting the work, billing, or refunds go to quickmythril@protonmail.com, answered personally and usually within a few days. Bugs and feature requests belong on the issue tracker of the relevant repository instead, where they stay public and searchable.

Privacy. Payments are handled entirely by the platform you choose — your card number, bank details, and billing address stay with them and are never seen or stored here. What I do see, because PayPal shows it to whoever receives a payment, is the name and email address on your PayPal account, the amount, and any message you send. Email you send is kept to reply and for payment records; supporter information is never sold, rented, or shared, and there is no marketing email. This site sets no tracking cookies and runs no analytics, though version numbers on some pages are fetched from GitHub as the page loads.

Terms. Support here is voluntary. It is not a purchase of software, a licence, a service contract, or a promise that any feature will be built or that the network will keep running. Qortium is preview software, provided as-is under the open source licences in its repositories. Support is not a tax-deductible charitable donation — this is an individual developer, not a registered charity. Qortium is an independent project: it is not Qortal, and it is not affiliated with or endorsed by the Qortal project.
