If you have credits to share, I would appreciate it. Thanks. :) Kind regards, Nils

Thank you for your research,

50 M each - do you guys run an entire zoo of probes? As I got - with just one probe, though! - some 70 Million accrued only over the last decade or so... Best, -C.

I'm assuming they either host an anchor (or more), or have multiple probes running on their networks. I have two, and average ~5 million or so per month. I love this programme!

interesting... Mine only "gets" me ~ 1 M per month. Also, before my donation today, I was at about 78 M - which, given the rate of 1 M per month, would mean that it has accrued credit points only for the last 6.5 years. Which, in turn, is strange, as this probe moved with me to my current home more than a decade ago. Best, -C.

Actually, I think I overstated my average monthly amount by quite a lot. It's not 5 million, but more like 1-1.5 million (if that). I was simply calculating my daily total by 30, but it doesn't seem consistent (as Jiri and others have explained why). Regardless Carsten, hope you're well. Always a pleasure to hear from you, and I hope you're staying safe and well :-) -M On Wed, May 20, 2020 at 2:46 PM Carsten Schiefner <carsten@schiefner.de> wrote:

This sparks a good question for the RIPE NCC team, e.g., Robert: would it be possible to get a monthly report of how many credits we earned? If it would be cumbersome to implement (and could be opt-in so that only those interested would recieve it), it would be a nice way to track it. Only an idea :-) Let me know if it already exists and I missed it. Best, -Michael On Wed, May 20, 2020 at 3:08 PM Jared Mauch <jared@puck.nether.net> wrote:

It’s pretty easy, if you login here:

https://atlas.ripe.net/user/credits/

It will tell you what you earn, eg (mine):

219,600.00 credits / hour

I sent him 20M out of my 80M I have accrued with my single probe in the past ~decade. I don't use it for anything else so... -- Mikael Abrahamsson email: swmike@swm.pp.se

neither do I. But I thought that splitting it a bit might be better - as other requests might pop up later on.

At which point, others will provide :-) And with Euro interest rates so low, what am I keeping them for anyway. -- Sanjeev Gupta +65 98551208 http://www.linkedin.com/in/ghane
