Bandwidth-sharing apps (Honeygain possibly being the most well-known) are growing in popularity since people want paying alternatives to the crypto testnets and crypto "seasons" so common now in new projects.  People want stability and payment in fiat dollars as an addition to their high-potential crypto cousins. One popular method of running projects and services is with a VPS, which stands for Virtual Private Server. These are located in large datacenters, so therefore they are not residential connections.  Services and projects often prioritize residential IP addresses and connections, sometimes even banning you from their service if they catch you running their service in a VPS. These 4 bandwidth-sharing services are actually paying and also allow the use of both residential and datacenter VPS:   1. ProxyRack ProxyRack allows for both types of connections, residential (home) and VPS (datacenter).  Installation can be on Windows or in Docker. Join ProxyRack ------...
