BRIEF INTRO
Histatu Network has been a huge passion project of mine -- unfortunately running for an accumlative 8 months over 3 years with two separate shutdowns due to the lack of time.
Since my second start of hosting a Minecraft server, this time known as Histatu Network, I've managed to compilate a team of over 25 paid admin positions, record over 50,000 total player visits with over 122,000 hours of total playtime for all players, and exactly $4,044.81 in revenue in just 8 months of hosting. Keep in mind, this server was running for an accumlated 8 months, but within the total span of the last 3 years. We have went through two separate halts simply because I had practically zero time to maintain the server.
SERVER DETAILS
This server runs on BUNGEECORD and currently has 3 separate servers in one dedicated server.
The main gamemodes this server runs is FACTIONS and SURVIVAL. The other mentioned servers are the BungeeCord login and Hub servers.

MISCELLANEOUS INFORMATION
Probably good to know before buying, but this server has been listed on bought auctions twice for the site minecraft-server.net for premium advertising in 1st and 2nd place respectively. Both 2-week advertising costs totaled to $402. Obviously promoting servers on server lists are completely optional and are typically extremely and unnecessarily overpriced, and expensive in general.
The server may still be listed on numerous server listing sites. All ownership for server listing accounts can be given upon request.
All further server accounting related services will be transferred to the buyer's ownership & posession. Original emails will NOT be given (sorry, it's my now-used music artist LLC email), but will be changed and fully transferred.
FURTHER QUESTIONS, DMS, AND OFFERS
My Discord is Dimotai#1212, feel free to add me and ask away any questions.
Before the publication of this post, the highest bidder was asking $500 for the entirety of this server. Feel free to DM me, and if you are a seriously interested buyer, I will keep you updated on the details of selling the server.
I will note that a $2,500 offer will result in an instant sell of the server. Probably won't happen, but I'll just put that out there in case someone out there is willing to do so. You'd never really know if anyone wants to either; the top donor on Histatu Network contributed $780 alone to the total server's revenue pool.
PERSONAL & SERVER BACKGROUND AND CREDIBILITY
In 2014, I ran a 1.7.9 Minecraft server via BungeeCord hosted by MCProHosting known as "PvPCraft Network." During this year of my life, I had tons of free time, and even though I was still in middle school being a classic ape in my classes, I combined my passion for Minecraft and knowledge of programming and overall techy stuff to boot up a server. At the peak of this server being run, I was hitting over 3,000 daily visits to the server, with an average of 100 people online at one time. I generated slightly over $2,000 USD over those brief 8 months of running this server, but unfortunately it was forcibly shut down due to my negligence in security. Long story short, I was at a birthday party with friends, brought my laptop over to play MC, decided to leave to get food & cake for 5 minutes, came back to find out the next day a couple attendants at the party had accessed my control panel files, opened ops.txt, and added themselves to the list while I was gone for those 5 minutes. As anyone would know, once one player gets their hands on dangerous admin capabilities, all hell breaks lose operators can simply make more operators. And since I didn't create a routine backup either, being the 13 year old I was at this time of running the server, my skillset in programming & hosting was clearly there (I did tens of custom plugins via Bukkit/Spigot API using the now nostalgic Eclipse IDE and abused the $1 .com domain DNS registration in GoDaddy). TLDR: I have always have been extremely experienced in hosting since the age of 13. At this point, I lacked certain parts of experience in terms of the business side of things, but had the practical skillsets and tons of free time.
I started a server back up again during the COVID-19 era, catalyzed by the virtual learning environment for the majority of the world. Felt like it was a decent opportunity to boot up a Minecraft server again (after staying hardstuck at D3 for 3 acts in Valorant), so I decided to spend about 2 days downloading and setting up all the plugins I could recall, add new features, import the spawn via WorldEdit, setup a donor store, add this server to server listings, and all the usual stuff for server setup. And although this server has been running strong for 3 years in total timespan (since 2019), we've temporarily halted the server twice due to college, career, or simply other interests. TLDR: I booted up a long-time passion project I, along with many other peers, wanted to do at a very young age (become a Minecraft server owner), and although it worked out extremely well for the time being, I realized that I had pratically zero time to manage such a passion as I entered through the second decade of my life. This time around, I had the experience, skillsets, but unfortunately, no free time.
