(The question might have been better suited to the tor-relays mailing
list.)

AS12876 now hosts 13% of the network:
<https://compass.torproject.org/#?ases=AS12876&top=-1>

That makes it the most important autonomous system of the whole network,
before Hetzner and OVH:
<https://compass.torproject.org/#?top=10&by_as>

I strongly recommend not adding more relays there, especially as Tor
does not currently have an AS-aware path selection algorithm.
