The inflation reward rate for $DVPN token holders who are securing the network by staking to Sentinel Validators is soon decreasing with a target of 15% APR.

This rate decrease is suggested by the community in-order to decrease daily emissions.

While a decrease in the rate of inflation rewards may impact the total # of $DVPN that a staker earns, this decrease has a positive impact overall by reducing the pressure on the market thereby compensating by increasing stakers $ USD value.

The Cosmos #dVPN application is ready to go and is awaiting 'Cosmos' trademark permission to launch on Android and iOS app stores.

Given the intention to launch before Cosmoverse, the Android APK installer for the Cosmos dVPN will be going live in the coming days.

Unfortunately the word 'Cosmonaut' cannot be used for naming the upcoming dVPN application for the Cosmos ecosystem as NordVPN trademarked the word 'Cosmonaut' in context of VPNs (dVPNs included).

https://nordvpn.com/creator/entertainment/?coupon=cosmonaut

The final submission for the name of the upcoming Cosmos ecosystem dVPN that does not have an existing trademark conflict is 'Cosmo dVPN'. The word 'Cosmo' includes 5 of the 6 letters of Cosmos and is the first part of the word 'Cosmonaut', so while 'Cosmo' is not perfect it is the next best alternative to represent the cultural identity of the Cosmos ecosystem in this context.

The developer account that was used to upload 'Cosmonaut dVPN' was permanently banned for even attempting to launch an application with this name. And the irony is that NordVPN never released a VPN application with the name Cosmonaut.

Regardless of the obstacles, the Sentinel ecosystem strives forward and will deliver a quality dVPN application that proliferates the culture and ethos of the Cosmos ecosystem.

The Sentinel ecosystem has effectively created a sub-community, most of whom don't even know they are using a Web3 product. Ultimately, the goal of Web3 products is to reach the mainstream. dVPNs built on Sentinel will be some of the first Web3 products to reach the Web2 masses.

The price trends of almost all great Cosmos networks in the past 6 months is very similar regardless of the amount of releases that these projects have shipped.

Liquidity is yet to re-enter the Cosmos ecosystem, however builders are not deterred and everyone is assured that the inevitable resurgence of the Cosmos ecosystem will arrive. Utility networks will return to prominence.

The liquidity hub of the ecosystem, Osmosis, continues to improve and maintain its position as the #1 best UX dex in the entire web 3 ecosystem. Atom grows stronger day by day as the awareness and the adoption of ICS shared security structure grows.

Cosmo $dVPN has been submitted to the app stores! The release of one of the first consumer utility applications in the Cosmos ecosystem to enable $ATOM as the currency of payment is almost here!

Sentinel's AI Data Layer will scale exponentially as the data miner software will be bundled into different 3rd party applications. This integration allows for application owners to allow for their users to monetize on their own bandwidth, or access special application features in exchange for providing bandwidth.

Integrating Sentinel's #dVPN technology into 3rd party applications has already been done by Breadcrumbs and Decentr. The AI Data miner software is even easier to integrate.

The Sentinel AI data miner software will soon be integrated with Independent dVPN which is a dVPN application built on Sentinel with hundreds of thousands of downloads and a very strong rating of 4.6 (Android App Store). Users will have the ability to provide bandwidth in order to be authorized to get full access to the application.

http://independentdvpn.com

Grass scaled exponentially by creating a strong community of data miners pre-launch, allowing for millions to be onboarded due to the arbitrary value of the points. This network effect allowed for Grass to establish a high valuation and have the ability to afford such a large pool of data miners.

Sentinel Scout's pool of data miners will scale with 3rd party integrations of the data miner software by applications such as dVPN/VPN applications, browsers, games etc. These applications can opt to provide their own rewards, or provide access to special features to users in-exchange for the monetization of their bandwidth as well.

This will be the first integration of a Web 3 AI utility with a #DePin consumer application.

Planned Releases for the Sentinel Ecosystem in November:

1) Launch of Cosmo dVPN - a dVPN application made for the Cosmos ecosystem, supporting $ATOM dVPN payments
2) AI Data miner incentivization program commencement with a target of 10,000 data miners
3) AI Data miner beta version platform launch
4) Testnet for new Sentinel Hub by the 15th followed by upgrade submission before the end of the month

The bull run is just beginning and #DePin/Privacy and #AI will be some of the core narratives supporting this run.

Sentinel will surpass its former glory and build an even stronger community now.

The Sentinel Scout AI Data layer platform will be integrating with the Akash Chat API to help users find links relevant to the topics that users want to retrieve data from.

For example, if a user wants to retrieve data regarding the topic of 'The tallest mountains in the world', Akash Chat will retrieve a list of relevant URLs in the required format for the user to easily input multiple URLs at once in the Scout platform.

Sentinel AI Data miners will then pick up these tasks and begin the process of retrieving the required data.

Checkout: https://chatapi.akash.network

The Sentinel Scout web application allows for multiple links to be easily submitted at once for retrieval from Sentinel's AI Data miners.

Using the Akash Chat API, users will have a seamless flow from intelligent recommendation all the way to task creation and data retrieval.

Soon Sentinel will allow for individuals to provide their bandwidth to AI Data layer usecases as well in addition to the current privacy usecases.

Sentinel is a p2p bandwidth marketplace focused on privacy and data.

The distribution of the AI Data miner will be done through existing and future dVPN applications, dVPN nodes, the Scout AI data miner client as well as integration with other 3rd party applications.

Users can test out the Sentinel scout beta at http://Scout.sentinel.co. The Android data miner can be downloaded from this website and tasks can be sent to the data miner from the panel.

Incentivized mining along with referral system and more distribution mechanisms is planned to begin soon.

Sentinel Scout will be the first user-facing AI data layer in the Web 3 ecosystem.

Why is the Sentinel Scout AI data layer a big deal? Because it will be the first user-facing decentralized AI data layer product which will allow for developers working in the AI sector to retrieve the data they need to teach their model about a specific topic.

In the current landscape, other networks allow for users to host nodes but none of them allow for users to directly access the nodes and provide the nodes with instructions. These networks may focus on larger scale b2b usecases and may opt to not create a platform accessible by anyone whether they are a solo dev or a small enterprise.

The Sentinel ecosystem excels in delivering working/user friendly products and will capture the attention of participants in the AI with a straightforward, clean, working product.

Apart from just the act of data retrieval through Sentinel AI Data Miners, the Sentinel Scout platform also allows users to:

1) Get intelligent recommendations on the relevant links for the desired topic from Akash Chat LLM
2) Store data on JKL decentralized storage
3) Use AKT decentralized compute for data cleaning and embedding

It is an end to end platform that allows for a user to:
- Easily input relevant links
- Customize the data format and other settings
- Manage storage for the data
- Clean the data and make it LLM Ready

all in one platform!

Sentinel is a p2p bandwidth marketplace servicing privacy and AI data usecases.

To visualize the Sentinel Scout platform at its most basic level, checkout http://scout.sentinel.co.

You can download an AI data miner on your Android device, power it up - and then send your own data miner scraping tasks directly from the website.

The Cosmos ecosystem is poised for a spectacular recovery and is experiencing a strong resurgence of sentiment. It has been a long journey since the $UST collapse which was one of the biggest capital deletion events in the world, and now the Cosmos ecosystem is now ready to begin its journey to become a top contender for liquidity and mindshare as it was pre UST collapse.

The Cosmos Hub will be the first scalable shared security infrastructure in the Web 3 ecosystem and will be in the limelight again for its technical merits. History will repeat and the Cosmos ICS will be recognized with high esteem in the same manner that the Cosmos SDK was recognized years ago.

Everyone can notice that the amount of negative sentiment and adversarial actions in the ecosystem have reduced very significantly in the recent times as compared to the times before. The camaraderie, positivity, and cooperation will return to the full extent.

Builders must persevere and be strong regardless of any negativity from the broader crypto ecosystem. People are deterred from building on the Cosmos SDK or even embracing the Cosmos by the broader Web 3 ecosystem.

Projects like Akash and others show that no project should use the FUD on Cosmos as ecosystem as an excuse for poor performance. Cosmos ecosystem projects have the ability to capture market share in their respective verticals from the broader web 3 ecosystem and excel in product UX to a level where it doesn't matter to the end-user if the product is built on Cosmos or not.

It does not take much time for sentiment to flip when the stars align, and when the sentiment does flip it will flip so strongly that the naysayers of the past will completely forget their stance and not acknowledge what they believed before.

Most likely everyone will agree on the sentiment flipping within the next 100 days, the reversal is almost here.

Keep building Cosmos ecosystem, the time is coming very soon.

https://agentverse.ai/marketplace?item_type=agents&types=hosted%2Clocal%2Cmailbox&dev_categories=fetch-ai%2Ccommunity&sort=relevancy

The Sentinel AI Data Layer is about to introduce a seamless platform that will provide much more functionality and optimization for the end-user as compared to an AI agent.

The first user-facing AI Data Layer console in the Web 3 ecosystem that will allow for users to:
- Discover links relevant to their topic
- Extract data in the required format
- Manage storage of the data
- Clean and format the data

The final feedback from the App stores regarding Cosmos #dVPN has arrived, detailing required changes before approval. Now we are really close.

The words 'Cosmos', 'IBC', 'ATOM Payments', 'Fiat On-Ramp', in addition to other keywords must be omitted from the applications. There must be no terminology related to payments happening via the blockchain.

It has been quite the journey to get this application approved and past the finish-line. We are almost there, one of the the first consumer utilities in the Cosmos ecosystem which accepts $ATOM is arriving shortly.

The Sentinel Scout AI Data Layer platform is almost done integrating the We3 Auth login system to allow for users to create Sentinel accounts with an email ID, Google account, or other popular forms of Web 2 login.

In the same way that Independent dVPN has gained 100s of thousands of Web 2 users, Sentinel Scout also aims to onboard a large number of Web 2 users.

In order to cater to the Web 2 audience it is important to abstract away the complexities of using a decentralized application, in this case the complexities of creating and maintaining a public/private key pair.

The first decentralized AI Data Layer that you can interact with is coming soon!
