Biweekly update on @Humanode vol.41

11th January — 25th January

The number of mainnet validators is increasing, Humanode Chain reaches 1 million blocks, The team updated Rust and Substrate to the latest versions, the Humanode website gets a new look, Humanode Hangout is back, and more!

TL;DR
Dear community members, it’s time for our biweekly report on Humanode! The last two weeks were full of hard work — so let’s point out some key updates.
First and foremost, Humanode Chain has just crossed an exciting milestone of 1 million blocks. The great thing is that from the genesis block, the Humanode Network with a unique security mechanism and equal validators remained up and running for the whole time without any interruptions. The mainnet hit more than 360 validators and the numbers keep increasing. With the mainnet, Humanode became the first crypto-biometric blockchain network where one human = one node = one vote that brings Sybil resistance and innovative governance models to the crypto industry using biometric technology. And it is always a pleasure or us to see the network grows!
During these weeks, Humanode teams were working tirelessly making significant progress with current tasks. The Humanode’s development progress was minutely shared in the regular update. As for the network development, they implemented CI fixes, bumped substrate fork to locked/polkadot-v0.9.36 and Rust to Version 1.66.1, added Workspace to more CI jobs, Machine, Extrinsic, and Overhead commands for benchmarking. While working on the Humanode Web App, the team updated confirmation pages (Enhanced UI and text). As for Oauth2 Server, they rewrote it into multi-crate for dependency isolation, and enhanced parsing by switching to envfury. Also, the team updated dependencies for the Websocket tunnel, moved the contract address into the query for Payments-svc, and switched to Proper get request with a query string for Payments-svc.
And last but not least, the Humanode website has got a new design. Give it a look!
That’s all for today. All the love, all the power!

We are working on many exciting projects this year that will help Humanode scale even further.

What's up, human nodes and friends?

Hey there, human nodes and friends!

As you all know, the goal for Humanode is to become a governance-led protocol and fully decentralize the network’s decision-making by 2026. However, you might wonder what is being done to properly secure the network until we implement the Proposal pool - Vortex - Formation trio.

So in order to make things much more transparent for the community, we have crafted an article describing How pre-onchain DAO will work and highlighting several critical security measures that were put in place so that the Humanode network, during its early days, is adequately secured until it matures into an established network.

Give it a read to get more technical details about the implementation that we have today.

Hey hey, human nodes and friends!

Seeing a lot of questions and speculations on who has made it to the list of top validators, how many sessions (epochs) they were part of, and how much reward they got, we have created a link where everyone can see the latest data and information regarding the performance of human nodes. We believe it will help answer all your questions and ensure transparency, which is our first and foremost goal.

25th January — 8th February

Bot Basher for Discord beta test on February 9, Validator Ranking is here, Pre-onchain DAO era highlights — sudo module and multisig, Regular dev updates are out, Humanode Hangout with the team, and more!

TL;DR
Hello, and welcome to our early-February biweekly update on Humanode! The last two weeks were full of hard work, a lot of significant news in this report worth your attention!
First and foremost, the Humanode team announced the start of the “Humanode Bot Basher for Discord Beta test” which will begin tomorrow, Thursday, February 9th, 2023. With the relentless uphill battle against scams, spam, bots, and Sybil resistance being a serious issue for many Discord servers and channels, the team has decided to utilize its cryptobiometric technology to allow servers to create Sybil-resistant roles, channels, and services. The Beta test is scheduled to run for a week, and users will be able to experience everything from the sign-up to gaining access to “bot-free” channels, and Sybil-resistant voting. After the initial Beta test, all data concerning the Bot Basher will be wiped from the server before the initial launch. Once the Humanode Bot Basher for Discord is successfully launched, the Humanode Dev team intends to prepare for the release of Bot Basher for Telegram.
The Humanode mainnet is up and running. Seeing a lot of questions and speculations on who has made it to the list of top validators, how many sessions (epochs) they were part of, and how much reward they got, the Humanode team has created a link where everyone can see the latest data and information regarding the performance of human nodes. Check out your rank!
The current Humanode’s development progress was minutely shared in the Huamnode regular update.

Considering Oauth2 Web, the team integrated payments.
In the latest blog post, the Humanode team goes over how the pre-onchain DAO will work and highlights several critical security measures that were put in place so that the Humanode network, during its early days, is adequately secured until it matures into an established network. A must-read!

Konnichiwa to all Human nodes!

The Humanode core team is happy to announce the public release of the Humanode Bot Basher Beta test!

After a successful integration into the Humanode Discord server on the 9th and some internal testing, we are officially opening the doors, inviting everyone to join us in the public beta of the Bot Basher.

Beta testers will be able to verify themselves as a unique living human being, and enter the Sybil-resistant channels on our Discord server. As part of our beta testing, we will shortly be announcing a brand new contest, in which the final winner will be decided by Sybil-resistant voting that will happen in the channels that will only be available to those who participate in the beta test.

Don’t worry about not being sure about the Bot Basher yet, all the data from the test will be wiped clean once the test is concluded, so everybody is welcome to participate in this beta test!

If you are wondering about how to participate in the test, there is a step-by-step guide here at the following link: https://gitbook.humanode.io/guide-to-get-a-verified-role-for-individual-use/

For more information on the Humanode Bot Basher, please check out the following articles: https://blog.humanode.io/humanode-bot-basher-the-human-way-to-get-rid-of-bots/

Have fun, and make sure to let us know if you find any bugs that also need bashing in the process!

Dear human nodes!

For those who have participated in Option 1 on Tokensoft, Feb 15th of 2023 was the date when Option 2’s cliff ended. As the listing hasn’t occurred yet it seemed unfair to Option 1.


As we have previously mentioned, for those who have participated in Option 1, we will shortly be issuing additional token bonuses. The amount to be rewarded is equal to 76,6% of the price difference between Option 1 and Option 2. Every Option 1 holder will receive it to the same wallet used for claiming the original HMND tokens, we will be posting the guides soon. Option 2 and Option 3 will also be receiving a small additional bonus as some part of their tokens should have been unlocked at the TGE as well. As the listing will occur earlier than the vesting period of the Option 2 ends, there should be a just price difference between the two.

Another good news is, although we will not be announcing the details yet, the listing date is set. It was not set before, and now it is. Agreements are signed, the market is stable, no blockers left and everything is greenlighted. The listing is imminent and right now we are in a full-throttle preparation mode. Please note that we are legally bound not to disclose the particular date or the platform we are listing on. We will be announcing both the date and the platform 1-2 days prior to the listing event itself. If we could disclose that earlier - we would. The only thing we can state is that it’s one of the Top 5 centralized exchanges in Web 3. There are other platforms that will also list HMND later.

Once again, we apologize for the delays concerning the listing, but please understand that the delay was to make sure that the listing will be beneficial to all and goes smoothly.

In the meanwhile, please Join the Humanode Bot Basher beta test, become a verified human, and participate in several polls! The more adoption we get before the listing - the better.

Thank you all for your patience, trust, and participation in this great endeavor, and please look forward to some of the exciting pieces of news that we will be sharing with you soon!

Best regards,

Humanode Core
