Biweekly update on @humanode vol.5

20th August — 3rd September

>10 nodes on the internal testnet, An interview with Humanode co-founder Dato Kavazi, The team at EthBuilders NYC special event, The place of Humanode in crypto discussed, Biometric-based marketplaces & credit scoring overview, and more!

TL;DR
Hello, all crypto enthusiasts from all over the globe! We’re ready to share the latest news from the sci-fi and high-tech Humanode’s world!
During these two weeks, Humanode teams were working assiduously, making significant progress with current development. As part of the latest update, teams shared what they’ve been working on. As for the network development, major refactoring of the bio-authentication pallet and consensus around the validator key type has been made, the team dropped parity-db patch, removed the custom serde implementation, added JS types, decoupled bio-authentication consensus from Aura and bio-authentication pallet, and made bio-authentication key UX improvements. The great news is, they carried out internal testing with 14 nodes! More exciting news to follow!
Considering crypto-biometric search and matching and liveness algorithms, the team added test code for feathernet based liveness detection, loss and evaluation code for feathernet based liveness detection, as well as model architecture and train code for feathernet based liveness detection. On top of that, they researched another possibility for linking ZKP layers, started exploring Rust binding for Python using PyO3, and defined the protocols for collective authority.
On September 2nd, 2021, the Humanode team attended EthBuilders NYC special virtual event fully devoted to Humanode. They were speaking about Fath monetary algorithm, the Humanode DAO named Vortex, gave a presentation on crypto-biometrics, described Humanode tech stack, and discussed some of the Humanode use cases. Recordings soon!
If you’ve ever wondered who is developing the Humanode project, this secret has been partially revealed! The team continues a series of interviews with the Humanode Core team. The third interview features Humanode co-founder Dato Kavazi. Dato discusses the project’s journey, the challenges that he faced in starting it, and Humanode’s greatest challenges now, he shares his vision for Humanode and describes ideas behind the Humanode concept. A must-read!
Last week, the tenth Fireside talk took place in Humanode telegram voice chat. The discussion was fully devoted to the place of Humanode in crypto. Listen to the recording on the Humanode Podcast, and join the team on Wednesday for the next conversation!
Humanode’s latest blog post discusses biometric-based marketplaces. With user accounts tied to the crypto-biometrics based identification, businesses will be able to provide Sybil defenses, only allowing “proven human beings” from providing reviews, being able to build or utilize credit scores for customers and merchants alike, and be able to prevent a wide variety of frauds or at least be able to hold people accountable, in the form of blacklisting the ID, preventing them from doing more harm. Humanode Network API will enable human-verified single sign-on (SSO) for Humanode powered dapps and protocols. Decentralized credit scoring is another great use case here. The crucial point is that biometrics is unique, especially when combined with crypto-biometrics, which provide the highest level of security and privacy as well as identity verification for credit scores. It is a win-win situation for both the buyer and the seller, the creditor, and the debtor, while also resolving a major issue for platforms in terms of establishing trust and responsibility.
That’s a wrap! Check out the report below and keep yourself updated!

🔥 HUMANODE FIRESIDE: THE HUMANODE DAO - VORTEX

Dear Friends and Human nodes,

We look forward to seeing you today in our telegram voice chat! We’ll be discussing the Humanode DAO named Vortex.

As usual, there will be a live talk between the team members first, and then a conversation with the community.

When?
Wednesday, September 8th, 2021, 16:00 UTC

Dear friends and Human nodes!

Today we want to give you an opportunity to apply for the first ever Humanode testnet that is going live in the upcoming month. The participants will be able to go through special biometric enrollment process and become human nodes, validate blocks, send transactions and take part in the 100 000 $ anti-spoofing bounty program by our dearest partner FaceTec. (Spoiler: it ain't easy). Applications will be reviewed by the Humanode core and you will be invited in batches.

The invitation will be sent out to the emails that you state in the application.

Do you know how the DAO works in Humanode? Check out the recording of the Fireside talk "The Humanode DAO - Vortex" which took place in Humanode telegram voice chat on September 8th, 2021.

With Humanode, an account owner would have to prove the private biometrics ownership via liveness detection.

Even if an account is hacked, attackers won't be able to use your Decentralized Identifier (DID).
