The gaming world’s got a serious Sybil problem—bots and scammers messing up in-game economies and making it unfair for real, dedicated players. It’s a mess, and it annoys every gamer.

Catacomb Crawlers realizes this problem and says nope, not here. That's why it’s going to be the first game to integrate Humanode's cryptobiometric tech to keep Sybils away. One person, one account. That’s it!

And the best part? You only have to prove you're a unique human when it matters—when you enter the marketplace or trade NFTs. No constant verification, no game interruptions. Just play, have fun, and when you want to trade, you perform a quick private biometric check. Simple as that.

The Humanode community and mobile gaming industry have been abuzz with the news of Catacomb Crawlers joining the Humanode ecosystem, bringing the world’s first Sybil-resistant mobile game!

Sure, there’s a lot of focus on how this could change the status quo and if it will become the game that shifts the Web3 space - but before we start speculating, let’s talk about the most important question - who are the people behind Catacomb Crawlers?

So, we simply decided to sit down with Florin Mitu (Co-founder) and Alex Carbunariu (CMO) to find out.

The weekend has arrived, and so has the first part of The Book of Jack, the 6th chapter of the Humanode-inspired dystopian novel, 2067 -the equilibrium- written by the Humanode Media Team lead Shannon Higgins.

Yes, it is time to meet Higashimura Jack, a survivor of the quake that destroyed Tokyo, a survivor of a plot trying to “take him out”, a rare pioneer who had not only lived in the city of Tokyo before the quake, Tokyo as it was being rebuilt, District 5, 3, 9, a darkzone, and then District 6. He is a journalist, a storyteller, a businessman, a consultant, a builder, a farmer, a visionary, alone, and in general, a “jack of all trades” who never feels like he belongs. This is his story of where he came from, and where he hopes to go.

Yes, the weekend has come upon us, and so has the second installment of The Book of Jack, the 6th chapter of the Humanode-inspired dystopian novel, 2067 -the equilibrium- written by the Humanode Media Team lead Shannon Higgins.

Jack looks back at his time spent in D9, how he ended up there, and how he managed to leave. Those snippets of “experiences” have been deeply engraved in his memories, and have been the source of nightmares for years to come. At the same time, they have very much shaped his future.

Ever wondered what it’s like to run a decentralized autonomous organization (DAO) in a one person - one vote environment? How about simulating it?

And for this purpose, we propose the DAO Simulator Game, where you step into the role of a governoooor, navigating the highs, lows, and surprises that come with decentralized management of a blockchain-based project.

We will be playing the DAO Simulator on Humanodecon 2024: every visitor will take part in managing a democratic DAO!

Happy Friday! To celebrate the weekend, here is the final installment of The Book of Jack, the 6th chapter of 6th chapter of the Humanode-inspired dystopian novel, 2067 -the equilibrium- written by the Humanode Media Team lead Shannon Higgins!

In the final installment of The Book of Jack, Jack and Mami find themselves talking about Jack’s experience in D7, and his first impression of the Vortex, which by this time has been running for 40+ years, as the foundation of Liquid Democracy. But like many things, after 40+ years, tweaking may be needed…

As the cyber attack on D6 commences in the background, Jack and Mami are rushed back to D7. Jack comes up with some ideas that might help him, the project he works with, and the community, but little does he know, others have plans too.

Grab your coffee and head to your comfortable couch to dive into the fourth and final installment of The Book of Jack here: https://www.wattpad.com/1496124309-2067-the-equilibrium-the-book-of-jack-part-4-4

Two years ago today 200 pioneers have begun to validate the Humanode network with nothing more than their biometrics, marking history with running a novel consensus mechanism not reliant on either capital or mining equipment.

Through ups and downs we went, disbelief was crushed, pessimism shifted to optimism and then back to pessimism many, many times.

But here we are. 10 M blocks, hundreds of thousands transactions and 2 M bioverifications later without a single Sybil node deployed on the chain. With 1600 real unique human running, owning and sharing the network fees equally. BotBasher, Biomapper on EVM, Sybil-resistant LP staking and CVM 2.0.

What will there be in another two years?

10 000+ Human nodes, a working democratic, egalitarian Vortex DAO, a Fath mechanism for equal emission distribution, SR gate for stable web 2/3 Sybil-resistant accounts and so much more!

So long live human nodes! Long live egalitarian decentralization! The future is bright and you’re part of it!

We’re coming together for the first in real-life Humanode Conference in just a few weeks.

One of the key sessions? Humanode co-founder Victor's talk:
A global financial shift: How the current financial system emerged and how a Humanode-powered future could look like.
