Plug in. Stay human. Shape what’s next.

Dear human nodes, LP stakers, verified humans and biomapped individuals,

Biometrics servers reset for Humanode network, Botbasher for Discord & Telegram, and Humanode Biomapper is scheduled to start in about 2 hours from now and can take around 8 hours.

We understand that this reset is time-sensitive, and we will make a quick announcement before the reset is initiated so that everyone is ready to re-enroll and re-authenticate within an epoch to avoid downtime in the validator status.

We will keep sharing the reset updates so you can re-bioauthenticate.

Keep an eye to stay updated.

We have started the preparations for the CVM rotation on mainnet; the actual CVM reset is planned at the start of the next epoch ~3 hours from now.

Keep an eye on chain-ops channel in Humanode Discord for latest updates.

Biometric servers update and reset

Dear human nodes,

The biometric servers for Humanode Mainnet have been updated, and reset for Biometric AI upgrades.

Please re-enroll and re-authenticate to ensure that your node continues to run seamlessly without missing an epoch.

Keep in mind that you do not need to rotate the keys but you must re-enroll.

Another thing to note is that this update of the biometric servers will not affect BotBasher and Biomapper verification, and all previous encrypted biometric data is deleted forever during this process.

Thank you for your cooperation!

Biomapper servers update and reset

Dear LP stakers and biomapped individuals,

The generation for Humanode Biomapper have been updated following Biometric AI upgrades.

Please Biomap again to make sure you stay Biomapped. Especially for LP Stakers, keep in mind, that this update doesn't affect your stakes in any way, however, you must Biomap to be able to claim your rewards.

Another thing to note is that this update of the biometric servers will not affect BotBasher verification, and all previous encrypted biometric data is deleted forever during this process.

Thank you for your cooperation!

BotBasher for Telegram Servers Update & Reset


We've reset BotBasher Telegram version’s CVMs for Biometric AI upgrades.

Users will need to verify and relink their tg accounts to enter the Sybil-resistance channels.

Another thing to note is that this update of the biometric servers will not affect BotBasher for Discord verification. We’ll announce it for the Discord once it’s updated.

Thank you for your cooperation!

A quick reminder: These updates happen because we wipe your already encrypted biometrics every half a year. This is a part of our privacy mechanism to ensure your personal security!

Important Update for Discord Server Admins & Users using BotBasher!

We've reset and updated BotBasher for Discord CVMs for Biometric AI upgrades. BotBasher Gen 6 is now the latest BotBasher generation.

As an admin, your role in this transition is crucial to update to the latest generation (Gen 6) of BotBasher. Please follow this guide for instructions: https://blog.humanode.io/botbasher-update-announcement-for-server-administrators/

Users will need to get the new role in Gen 6. Gen 5 roles are deprecated and can no longer be obtained. For detailed info, follow this link: https://blog.humanode.io/botbasher-update-important-announcement-for-verified-humans-and-all-users/

1 hour after the biometric reset already 1 000 validators biometrically authenticated and were back in the validator set. Different countries and continents. All unique people throughout the world interconnected in a single gesture of coordinated decentralization. It's a miracle.

Humanode’s commitment to decentralization and security demands a diversified ecosystem of trusted liveness detection solutions. Currently, Humanode relies exclusively on FaceTec for its biometric identity verification needs. This article investigates alternative providers, comparing their technologies, integration capabilities, certifications, and more.

As the Humanode Biomapper c1 stands at the junction of absolute success, it finds its way on JANCTION, a popular L2 chain focusing on AI on JASMY, Japan's largest Web3 project. JANCTION is on their testnet, getting ready for mainnet launch.

With Biomapper on JANCTION testnet, apps and services being developed on JANCTION will be able to provide Sybil-resistance by utilizing the private and secure biometric authentication of Biomapper from the get go!

Starting today, the Humanode Biomapper c1 SDK is available for Janction, so for those interested in adding Biomapper to their built apps or have brand new ideas for possible services you can build, check out the SDK and the developer's guide below!
