Aurora is designed for speed and low fees. Now, adding Sybil resistance to your wallet on Aurora just got even easier with Biomapper C2.

The first 3,000 biomaps + bridges on Aurora are free.
(Humanode refunds biomap, network, and bridge fees in HMND/eHMND.)

Here’s how it works:
Biomap → Bridge to Aurora → Your wallet is marked as unique & human-verified.

With Biomapper, one wallet = one real person. That means you can step into Aurora dApps with Sybil resistance built in airdrops, governance, whitelists, mints, and more.

For projects on Aurora, this campaign lowers the barrier for users to get verified, giving builders a growing pool of Sybil-resistant wallets to tap into.

Good governance doesn’t come from the loudest voices or the deepest pockets. It comes from those who actually know what they’re doing.

In Humanode Vortex, that’s the idea behind Cognitocracy and its Specialization Chambers, where proposals are shaped and decided by people with proven expertise in their fields.

It’s been 3 years since the launch of HMND, and we want to clear up how token unlocks actually work. Let’s start with the basics.

Here’s a quick overview of the main allocations:
• Angel and Seed – 2 years of block-by-block vesting, starting Nov 2023 and ending Nov 2025
• Strategic – 30 months of block-by-block vesting, starting Jun 2023 and ending Nov 2025
• Core team – 3 years of block-by-block vesting, starting Dec 2023 and ending Nov 2026
• Broader team – 3 years of block-by-block vesting, starting Dec 2024 and ending Nov 2027
• Market Maker – one-time at TGE (Nov 2022)
• Treasury Reserve – 4 annual unlocks, Nov 2024 through Nov 2027
• Ecosystem Fund – one-time in Dec 2025
• Testnet participants – one-time at TGE
• Mainnet validators – gradual stream from Jan 2023 through Nov 2026

In Humanode, most unlocks are linear. That means tokens don’t come out all at once.

They are released little by little, block by block, second by second, like drops of water from a tap instead of a bucket being dumped at once.

Here’s how it works:
Investor and team allocations (Angel, Seed, Strategic, Core, Broader) are not cliff unlocks. They stream out continuously, block by block, second by second, during their vesting windows.

There are no sudden cliffs where a million tokens appear in one day. Instead, the vesting contract releases small amounts at every block until the full allocation is reached.
Example: Angel round
• Allocation: about 5% of the total supply.
• Lockup: 1 year.
• Vesting: 24 months, beginning Nov 2023.

This means that from Nov 2023 until Nov 2025, tokens are unlocked gradually. If you see charts that show “~830,000 HMND” released monthly, that doesn’t mean they come in one lump on the first of the month.

It means that, averaged out, the vesting contract is releasing roughly that amount spread evenly second by second across the month.

The same applies to Seed, Strategic, Core, and Broader team allocations. Each has its own start date and duration, but the principle is the same: tokens flow steadily, not suddenly.

The visible jumps you see on charts come from a few non-vesting items that are modeled as steps:
– Market Maker (one-time at TGE),
– Ecosystem Fund (one-time in Dec-2025),
– Treasury Reserve (annual additions each Nov 2024–2027).

This brings us to the concern about an ~11% unlock in November 2025. The tranche people are pointing at is the November Ecosystem and Treasury Reserve addition (≈45M HMND, ~11% of supply).

These funds are managed by the Humanode Foundation and reserved for ecosystem growth.

It means that the funds will become available for ecosystem development. They do not immediately flow into the market, and there’s no plan to do so, especially at these prices. In fact, tokens from earlier treasury unlocks haven’t even been fully used yet.

Another point to clarify is that, if you can see in the graph, you can identify that a 90+% portion of the angel, seed, and strategic round tokens has already been unlocked, and the rest will finish by November 2025.

That means there isn’t some big investor dump waiting around the corner. People have either already sold or they are holding until they reach the moon, whereas now HMND is below the first funding round valuation.

So, remember that when you see websites showing “monthly unlocks,” it’s just because they don’t have the tools to display block-by-block vesting. They simplify it into monthly buckets.

The truth is that tokens unlock every second, except for treasury and ecosystem funds, not all at once at the end of the month.

We hope that this clarifies some of the confusion.

Worried about getting flagged Sybil and missing a Monad airdrop?

Biomap → Bridge to Monad.

Biomap your address and bridge to Monad so you’ve got onchain proof you’re a unique, living human if you need to appeal.

App: https://biomapper.hmnd.app

How to biomap: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=A9K9zB-8yok

Biomapper C2 is now deployed on Monad. It's an onchain tool that ties an EVM address to a unique, living human with a quick, private face scan. No KYC, no forms, no disclosing of personal data.

If you wrongfully get flagged as Sybil, having a human proof linked to your address can help support an appeal.

(Doesn’t guarantee eligibility, just an onchain evidence you’re not a Sybil.)

For builders in the Monad ecosystem:
With Biomapper deployed on Monad, you can add uniqueness check to filter bots, Sybils and keep claims, rewards, allowlists, and votes fair.

Been a while since our last Founders Talk. Since then, a lot has been built, and a few exciting updates are brewing ; )

So, this Friday, October 10th at 14:00 UTC, Dato and Victor will be speaking with you.

Just a casual conversation about where we are, what changed since the last talk, and what’s coming into view.

We’ll also talk about exciting upcoming developments.

Bring your questions, and we’ll try to get to as many as we can.


Here’s the plan:
🗓️ Friday, August 22nd, 14:00 UTC

📍 Humanode Socials

Hey human nodes, biomapped individuals, and verified humans,

We’ve got an important heads-up for you. There’s a scheduled reset coming up for the biometric servers for the Humanode chain, Biomapper, and BotBasher.

- When: Thursday, October 8th, to Friday, October 9th, 2025
- We’ll be performing a scheduled reset to rotate CVMs and biometric servers for security improvements.

What it means:

For Node Runners
- You’ll need to go through bioauthentication enrollment again after the reset.
- This ensures your node keeps running without interruptions.
- No need to rotate or change keys; just re-enroll and re-authenticate.

For LP Stakers & Biomapper Users
If you’re LP staking or have bridged your biomap cross-chain, you’ll need to biomap again.

This step will re-link your EVM address so you can continue receiving your rewards in LP staking and prove your uniqueness on cross-chain biomapper.

For Discord & Telegram BotBasher Users
If you’re verified as a unique human, you’ll need to reverify and regain your role.
Server admins using BotBasher for Sybil resistance will need to recreate the assigned role.

Keep an eye on these Discord channels in the Humanode Official Server for real-time updates:
#chain-ops
#botbasher-for-discord-ops
#botbasher-for-telegram-ops
#biomapper-ops

We’ll let you know when each server's reset is complete.

This is a regular reset that happens roughly every six months. During this period, we rotate CVMs to clear out old biometric data and refresh our servers.

As long as you re-enroll and re-authenticate within 1–2 hours after the reset (and don’t change your Substrate address), your validator status and node longevity will remain safe and intact.

This reset is also a good chance if you want to :
- Change your validator address
- Verify a new Discord or Telegram account
- Link a new EVM address to your biomap

Thanks for staying patient and cooperative.

Biometric servers update and reset for Humanode network

Dear human nodes, 

The biometric servers for Humanode Mainnet have been updated and reset for 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 or Biomapper verification, and all previous encrypted biometric data is deleted forever during this process.

Thank you for your cooperation!

Many of you have been asking why Humanode is sharing news about Catacomb Crawlers. Is this a partnership? Why the focus?

The reason is simple.

Catacomb Crawlers is the first project to deploy on the Humanode chain. Their marketplace will run on Humanode’s Sybil-resistant infra using Biomapper.

And they’re also one of the first teams backed by Humanode’s $10M Ecosystem Funding Program.

We’re excited to see their launch coming up. Let’s welcome Catacomb Crawlers into the Humanode ecosystem and congratulate them on this milestone.
