Humanode invites devs to ‘Hack the Sybil’ in June hackathon featuring $30,000 in prizes

The Hack the Sybil Hackathon is intended to help combat the use of Sybil attacks in blockchain environments. In a Sybil attack, malicious actors create multiple accounts to take control of and manipulate blockchain transactions. Humanode is trying to solve that problem with its proof of existence concept, which uses FaceTec biometrics to link each blockchain node to a single human user to thwart multi-account attacks.
The Hackathon is being set up to encourage other developers to come up with new applications of that technology. Humanode is asking competitors to submit decentralized apps (dapps) that are resistant to Sybil manipulation, and stressed that they can use any technology they want to realize those goals. The apps themselves can similarly be built for any purpose, though Humanode is dividing the competition into five primary categories.
Those five categories are the UI/UX track, the chain tool track, the DAO track, the dapps for human nodes track, and the more open-ended special track, which encapsulates apps in industries like arts and gaming. Humanode will hand out a $6,000 reward to the winner of each track, and its partners are expected to supplement that with additional prizes.

Humanode Conference 2022 - A Review

If you were among the lucky people who attended the first-ever Humanode conference, then you know what a ground-breaking event it was. The unique conference aimed to let people meet the minds and builders behind the Humanode project and brought together some of the top blockchain and cryptocurrency experts.
From insightful panel discussions to exciting keynote speeches and workshops, there was plenty to keep attendees engaged and inspired. If you couldn't make it to the Humanode conference this year, don't worry – we've got you covered!
In this blog post, we'll recap all the highlights from the conference. So sit back, relax, and get ready to learn all about the exciting Humanode Conference 2022!

Hello, human nodes!

They say good things come to those who wait, and we have waited for everrr.
It is our sheer pleasure to announce that after a long (long) process, our testnest Ramiel is ready for public and it is BEAUTIFUL.

Ramiel will be the next major step towards the launch of the Humanode Mainnet this summer, and we will be focusing on brushing up the system, moving from permissioned Proof of Authority where nodes are supposed to trust each other, to a trustless permissionless system, and bringing EVM-compatibility to the Humanode testnet.

We will be inviting people in batches to join Humanode Testnet Ramiel as human nodes. It will support Linux, MacOS, and Windows, in combination with iOS and Android. And as we want to keep Humanode for everybody, the hardware requirements to join the testnet will not be high.

If you think you suit the role as a human node, apply now!

Hello Human Nodes,

Our dev team has worked tirelessly for the past few weeks to make Testnet3 Ramiel live keeping in mind the Humanode’s goals and your valuable feedback and suggestions. ✌️

We are excited that these developments will enhance the network and user experience for everyone who is part of Humanode one way or the other. 🚀

Here are some major updates 👇

Testnet3 Ramiel Major Updates

- Improved Authentication Experience - You can easily authenticate now since we removed the old authentication flow. No switching nodes into enrolling vs authenticate mode.

- Increased BioAuthentication Time - This major update is for those always pointing out their concern regarding authentication expiry. Your bio authentication will now expire after 7 days instead of 72 hours. ;)

- EVM and Ethereum compatibility - You can now deploy EVM smart contracts and use Ethereum smart contracts and wallets (such as Metamask); This means People can start developing dApps utilizing Humanode Sybil Resistance.

- GRANDPA Block Finality Algorithm- This will ensure that your transaction will not be evicted by a conflicting chain if it’s in the finalized block.

- BABE as Block Production Mechanism - It will eliminate the potential unfairness when we alter the authority set and even out the chances for each validator to produce a block.

- Choice Between Selecting Testnet2 and Testnet3 - You have an option to choose between Testnet2 and Testnet3 on the Humanode desktop app while creating the workspace.

Other Significant Dev Updates

1. Humanode Network

- Minor corrections to runtime configs around BABE
- Substrate bumped to 438f40d
- Offline Validators will now be unauthenticated.

- EVM implementation to native account linking
- Robonode public key is now swappable.
- Cargo metadata checks at Clippy are turned off.
- Precompile-bioauth will be in runtime
- Backport CLI API versioned to testnet2

2. Humanode Web App

- Fixed Snackbar displaying [object Event]
- Fixed display error message after failed request rotate and set keys
- Defaulted to WebSocket URL
- Fixed the case of the liveness data fields at the API

3. Bio-auth

- Integrated ML package into crypto
- Integrated poetry into the project
- Implemented extracting quantized/decoherence output from each -layer in the neural network
- Implemented ONNX quantization for facial recognition and liveness detection models

4. OAuth

TL;DR
Hello, crypto fans and tech enthusiasts! The last two weeks have been extremely intense and exciting for the Humanode teams, and we can’t wait to share some of the most significant news with you!
First and foremost, Humanode Testnet v3 — “Ramiel” is now live and open for public testing. Ramiel is the next major step towards the launch of the Humanode Mainnet this summer. The team is focusing on brushing up the system, moving from permissioned Proof of Authority where nodes are supposed to trust each other, to a trustless permissionless system, and bringing EVM compatibility to the Humanode testnet. Be the first of human nodes to test it out. Apply now!
During these weeks, Humanode teams were working tirelessly making significant progress with current tasks. The progress was minutely shared in their regular development update.
As for the network development, they have done minor corrections to runtime configs around BABE, Substrate bumped to 438f40d, offline Validators will now be unauthenticated, FindAuthor implementations moved to a separate mod, Robonode public key is now swappable, Cargo metadata checks at Clippy are turned off, Precompile-bioauth will be in runtime, backport CLI API versioned to testnet 2.
As for the Web App, the team fixed Snackbar displaying, display error message after failed request rotate and set keys, and the case of the liveness data fields at the API.
Considering crypto-biometric search and matching and liveness algorithms, the team integrated ML package into crypto and poetry into the project, as well as implemented extracting quantized/decoherence output from each layer in the neural network and ONNX quantization for facial recognition and liveness detection models.
As for OAuth, the team displayed a biometric engine instead of FaceTec SDK, added a humanode fav icon, extended login and consent info response, and added a restart flow error.
Moreover, the Humanode Conference took place in Gather.town from May 31st — to June 1st, 2022. It was full of keynotes, lectures, seminars, games, conversations, and a whole lot of fun, focusing on the upcoming launch of Humanode mainnet, the project’s vision, partnerships, technology, and growing as a community! If you couldn’t make it to the Humanode conference this year, don’t worry — the team has got you covered! In the freshly-published blog post, they recap all the highlights from the conference. Check it out!
The great news is that the signup for the Humanode Hackathon is live! “Hack The Sybil!” includes a series of educational workshops that teach participants to build decentralized applications on the Humanode network. The hackathon is intended to help combat the use of Sybil attacks in blockchain environments. In a Sybil attack, malicious actors create multiple accounts to take control of and manipulate blockchain transactions. Humanode is trying to solve that problem with its proof of existence concept, which uses FaceTec biometrics to link each blockchain node to a single human user to thwart multi-account attacks. After the hackathon, applicants will be able to apply for a grant through the Humanode Grant Program which will launch in Q3 2022 after the mainnet launch. Don’t forget to join Humanode Discord to team up with other participants and keep up to date with events during the hackathon!
That’s all for today! Check out the article below and keep yourself updated!
