Humanode Announcements pinned «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…»
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.
- FindAuthor implementations moved to a separate mod
- 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

Biweekly update on @Humanode vol.25
1st June — 15th June

EVM compatible Testnet v3 — “Ramiel” launched, Humanode Conference 2022 was a blast, The first-ever Humanode Hackathon ‘Hack The Sybil’ is live, and more!

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!

Testnet 3 "Ramiel" Batch 1 is out.
Hey, human nodes!
Interview with Paradigm and
Humanode co-founder, Dato Kavazi.


Listen to an overview of Humanode, and how it solves the problem of Sybil attacks, and dig into how #biometrics & #livenessdetection work in its system.

Hello, Humanode Community!

Read this latest interview with Paradigm and Humanode's Co-Founder, Victor Paradigm on HackerNoon.

Know more about his entrepreneurial journey and see how his belief in True Decentralization lead to the creation of Humanode. 👇

*Bonus** - He also discussed the types of projects, he is willing to fund. 😉
Our Testnet 3 'Ramiel' chain is stuck!

We were at the end of the session, and the next block was going to start a new session; that block did something that was too heavy, and the node just couldn't build it in time.

We're investigating what exactly is causing it.

Great job, human nodes, the next batch will be invited after the hot fix.
Hotfix is out!

When our chain hit 16 validators, it got stuck and could not start the next session. Why? 3 weeks ago Substrate updated the API for managing state. It had a bug that started an infinite loop. Hotfix coming to all Substrate chains soon. https://github.com/paritytech/substrate/pull/11490/files/a5f349ba9620979c3c95b65547ffd106d9660d9d#r900488712

People who participated before the chain reset need to update the chain in the desktop app settings by doing "Check for peer Updates" and recreate the workspace.
Testnet 3 "Ramiel" Batch 2 is out!
Humanode Testnet 3 "Ramiel" Batch 3 is out!
50 validators mark crossed. The 4th batch of invitations to Testnet 3 "Ramiel" is out!
Hi Human nodes,
Here’s some food for the mind for y’all 👇
