Biweekly update on @Humanode vol.34

5th October — 19th October

Mainnet on November 15th, Public sale Wave III сommences, The new Humanode launcher shipped, Regular dev updates are here, Humanode Torch introduced, and more!

TL;DR
Hello to all human nodes! Following our lovely tradition, we are here to provide you with a recap of Humanode’s news and updates for the past two weeks!
First and foremost, the Humanode team announced the date of the mainnet! It is set for November 15th, 2022. With the launch, Humanode is going to be the first network to deploy a crypto-biometric-based Sybil resistance instead of PoS and PoW bringing the proper distribution of validation power to web3. 1 human = 1 node = 1 vote and all nodes are equal. By design, all human nodes will be equal in terms of validation power. In the beginning, the amount of validators is going to be capped at 1000. If you’ve paid close attention to the HMND token distribution you might have noticed that 2% is reserved for mainnet validators. This is a special fund that will bootstrap the functioning of the first 100 human node validators that are going to join. Regardless of the saturation of the network, it will cover the cost of running the nodes for several years to come. There will be no pre-onboarding period. The mainnet will be deployed at a particular time and the human nodes will be able to onboard themselves as they did to any other testnet. Besides the mainnet, the team is also going to launch a canary network, a testnet for the mainnet, and a testnet for the canary network to give tools to build some really creative stuff.
The great news is, the Humanode public sale Wave III is now up and running. It will be open until November 8th, 14:00 UTC, or until all tokens are sold out. All of you who have successfully completed the KYC on Tokensoft are able to participate in the event. So don’t hesitate and join!
During these weeks, Humanode teams worked tirelessly making significant progress with current tasks. The progress was minutely shared in their regular development update. The new Humanode Launcher version shipped, it includes corrected node keys detection logic for the dashboard. Check for updates in the launcher to get this version.
As for the network development, the team backported the telemetry fix to TestNet4, enabled Telemetry at grandpa, and assigned fixed pallet IDs. Considering the Humanode Web App, they added auto-generation typings, updated dependencies, and tagged state integration. Moreover, the Humanode team has been working on the Humanode Web Socket Tunnel. They fixed the connection handling at the client and CI permissions, updated dependencies, added metrics to the server, and improved tunnel route parsing.
Moreover, the team introduced Humanode Torch. For the next few weeks, they will be passing the torch around and inviting you to share your thoughts about Humanode. The team may randomly ask the community a question, such as the recent questions “Why Humanode?” and “What do you like about Humanode?”. The team will select an answer or two per day to be shared with the community. They may randomly pass the torch to somebody in the community too, so if the torch is passed to you, grab the opportunity to speak out and inspire the global Humanode community!
That’s all for today. Join Wave III and stay tuned! More exciting news to come!

Humanode’s Got Talent Grand Finale

Dear Humanodes and Humanodes to be!

A while ago, the Humanode team asked the Community a simple question. “Does the Humanode community have talent?”

Well, the simple answer is… Yes, Humanode got talent.
Having said that, the question that everyone is left with is “So, who had the most talent?”. (And for the 35 brave souls who participated, the question was “Did I win?”)

Well, this is where we faced a challenge. How do we decide who has talent? I mean, each and every one has unique talents. Do we have the whole community vote? Do we create a Sybil resistant voting system for this? Do we take the well known format of 3 judges and dish out $45M USD to have Simon Cowell come take potshots?

Well, after deliberation with the whole team, we decided that if we were to have everyone vote, we would need to create a voting system for this - but are too short on time due to the preparations for main net launch, and Simon Cowell is simply too expensive and knows nothing about Humanode… so we should bring out our own judge panel, and select the winners live.

So, this Friday, from 13:00 UTC, Dato, Fiona, and Shannon from the Humanode team will be hosting a live show where we stream all 35 entries, watch them together, take a vote, and select the winners of Humanode Got Talent 2022!

We invite everyone to join us for the Grand Finale of HGT 2022!
We will be announcing the link to the finale shortly.

See you there! 🍻

Hey hey Human nodes and friends,

Human nodes and friends,

Victor exposes a bitter truth of decentralised governance in crypto and why we need to work harder on decentralising capital to create a truly decentralised future of DAOs and DeFi.

We in Humanode believe that one day crypto will be truly decentralised. Are you with us?

Hola human nodes,

This is an important announcement for all the validators on Testnet 4. We are rolling out the update for biometric verification. This means that all human nodes will have to re-enroll and re-authenticate to continue being validators.

The updates will be out on Wednesday (November 9, 2022)

In order to resolve problems faced during re-enrolling and re-authenticating, check this troubleshoot guide: https://gitbook.humanode.io/troubleshooting

Regards,
Humanode Core

Dear Human nodes,

We are happy to announce the closure of Wave 3 for Humanode. We are honored that we were joined by so many members of the Humanode community!

512 validators and community members participated in the sale, raising ~ 570,000 USD.

This amount is significantly lower than we hoped to raise, however combined with the funds raised in the private institutional round, it will be enough for the core team to march forward through the bear market, launch the mainnet, implement the road map in full, and solidify our vision.

For all of you who have participated in Waves, we thank you for your trust and conviction. For the members of the community who were not able to participate, we thank you for your support, and are looking forward to your continued effort and participation in the community. You are all what keeps us, and Humanode, ticking.

Sincerely,

The Humanode Core Team
