Bux is in Texas right now at the Consensus conference waiting to wow the audience. Go @bux!
Currently we're beavering away to get another testnet out of the door, building on the successes of ThisIsNotBetaRewardsNet and knocking off a few rough edges.
We’re particularly keen to get discord bot fully integrated this time round to automate the calculation of nanos for those running nodes.
Cardano’s Vasil hard fork is a highly-anticipated upgrade coming tomorrow that is expected to increase the functionality, speed, and scalability of the blockchain.
Not linking directly because I don't want to shit on projects I believe are genuinely trying to make the web better, but every time I see a post about "the small web" or a more "humane" web or whatever that includes phrases like this about content: "created without the motivation of financial gain" I sigh so deeply lol
I am begging ethical web enthusiasts to understand what an extreme privilege it is to spend time working on something without worrying about money
We have two new team members First, we are massively pleased that @Shu has agreed to join us to help out with monitoring, observability and visualisation of operations.
Second, we’re delighted to welcome Nic, who joins as product manager. This is an essential role as we move out of the R&D phase into delivery.
We have a new stable test network for you as PunchNet winds down. Impressive work as always from the community, and it’s wonderful to see all the dashboards brightening up the thread.
Our newest paper, “Logical Clocks and Monotonicity for Byzantine-Tolerant Replicated Data Types”, is now available under CC-BY: https://dl.acm.org/doi/10.1145/3578358.3591333 We formalize @matrix and other autonomous #decentralized systems based on hash chronicles to verify monotonicity and Byzantine fault tolerance. #CRDT

With this testnet we’re going to punch some holes!
Computers in a home network will normally be unreachable from the outside, unless ports are forwarded manually. Lately, we’ve been experimenting with relays and hole punching, meaning nodes from inside a home network can participate in the network.
Some good news to kick off with: we have succeeded in getting nodes and clients working from behind NAT firewalls with Quic so we’re definitely getting there in terms of nodes from home
So come and give it a whirl from home with our latest alpha network: PunchNet.
Welcome to our first attempt to have a couple of testnets running in parallel!
Here we have an alpha network, where we want to verify changes before we do a full release that would be compatible with the existing network.
This is not expected to be a wildly long testnet. But participation here will help iron out any potential issues as/when we release new code compatible with BasicEconomyTweaks.
Thanks as usual to the noble testers our first Technical Beta Network is still going good guns, and is proving as stable as we’ve come to expect.
We have a new separate testnet to test potential changes over here. This will run alongside the stable beta network and allow us to test out ideas without having to bring the beta down.
"The perfect solution in the #EU would probably be a #NLnet-style organisation with the remit to route funds in the range of low-millions a year to larger projects like @matrix which have become widespread critical #infrastructure."
With Bbbadnet highlighting some of our bad node detection as… overzealous, and also tipping up an issue with the faucet (and restarting the faucet), we’ve made tweaks to improve pricing economics too.
Come and join us😎
BbbbadNet has now gone off to the great beyond. It was one of the better ones, and taught us some useful things. First, that we’re on the right track with respect to bad node detection being key.
We also worked on improving node performance, by loosening the bad node detection criteria and making changes to how payments are issued to nodes.
Plus, we have amended the pricing curve and the way that nodes are paid.
There's a new testnet up now we’ve squashed some BadNode detection issues. This testnet adds in some basic detection of anomalous node behaviours, and aims to keep the network’s routing tables nice and tidy and neat.
Beyond that, the team has been continuing to push forward across many fronts!
