Hard fork successful

Ubiq successfully hard forked last week and as a recap, we activated 3 Ethereum hard forks (Byzantium, Constantinople & St. Petersburg) in one shot as well as amended a fix for uncle reward calculations. All these changes were consensus level (hence the reason for a hard fork) upgrades. No issues arose and the hard fork was smooth so thank you also to the mining pools and community for being prepared and supportive. We had some great chats in Discord Voice channels leading up to the hard fork.

The next major hard fork development will implement the Ethereum Istanbul EIP’s (this was hard forked in Ethereum block 9069000 on December 8, 2019) and is anticipated to be completed mid-2020.

Prior to activating the Instanbul EIP's we will be upgrading the Gubiq codebase to be in line with the latest Geth 1.9 branch. Currently Gubiq 3.0.1 runs on the Geth 1.8 branch.

Dusk

@xocel has started working on Dusk which will be a new node and wallet UI to replace Fusion. This is all brand new code but will tie in well with home Raspberry Pi nodes. Below is a screen shot.



Tornado Cash

The latest Ubiq hard fork has allowed us to start experimenting and implementing some projects on our network. One of them is Tornado Cash which enables a Zero Knowledge privacy solution for Ubiq. When used properly and with multiple user participation, it allows for a mixed anonymity set and unlink-ability similar to Zcash shielded transactions.

I will look to make some modifications to the upstream project in our own repository to tailor it for Ubiq. This will probably start out as CLI usage before having an integrated web interface.

Thank you and look forward to more live contracts and utility coming to Ubiq in 2020!

“@ivan_nakamoto We have no premine, it’s a dev fee that takes 4 years to be delivered. Grimble is either too incompetent to understand the difference, or being deliberately misleading about what it means to pre-mine a coin. Hint: they control 99.99% of their coins supply today.”

That strategically unmentioned dev fee tho

Daemon issues. Need the devs to contact us ASAP. We've tried contacting them in Slack and email.

KleinerMiner welcome to the community and thanks for your support.

Don't listen to the haters. Unfortunately a lot of trolls in crypto who like to spread FUD on the work we do and what we have accomplished.
