SOV rewards for liquidity mining are claimable at any point by clicking the "withdraw" button https://live.sovryn.app/yield-farm for the pool you have liquidity in, then click on https://live.sovryn.app/reward to claim them, after which they are visible in the vested assets tab of https://live.sovryn.app/wallet as "reward sov", AND in https://bitocracy.sovryn.app/stake listed as "current vests" 10% of the reward SOV can be then withdrawn per month for 10 months as liquid SOV, which you can also stake in bitocracy instead, if you choose. All of the vested reward SOV will count towards voting in bitocracy while it is vested, but only 10% becomes liquid each month for you to withdraw or stake. If you want to CONTINUE earning SOV rewards in the pools after you have withdrawn your liquidity to get your SOV rewards, you will need to REDEPOSIT the liquidity to the pool. SOV rewards for providing LM are recalibrated every monday. If you leave your liquidity in the pool and do not withdraw it to claim the SOV rewards, the rewards keep accumulating until you withdraw them. Keep in mind though that the vesting period BEGINS at the point you withdraw the reward SOV. https://wiki.sovryn.app/en/sovryn-dapp/sovryn-rewards-explained

CryptoBlades Integrates Chainlink VRF on Binance Smart Chain to Power Verifiably Random GameplayCryptoBlades, a blockchain- and NFT-based RPG on Binance Smart Chain (BSC), is pleased to announce a new integration with Chainlink, the industry-leading decentralized oracle network. CryptoBlades is beginning by using Chainlink VRF as the source of randomness used to determine the outcome of all entropy-based gameplay scenarios like the content of NFT-based loot drops, the weapon rarity from chance-based upgrades, and user matchmaking results. Additionally, Cryptoblades will look to support other Chainlink oracle services in the future to accelerate our development, such as Chainlink Price Feeds to enable the listing of NFT assets in our marketplace in stable currencies. Chainlink VRF works by combining block data that is still unknown when the request is made with the oracle node’s pre-committed private key to generate both a random number and a cryptographic proof. The CryptoBlades game will only accept the random number input if it has a valid cryptographic proof, and the cryptographic proof can only be generated if the VRF process is tamper-proof. This provides users with automated and publicly verifiable assurances directly on-chain that each situation using Chainlink VRF for randomness is provably fair and cannot be tampered with or predicted by the oracle, outside entities, blockchain miners, or the CryptoBlades team.

New @cosmoshub proposal to increase the inflation rate change variable as for the network to better protect itself against unbondings & react faster when $ATOM bonding ratio drops below the 66% goal is in voting period! The purpose of changing the network’s inflation rate is to protect it from unbonding shocks that threaten to compromise the security of the network. When the bonded ratio gets below the goal bonded ratio (currently at 66% on the hub) the inflation rate & effective yield of staked atoms goes up in order to incentivize holders to bond new ATOM’s, providing additional security to the network. Inversely, if we regain a desired amount of staked tokens, the yield will drop, decreasing effective yields for all delegators. Ideally the inflation rate starts changing fast, optimizing network security over monetary hardness. To figure out what an appropriate selection for the cosmos hub would be, I created excel sheets to run through all the different scenarios to find what value made the inflation rate react in an optimal manner. I came to the conclusion that 1 (AKA 100% per year is the maximum slope of the inflation curve) gave the most ideal characteristics, with the added benefit of simplifying the equation. I’ll give some examples on how it would react. Since unbonding is what we are protecting against, I will look at flash unbonds while the inflation rate is at the floor due to that being the #1 time of vulnerability.Vote here: https://cosmos.bigdipper.live/proposals/48

IOTA 2.0 Research SpecificationsThis post aims to briefly introduce the research specifications which we made available with the release of the IOTA 2.0 DevNet (Nectar). The specifications can be found here. Their purpose is to carefully explain the current state of the IOTA 2.0 protocol to developers, both internal and external, who wish to build on or test Nectar, to academics who want to analyze, model and optimize the protocol and need rigorous description of each module, and to community members and anybody who just want to learn more about the protocol. We hope this post is a useful guide to the IOTA 2.0 research specifications, and we hope that you dive into them to learn as much as you can about how the IOTA 2.0 DevNet works! However, before reading the specifications, we would like to explain a few points to the reader.

Blockchain Fintech Tutorial: Lending and Borrowing With PythoIntroductionThe classic fintech world is full of tools that enable a user to make sophisticated algorithmic trading models and systems. The decentralized finance (DeFi) world offers users and developers those very same tools, with significantly more transparency and flexibility around the underlying financial protocols and instruments, giving rise to DeFi quantitative and research engineers. DeFi developers and DeFi quants can even leverage derivatives of those tools and compose them into new services to build innovative financial positions that have no equivalent in the traditional fintech world. One of the fundamental tools for DeFi developers is the ability to lend and borrow cryptocurrency assets in a non-custodial way. Some of the massive advantages of working with DeFi lending and borrowing protocols are: ⚡️Frictionless short selling ⚡️Obtaining liquidity without closing out your positions ⚡️Gain yield on your deposited collateral ⚡️Things impossible in the traditional fintech world, like flash loans.

What we didn't mention is all of the really exciting work getting completed a layer deeper. Here's the recent Holochain upgrades: 3. Upgrade to Wasmer 1.0: This brings greater stability, more features, faster app load times, and different memory handling (where we found a memory leak and a bad compiler bug which they have patched for us upstream. (..) 4. (..)Thanks Wasmer team!) Next steps: cpu metering for holo hosting, and meter budgets to prevent running infinite loops in apps.
