Idena hard fork announcement

Dear Idena community,

We plan to release a new version of the Idena node on November 12, 2021. It will be a seamless hard fork update.

Hard fork changes:
-  Invitation reward bug fix;
-  Distribution of reporting rewards for newbies bug fix;
-  Shard id for Candidates calculation bug fix.

Other changes:
-  Shard id for non validated address calculation;
-  Changing priority for deferred transactions;
-  Providing disconnection reason for peers;
-  Adding peers for shared nodes (shared profile);
-  Updating bootstrap nodes list.

I'm glad that sharding seems to be working considering the previous successful validation. Hope that it will help us to reach at least 100,000 identities in nearest future.

This is really a progressive project we can reach that number if the developers continue to update the community this is the only human validated project in Cryptocurrency I do not know of any project like this and it was complemented by top developers in the Cryptocurrency community.

Idena Chronicles

Epoch #0077: first sharded validation



Active miners — total number of actively mining identities running their own mining nodes or delegated into mining pools.

Mining nodes — total number of full mining nodes run by individual identities or pool owners who activated online status.

Newcomers — number of addresses that validated for the first time

Success ratio — share of users attended the validation and successfully validated

Active wallets — unique wallets that made transactions during the last epoch


Competitors

Idena is available on pancakeswap so is there a BSC version available? I'm happy to see progress regarding exchanges because last I checked there were only 2 exchanges
Now there are 5 exchanges support this is a sign that Idena wants to grow slowly ATH target must be achieved immediately based on data ATH is $0.3

Yo mates!
Anyone have an invite code, I want to rejoin the network since I saw is on Saturdays only.  Nice thing btw.
Thanks!

EDIT:
Got one, thanks!

I must be dreaming.
Did @tristanharris and Daniel Schmachtenberger really just talk about decentralized identity and the Proof-of-Personhood field on @joerogan's podcast?
And mentioned @RadxChange and @IdenaNetwork too?
Looks like we at @humanetics_ are going to have a busy 2022.

I understand that if I do not implement the invites that I have before the hard fork, I will lose my reward or my invites will not be available for issuance? Why was the dependence of the issuance of invites made on the time of their issuance?

Bug will be fixed with new version. You don't need to wait for a new version to issue an invitation, issue it as soon as you want.

Why do you get more reward if you issue invitation early? Here is an article that explains that
https://medium.com/idena/idena-hard-fork-announcement-early-invitations-9d6d171015c7

I wasted my last invitation because I waited for the last minute to give it to the new account, I made sure it never happen again by giving it to my friend on the first day after the validation, now I'm hoping that he will pass the validation so I can get the 100% rewards, members should give the invitation as soon as you have one, to maximize your rewards.

I passed my first validation months ago but when I try for 2nd validation the network did not push trough, I don't know if this is a bug since my internet is stable and fast enough to do a validation at that time. Since then, I was not able to do next validation because of my offline workloads and the flip thing which is somewhat complicated to do, many newbie I invited to join in Idena is they don't know how to create flips, I hope in the future there will be more simple task to do a validation.

Home routers are mostly too weak for validation (its not about network speed). But there is very simple solution that was being brought here many times. Just go to "idena web app", rent a node for 1 DNA (15 cents) and go through validation using your browser and little to 0 network traffic.

the flip thing which is somewhat complicated to do, many newbie I invited to join in Idena is they don't know how to create flips, I hope in the future there will be more simple task to do a validation.    

Validation and preparation to validation (creating flips) is a Turing Test - "The Turing test, originally called the imitation game by Alan Turing in 1950,[2] is a test of a machine's ability to exhibit intelligent behaviour equivalent to, or indistinguishable from, that of a human." https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Turing_test

So maybe you, and people you invite, are not a real humans? Maybe you are just a bot that does not know about it? Maybe you only think that you are alive while in fact you are an AI that escaped from google servers? Think about it

Opinions about you in your Trust kinda prove my hypothesis - "Part of the Spammer Blacklist: this user has made at least 50 replies that are not up to forum standards. This user is part the top 1000 worst spammers of all time."

Have they updated validation times to accommodate people who work labor intensive jobs that have not been able to join the network yet? I am really intrigued by this project, but as I work with heavy machinery all day, I have not been able to go through the validation process for 6 months now due to the small time window. I believe if this project wants to grow it needs to have something like staggered time windows or something allowing even more people to join and solidify the network.

Validation is now, every third Saturday at 13:30 UTC

The price of an API Key for Human status is 5 IDNA for one epoch, while Newbie can buy an API Key at a price of 1 IDNA for one epoch.
What is the difference between the two other than price?
Will there be a problem if someone rents two API Keys, then gives one of them to be used by a friend and the other API Key is used by himself?

I'm human and I always pay 1 DNA per epoch for shared node api key. I don't know why you see 5 iDNA.

Prices and renting policies (for who, for how long etc) are set by nodes. So if you see different price for 2 nodes (human and newbie) from single provider contact him and ask for details or pick other one that does not charge extra. There are no global rules as far as I know.

The left side is the Human account, and the right side is the Newbie account
I usually buy 3 API Keys directly using my account (pool) for my 3 family members, this is because the delegated account doesn't have enough IDNA balance to rent the API key.
The prize goes directly to my account because it becomes a pool address, so it's better to buy an API key through my account directly.

Usually I tell my family members to edit the node section so they can connect to the Idena network for validation using the API Key I gave from renting on the app.idena.io marketplace.

I'd be very happy if someone could explain what difference a Human and a Newbie get when he rents an API Key for the same price.

The whole network is built on the concept of simultaneous validation, I don't see how staggering is a runner, unless they could somehow use sharding by timezone to validate each shared. However I don't think this is intended behaviour.

whether validation will now be exclusively on Saturdays?
if it is intentionally set to be only on Saturdays because of those who are busy on weekdays, Isn't Saturday a day to travel and rest from online things?
I hope this is only temporary.

It's set to Saturday I'm afraid. Also, you can login to your idena account on your mobile phone and solve validation on the go.

[Unsoldier]

There is a new version of the Idena node available: 0.28.2

Changes:
- Improving performance for the validation ceremony
- Improving peering for shared nodes
- Extending bootstrap nodes list

Update is recommended

That's a damn good video. Its nice to see that we finally see some work being done to spread awarness about project. Sadly only 500 views in 2 days... It shows how much it is to be done in marketing and how soon we are.

PS: If anyone wants invitation I'm here to help you.
