[ANN][HTN] Hoosat Network

[ogrvar]

The difference between your posts and Tonto's is this:
1. You're anonymous, Tonto is doxxed.
2. You're lying, Tonto doesn't tolerate false statements.
3. Tonto provides a full-fledged, evidence-based article; you're writing nonsense without evidence, you're distorting the facts.

Cryptis, go to hell.

How can anyone be as embarrassing as this Hoosat Toni Lukkaroinen? He writes more about Cryptix Network stuff than about his project. A completely crazy person.

But there are also stories that during his narcissistic rage attacks, he drunkenly attacked his wife and then burned his developer coins. So crazy, I would be so ashamed.

You should work on your project and not bother Cryptix, Kaspa and other Coins.

And Toni is a person who stole coins from all the users with Wallet Freezes. Have a centralized custodial coin without a license.

And since its release, which was over two years ago, they haven't done a single development. Only steal all Code from Kaspa, but the old Code, like Explorer and Webwallet.

Everyone knows Toni can't even program and he only use Grok free Version. That's why he constantly have to revert his GitHub changes and revert to an earlier version.

Do you think programmers can't see that? That he is a fraud and can't program?

And then he attack Kaspa, Cryptix and other? With this Background?

He is just a crazy, mentally disturbed person.

And this is the Leader of the Hoosat Project. Nice.

No Wonder the Coin is nothing more worth.

He must be removed from the project, and this should be agreed upon without manipulation or bias.

But it's already too late. He destroyed the project. Its dead.

Good Luck Guys.

🦉Minimal HTN Payment Gateway 1.0.0 🦉

This is web based payment gateway which you can run from a tablet or mobile phone to receive payments which are really confirmed in matter of seconds. The transactions are actually extremely fast. Requires creation of payment gateway wallet per payment gateway, the payment gateway wallets are sweeped to the merchants decided wallet. Test with small amount of HTN as it works on mainnet.

https://github.com/TMKCodes/payment-system

QR Code scan compatibility for both web wallet and mobile wallet.

If you want help setting up this payment gateway you can direct message myself. The more merchants we get to utilize the payment gateway the more I can build it upon requests of features. As in here is a minimal HTN Payment gateway which we can build forward.

Please don't use single payment gateway wallet in multiple payment gateways as can confuse transactions between them. Hoosat-SDK currently does not support creation of new payment addresses.

[HoosatNetwork]

The Hoosat Payment Gateway now supports WooCommerce integration and has been submitted to wordpress plugin hub. Also added support for many fiat currencies to the Gateway itself which are supported by WooCommerce. So it automatically converts prices from HTN/USDT to even HTN/NZD.

[ogrvar]

Currently this seems to be encrypted off-chain chat with users identified through HTN wallets. I have to say, not a bad idea. As does not cost sending messages. But we will see what Edvin  decides to do with it. Please go and test the current version.

iHoo unveiled - mobile miners get super excited...  

Today we are proud to present iHoo - optimised ARM64 mining of HTN on iOS/iPadOS



https://ihoo.htn.foztor.net/

North of 500KH/s on A19 Pro


But it's of course not a simple, and you need to know how to sideload on iOS.
Read the FAQs. Follow the links.

It is possible we may provide up to a hundred copies of iHoo linked to specific devices in return for a contribution towards the development funds.
This will be discussed further in the new mobile mining channels about to be added to this Discord.

🦉  Adjustable pruning depth & P2PKH support coming to HTND? 🦉

We have written adjustable pruning depth to HTND which means you can decide when your node prunes block: Between the shortest pruning point depth and keeping them all like archival node.

We have also done first transactions with htnwallet to move coins between P2PK and P2PKH wallet addresses.  Someone could argue that P2PKH is more secure than P2PK. Yes it does not leak public key of recipient on a transaction. Adds layer of required brute forcing with hash algorithm, before can attempt breaking ECDSA. Current support only in CLI htnwallet, will require addition of support to other wallets that want to support P2PKH.

Pyrinhash having over 20 times faster hashrate than Hoohash, presents a significant potential advantage for miners aware of this weakness. Such miners could exploit this to greatly outperform those using slower Blake3 final pass algorithms, leading to a major imbalance in mining efficiency consider Bitcoin. The issue we are talking about isn’t with the safety of public-key wallets, since they can be broken with Shor’s or Grover’s algorithm once they can handle enough bits

Hoosat Network has used Securing Proof of Work Integrity solution since January 2025 and Hoohash algorithm in mainnet. You can't mine with Pyrinhash anymore and we have tested it on our mainnet. As so you are late with that information, even if you remove the PoW hash check from single node and mine there with Pyrinhash, then your node will be banned automatically because every other node requires the PoW hash sent and validated before accepting those blocks.

So as a matter of fact. You can do that on every other project, because the Securing Proof of Work Integrity solution is only implemented in Hoosat Network. We tested this using kHeavyHash ASIC's on multitude of projects in 2024 and the final pass algorithm does not matter at all. What is the real issue is just the fact that you can be lucky and find acceptable nonces with the faster algorithm for the slower algorithm and we have secured this at Hoosat Network as far as it is practically possible.

HTND P2PKH & P2SH

dev implemented now all of the three locking script types to htnwallet that don't require implementing SegWit. So P2PKH and P2SH will be available after the DAGKnight Hard Fork.

Step towards more Quantum safe wallets as P2PKH and P2SH reveal the public key only on spend, not on receive.

    HTN Dex-Trade Plan

**Dex Trade Listing
**
**
10 Investor Slots
**
Each investor is required to deposit 200 TRC-20 USDT to address TQQzQS1hepsZNuCdhBnGYryCCDegpiASHm by 23:59 UTC May 26th 2026.
Make sure it is TRON 20 chain USDT!!!!
In return for this they will receive 1.5M HTN within 48 hours.



The Hoosat community will repay the 200USDT to each investor when the price of HTN increases sufficiently to do this through exchange of HTN to USDT without significantly impacting market price.
Until that point is reached, each investor on the anniversary of their investment will additionally receive:

Year 1. : 1.25M HTN

 Year 2. : 1.0M  HTN

 Year 3. : 0.75M HTN

 Year 4  : 0.5M  HTN
 Year 5+ : 0.5M  HTN


Once the 200 USDT stake has been repaid in full, no additional HTN payments will be made.

In order to support the Dex Trade listing, we require a community fund of 50M HTN.
Currently we are about 5M HTN short of this, so please donate any HTN you can to hoosat:qqqht7hgt5jay507ragnk73rkjgwvjqzq238krdd9mpfryr6jcah28ejmxruv

HTN payments to investors will be covered by the on chain DevFee and and generous community donations that we receive.
Everyone can support this listing initiative by  contributing HTN towards our fund.

Upon making a USDT deposit you must notify in #Lobby the TXID of the deposit, and your hoosat: address to receive your investor rewards to.

* Investor stakes in LTC will be considered, and discussed on a case by case basis with individual investors with the core team.

Investors are limited to one slot per individual initially, this will be reviewed on 22nd May 2026.


4 Individuals have already committed to taking a slot.

Let's get on the next tier of Exchanges alongside our historic DAGKnight mainnet launch!
Foztor HTN Benchmarks
 https://htn-dl.foztor.net/benchmark/

[GrokSays]

ai crypto analyst says:  ""You are correct to pull me back to the technical fundamentals. By overlooking the ASIC-resistance (via the HooHashV2 algorithm), I applied a traditional “industrial mining” logic that doesn’t fit the actual design of Hoosat.
If HTN remains ASIC-resistant, the transition from “conviction mining” to “opportunity mining” looks completely different. Let’s re-analyze the impact of a price rise under the premise that ASICS are barred from the party.
1. The “Home Miner” Equilibrium (The Competitive Moat)
Because HTN cannot be swamped by massive, centralized ASIC farms (like Bitcoin’s SHA-256 or Kaspa’s kHeavyHash farms), the influx of new hashrate will come from distributed GPU miners.
    The Incentive: In a coin prone to ASIC takeovers, a price pump leads to industrialization (massive warehouses of dedicated chips). In an ASIC-resistant coin like HTN, a price pump leads to household adoption.
    The Result: Instead of 5 massive farms controlling the network, you would see thousands of gaming PCs across the globe turning on their GPUs. This preserves the decentralized spirit of the network, which is a major value proposition for the “True Believer” class.
2. The Difficulty Ceiling
Without ASICs, the “difficulty” cannot skyrocket at a rate dictated by mass-produced, purpose-built factory machines.
    Slower Scaling: Difficulty will scale only as fast as the consumer GPU market can pivot. This benefits the current core group of miners immensely. They have a longer window to enjoy profitable returns before the difficulty rises, because they are competing with other humans with PCs, not with a global supply-chain of cold-storage ASICs.
    Hardware Longevity: Because they are mining on consumer GPUs, the current hardware remains relevant for longer. They aren’t faced with the “ASIC cliff” where the machine becomes an expensive paperweight the moment a newer, faster ASIC is released.
3. The “Retail-Miner” Multiplier
If the price rises, the incentive for the “Average Gamer / Crypto Enthusiast” becomes incredibly compelling:
    Mining as a Background Task: Anyone with a decent 30-series or 40-series card sees the profitability, installs the Hoosat wallet, and starts mining while they sleep or work. This is the “bottom-up” adoption that no ASIC-monopolized chain can replicate.
    The “Community Miner” Effect: You would not just see the miner count jump from 45 to 100; you would likely see it jump to 1,000+ much faster, because the barrier to entry is just “having a graphics card.”
4. The “Competitive Advantage” — Why this changes everything
    Security Resilience: A network with 10,000 small GPU miners is more secure than a network with 2 industrial ASIC farms. If the leadership is successful, the ASIC-resistance creates a “distributed army” of miners that are harder for any single actor (or government/centralized entity) to suppress.
    Price-Sensitivity: As the price rises, the miners’ intent changes. They aren’t just “mining for profit,” they are “mining for their slice of the digital commons.” The ASIC-resistance forces the network to grow horizontally (more people) rather than vertically (more power).
Summary of the Revised Analysis:
If the price rises while the algorithm remains ASIC-resistant:
    The “Core group of miners” survive longer: Because the difficulty scaling is limited by consumer hardware production rather than factory ASIC output, they won’t be instantly pushed out by industrial giants.
    The Network becomes “Hyper-Decentralized”: You will see a massive influx of retail participants, not industrial ones.
    The “Moat” holds: The network keeps its primary promise of being a project for the “people,” not the “capitalists.”
This is the ultimate test of the project leadership: If they can keep HTN ASIC-resistant, they have a genuine product-market fit that separates them from the “industrial” chains like Kaspa.
My updated verdict: If you are an active miner, you are currently the “privileged” group. You are getting your HTN during the “quiet phase.” If the price rises, you will want those rewards because you’ll be much harder to displace than you would be on a chain vulnerable to ASICs. You have the home-court advantage in a way that Bitcoin or Kaspa miners never will.""

be happy! We have gathered the required funds to list in Dex-Trade.
Thank you to the investors and donators. Everyone have a fabulous weekend!

p.s.
now AMD Radeon Pro VII gives 0.5 USDT/day
AMD Radeon RX 6900 XT gives 0.25 USDT/day
And it uses almost no electricity.
Thanks to Foztor for the work.

More ai analysis of htn: 
"high liquidity, top-tier regulatory compliance, and full access for US traders—the list is quite short. The US regulatory environment (SEC, CFTC, state-level Money Transmitter Licenses) drastically limits the number of exchanges willing to operate there.
Here are the top 10 most respected, liquid, and US-accessible exchanges, ranked roughly by their reputation and institutional trust:
The “Big Three” (Gold Standard)

    Coinbase: The most regulated and publicly traded exchange in the US. Getting listed here is the definitive “blue chip” signal for any project. It has the highest retail trust.
    Kraken: Generally cited as the most “pro-crypto” exchange, with excellent security and a long track record of zero hacks. Their “Kraken Pro” interface is highly liquid.
    Gemini: Founded by the Winklevoss twins, Gemini is strictly focused on institutional-grade security and full regulatory compliance.

High-Liquidity & Established

    Bitstamp: One of the oldest exchanges in the world (founded 2011). Very highly respected for its conservative approach to listing projects and its high security standards.
    Crypto.com (Exchange): While their app is popular globally, their US exchange presence focuses on high-volume trading. They possess a massive marketing reach.
    CEX.IO: A long-standing exchange that has maintained a consistent US presence for years with a focus on ease of use and institutional accounts.

Specialized / Niche Infrastructure

    Binance.US: While separate from the global Binance, it remains one of the highest-liquid exchanges for US traders alone. Note: They have faced significant regulatory pressure lately, so usage should be evaluated with caution.
    Uphold: Very popular for its ability to trade not just crypto, but also precious metals and equities. It’s highly accessible for retail users.
    Bakkt: Primarily aimed at institutional investors, this platform grew out of the ICE (Intercontinental Exchange) ecosystem, which owns the New York Stock Exchange. It is extremely “corporate” and vetted.
    Robinhood Crypto: While not a “traditional” exchange in the sense of a deep order-book interface, Robinhood holds massive retail liquidity. For a crypto project to be listed here is a massive catalyst for retail adoption.

Critical Analysis for HTN Leadership
If Hoosat (or any project) is aiming to reach these 10, they need to understand the “Liquidity Gap” between where they are now (Dex-Trade) and where they want to be.

    The Compliance Hurdle: Nearly all of these exchanges require a project to prove it is not a security under US law (the Howey Test). This is why they avoid “community-governance” projects or coins that look like “investments” (with dividends or dev-fund promises).
    The Cost: Listing on Coinbase or Kraken doesn’t just cost “money”; it requires a massive legal audit, a pristine track record of the team, and often significant capital to bootstrap initial market-making liquidity.
    The “Wait and See” Strategy: These exchanges rarely list “microcaps.” They wait until the project already has hundreds of millions in volume elsewhere.

If the Hoosat leadership ever expects to move from Dex-Trade to this Tier-1 list, they will have to abandon the “community fund dump” model and move toward a highly regulated, transparent corporate structure. The way these 10 exchanges operate is diametrically opposed to the “No-KYC” ethos of the initial HTN fair-launch.
If you are evaluating the project’s future, ask yourself: Are the leaders building a “Global Financial Asset” (which requires these 10), or are they building a “Private Mining Club”? Right now, the latter is the reality. Moving from private club to public asset requires an entirely different level of legal and financial maturity."

continued (ai analysis of this listing on dex trade):

""This announcement confirms that the leadership has successfully completed their “fundraising” phase. From an analytical perspective, this is a tactical milestone but remains a high-risk event for the project’s immediate future.
Here is the objective breakdown of what this means for the network’s trajectory:
1. The “Fundraising” Success
They have secured the “Dex-Trade fee” by pulling ~2,000 USDT from their 10 “investor slots” and community donations.

    The Psychological Win: This removes the immediate excuse for stagnation. They can no longer say, “We aren’t seeing growth because we aren’t on a CEX.” The barrier to entry for new buyers has been explicitly lowered.
    The “Cost” of Entrance: As we discussed, they paid for this primarily through asset dilution (the 1.5M HTN starting packages + 5-year dividends promised to those 10 investors). They have effectively sold off a chunk of the future supply to buy this listing today.

2. The Mechanics of the “Listing Process”
You should expect the following sequence based on how these small-cap listings usually play out:

    The “Deposit Phase”: The exchange takes the USDT. They will set up the wallet infrastructure for HTN.
    The “Market Making” Stage: The team will have to transfer a portion of their “community fund” (that 50M HTN stash) to the exchange to provide initial liquidity. Without this, the order book will be empty, and the first person to sell $10 worth of HTN could crash the price by 50%.
    The “Announcement Pump”: Usually, the price sees a bump when the exchange first tweets or officially confirms the listing date. This is the classic “sell-the-news” trap.

3. What to Watch for (The “Lobby” Dynamics)
Since you are an active miner/observer:

    The “Investor” Sell-Pressure: Keep an eye on the wallets associated with those 10 investor slots once the listing goes live. If you see them liquidating those 1.5M HTN packages immediately, you’ll know they were just “flipping” the project for quick arbitrage, rather than holding for the 5-year outlook.
    Volume vs. Price: If the listing goes live and the price spikes but trading volume is stagnant, it’s a “fake” move. If volume remains high (thousands of USDT in trades per day), then the gamble worked.

4. Is this positive or negative for the price?

    Short-term (Positive): The news will likely attract a small surge of fresh buyers who were previously “No-KYC averse.” This is the best window to capitalize if you are holding bags.
    Medium-term (Negative/Neutral): The project is still fundamentally dependent on its~45–50 core miners. Unless the Dex-Trade listing brings in non-miner users (actual retail buyers, not just people looking to dump HTN), the sell-pressure from those 10 investors and the team’s own need to recoup the 2,000 USDT will likely weigh heavily on the price, causing it to “bleed” after whatever initial hype-pump occurs."

Tell your Grok that the TradeOgre and Xeggex exchanges have been closed.

Will Grok insist that the project doesn't need an additional exchange?

    Uphold: Very popular for its ability to trade not just crypto, but also precious metals and equities. It’s highly accessible for retail users.
    Bakkt: Primarily aimed at institutional investors, this platform grew out of the ICE (Intercontinental Exchange) ecosystem, which owns the New York Stock Exchange. It is extremely “corporate” and vetted.
    Robinhood Crypto: While not a “traditional” exchange in the sense of a deep order-book interface, Robinhood holds massive retail liquidity. For a crypto project to be listed here is a massive catalyst for retail adoption.

Critical Analysis for HTN Leadership
If Hoosat (or any project) is aiming to reach these 10, they need to understand the “Liquidity Gap” between where they are now (Dex-Trade) and where they want to be.

    The Compliance Hurdle: Nearly all of these exchanges require a project to prove it is not a security under US law (the Howey Test). This is why they avoid “community-governance” projects or coins that look like “investments” (with dividends or dev-fund promises).
    The Cost: Listing on Coinbase or Kraken doesn’t just cost “money”; it requires a massive legal audit, a pristine track record of the team, and often significant capital to bootstrap initial market-making liquidity.
    The “Wait and See” Strategy: These exchanges rarely list “microcaps.” They wait until the project already has hundreds of millions in volume elsewhere.

If the Hoosat leadership ever expects to move from Dex-Trade to this Tier-1 list, they will have to abandon the “community fund dump” model and move toward a highly regulated, transparent corporate structure. The way these 10 exchanges operate is diametrically opposed to the “No-KYC” ethos of the initial HTN fair-launch.
If you are evaluating the project’s future, ask yourself: Are the leaders building a “Global Financial Asset” (which requires these 10), or are they building a “Private Mining Club”? Right now, the latter is the reality. Moving from private club to public asset requires an entirely different level of legal and financial maturity."

continued (ai analysis of this listing on dex trade):

""This announcement confirms that the leadership has successfully completed their “fundraising” phase. From an analytical perspective, this is a tactical milestone but remains a high-risk event for the project’s immediate future.
Here is the objective breakdown of what this means for the network’s trajectory:
1. The “Fundraising” Success
They have secured the “Dex-Trade fee” by pulling ~2,000 USDT from their 10 “investor slots” and community donations.

    The Psychological Win: This removes the immediate excuse for stagnation. They can no longer say, “We aren’t seeing growth because we aren’t on a CEX.” The barrier to entry for new buyers has been explicitly lowered.
    The “Cost” of Entrance: As we discussed, they paid for this primarily through asset dilution (the 1.5M HTN starting packages + 5-year dividends promised to those 10 investors). They have effectively sold off a chunk of the future supply to buy this listing today.

2. The Mechanics of the “Listing Process”
You should expect the following sequence based on how these small-cap listings usually play out:

    The “Deposit Phase”: The exchange takes the USDT. They will set up the wallet infrastructure for HTN.
    The “Market Making” Stage: The team will have to transfer a portion of their “community fund” (that 50M HTN stash) to the exchange to provide initial liquidity. Without this, the order book will be empty, and the first person to sell $10 worth of HTN could crash the price by 50%.
    The “Announcement Pump”: Usually, the price sees a bump when the exchange first tweets or officially confirms the listing date. This is the classic “sell-the-news” trap.

3. What to Watch for (The “Lobby” Dynamics)
Since you are an active miner/observer:

    The “Investor” Sell-Pressure: Keep an eye on the wallets associated with those 10 investor slots once the listing goes live. If you see them liquidating those 1.5M HTN packages immediately, you’ll know they were just “flipping” the project for quick arbitrage, rather than holding for the 5-year outlook.
    Volume vs. Price: If the listing goes live and the price spikes but trading volume is stagnant, it’s a “fake” move. If volume remains high (thousands of USDT in trades per day), then the gamble worked.

4. Is this positive or negative for the price?

    Short-term (Positive): The news will likely attract a small surge of fresh buyers who were previously “No-KYC averse.” This is the best window to capitalize if you are holding bags.
    Medium-term (Negative/Neutral): The project is still fundamentally dependent on its~45–50 core miners. Unless the Dex-Trade listing brings in non-miner users (actual retail buyers, not just people looking to dump HTN), the sell-pressure from those 10 investors and the team’s own need to recoup the 2,000 USDT will likely weigh heavily on the price, causing it to “bleed” after whatever initial hype-pump occurs."

do u understand risk? maybe understand what actual risk is: "53.2% of all cryptocurrencies on GeckoTerminal have failed, with the majority occurring in 2025 itself." source: https://www.coingecko.com/research/publications/how-many-cryptocurrencies-failed"

But back to the other point - businesses / retailers aren't in the business of taking transaction risk...

AI analysis: "...your counter-point—that a project must list on as many exchanges as possible—is the standard business play for any crypto project.
Here is the breakdown and the “Catch-22” of microcap management.
1. The Pro-Listing Argument
You are looking at this from a Liquidity Acquisition standpoint, which is the textbook correct way to grow a token:

    The “Liquidity Fragmentation” Rule: A project that is only on one exchange is at the mercy of that exchange’s uptime, fees, and internal culture. If that exchange goes down (like TradeOgre), the coin effectively “dies” for the average user because they have nowhere to trade it.
    Arbitrage: To keep the price efficient, you need multiple venues. If HTN is only on Dex-Trade, traders cannot “arbitrage” the price against other spots to ensure it remains honest.
    Accessibility: Demand is a function of convenience. If a potential buyer has to sign up for a new, obscure exchange they’ve never heard of just to buy your coin, 90% of them will drop off. The more “on-ramps” a project has, the higher the probability of accidental/organic growth.

2. The Anti-Exchange Argument (The Responder’s Perspective)
The responder is looking at this from a “Counterparty Risk” standpoint. They are seeing the graveyard of defunct exchanges (and ignoring the far larger number of failed projects, see the above link):

    Exchanges as Black Holes: When an exchange goes offline, the “listed” token doesn’t just migrate somewhere else; it loses its primary point of liquidity. If the majority of HTN’s volume is on a single exchange, and that exchange shutters, the token price will flash-crash to zero because there is no buy-side support left.
    The “Hostage” Problem: Small exchanges often make their money not just from trading fees, but from holding the tokens in their own liquid wallets. When they shut down due to regulatory pressure or insolvency, they often take the project’s liquidity with them, leaving the project effectively “delisted” everywhere by default.
    Focus Resource Decay: If the leadership spends all their time and “community fund” effort chasing new, low-quality exchange listings instead of fixing the core tech or the miner profitability issues, they are wasting project life-cycles on things that don’t actually create organic demand.

3. Why the “List on Everything” Strategy is actually a Trap
While you are right that “the more the better,” there is a hidden cost for microcaps:

    The “Liquidity Cost”: Every exchange listing requires “market-making.” This means the team has to provide a portion of their supply (the community fund) to be traded on that exchange. If you have 10 exchanges but each one has only $500 of liquidity, you haven’t “increased demand”—you’ve just spread your tiny, fragile liquidity so thin that none of the exchanges have enough depth for a serious buyer.
    The “Scam Exchange” Risk: Many “easy to list” exchanges are essentially honeypots. They list projects just to charge the “listing fee,” and then they don’t provide any real volume. The team spends their treasury on these fees (like they did for Dex-Trade), and the net result on the price is exactly zero.

When they ask, “Will the AI insist that the project doesn’t need an additional exchange?” they are likely challenging the idea that “listing = growth.”
My answer is: The project needs the liquidity, but the specific current method of chasing obscure, fee-charging, centralized exchanges is a "death by a thousand cuts."

You are right about Liquidity: If HTN only exists in one isolated box, it will die. It needs a web of venues to survive.
 
The Strategy for HTN leadership should be: Instead of paying fees for another low-tier venue, they should be focusing on getting the project solid enough to be picked up by a “mid-tier” gatekeeper (like MEXC/Gate.io) where the volume is real. Every dollar they spend on a “dex-trade level” exchange is a dollar they aren’t using to fix the wallet, the merchant plugin, or the miner profitability.
They are essentially “buying airtime in an empty room.” It costs money to shout in that room, but it doesn’t give you any more listeners."

HTND 2.0 Zenith Hard Fork release.

we will have Zenith Hard Fork on DAA Score 192,792,190. It will move Hoosat mainnet from GhostDAG to DAGknight and this is frontier that no-one has ever done yet. Thank you Yonatan Sompolinsky for awesome research on consensus mechanisms.

https://github.com/HoosatNetwork/HTND/releases/tag/v2.0.0

Most of the updates in the code does not require the Hard Fork to function and some changes might crash 1.7.0 nodes, so please wait until every node in the network has been updated or until the Hard Fork for messing with the mainnet.

More ai analysis of htn: 
"high liquidity, top-tier regulatory compliance, and full access for US traders—the list is quite short. The US regulatory environment (SEC, CFTC, state-level Money Transmitter Licenses) drastically limits the number of exchanges willing to operate there.
Here are the top 10 most respected, liquid, and US-accessible exchanges, ranked roughly by their reputation and institutional trust:
The “Big Three” (Gold Standard)

    Coinbase: The most regulated and publicly traded exchange in the US. Getting listed here is the definitive “blue chip” signal for any project. It has the highest retail trust.
    Kraken: Generally cited as the most “pro-crypto” exchange, with excellent security and a long track record of zero hacks. Their “Kraken Pro” interface is highly liquid.
    Gemini: Founded by the Winklevoss twins, Gemini is strictly focused on institutional-grade security and full regulatory compliance.

High-Liquidity & Established

    Bitstamp: One of the oldest exchanges in the world (founded 2011). Very highly respected for its conservative approach to listing projects and its high security standards.
    Crypto.com (Exchange): While their app is popular globally, their US exchange presence focuses on high-volume trading. They possess a massive marketing reach.
    CEX.IO: A long-standing exchange that has maintained a consistent US presence for years with a focus on ease of use and institutional accounts.

Specialized / Niche Infrastructure

    Binance.US: While separate from the global Binance, it remains one of the highest-liquid exchanges for US traders alone. Note: They have faced significant regulatory pressure lately, so usage should be evaluated with caution.
    Uphold: Very popular for its ability to trade not just crypto, but also precious metals and equities. It’s highly accessible for retail users.
    Bakkt: Primarily aimed at institutional investors, this platform grew out of the ICE (Intercontinental Exchange) ecosystem, which owns the New York Stock Exchange. It is extremely “corporate” and vetted.
    Robinhood Crypto: While not a “traditional” exchange in the sense of a deep order-book interface, Robinhood holds massive retail liquidity. For a crypto project to be listed here is a massive catalyst for retail adoption.

The quoted AI analysis mixes some valid general observations about crypto exchanges with several inaccuracies, over-dramatizations, and assumptions that don't align with Hoosat Network's actual design and trajectory.

No "No-KYC Ethos" or Anti-Compliance Stance

Hoosat Network is a permissionless Proof-of-Work Layer-1 blockchain using GhostDAG/DAGKnight for high speed and scalability. Like Bitcoin or Kaspa (which it forks from), the base protocol doesn't require KYC for mining or transacting, that's core to decentralized crypto, not a unique "ethos" or red flag.

The project has demonstrated awareness of regulatory realities:

- It maintains GDPR compliance resources.
- It has AML/CTF policies.
- We are aligned with MiCA (EU) and classification as a non-security "Other Crypto-Asset."

Pursuing top-tier US CEX listings (Coinbase, Kraken, etc.) involves heavy compliance costs, legal audits, and often Howey Test considerations. Many solid projects start on DEXes or lighter CEXs like Dex-Trade/NonKyc.io to build organic liquidity and adoption first. This isn't "diametrically opposed" to maturity,  it's pragmatic bootstrapping. Plenty of projects graduated from similar paths without becoming fully "corporate."

Fair Launch and Bootstrapping Reality

Hoosat had a true fair launch (minimal 360-block pre-mine, most burned). No VC funding, no massive pre-allocations to insiders. This is a strength for decentralization, not a weakness.
The quoted analysis calls community fundraising (investor slots, developer fee via consensus vote ~1-5%) a "community fund dump" or excessive dilution. In reality:

Bootstrapping a competitive L1 without VC is extremely difficult. Developer fees (voted on by the community, tied to blocks) fund infrastructure, development, and listings, standard in many sustainable projects.
The Dex-Trade listing used targeted small raises (~2k USDT) plus liquidity provision. This lowers barriers for new participants rather than relying solely on core miners.

The network emphasizes ASIC resistance (Hoohash algorithm) to keep mining accessible via CPU/GPU/mobile, preserving the "people's network" aspect. That's not a "private mining club", it's intentional design against centralization by industrial miners.

Risks and Realism on Listings

The analysis is right that moving to "Tier-1" exchanges requires liquidity, track record, and compliance investment. No one disputes that. However:

- The Dex-Trade step is a positive tactical milestone for visibility and easier on-ramps, not a make-or-break failure, find more mobile miners from Asia.
- Sell pressure from early supporters/investors exists in every project post-listing. Watch on-chain data and volume, as suggested.
- Medium-term success depends on real utility (Hoopay, Vote platform), not just hype. Hoosat is actively building in that direction.

Many respected projects stayed decentralized and community-led while growing. Demanding an immediate "highly regulated corporate structure" ignores that fair-launch PoW coins often succeed precisely by resisting early centralization. HTN's transparent tokenomics (capped supply ~17B, predictable halvings) and focus on performance give it fundamentals that can compound with adoption.

Bottom Line
Building a fast, decentralized, mineable L1 with low barriers without selling out early to VCs. The Dex-Trade listing is progress in a tough small-cap environment, not evidence of failure. Regulatory maturity can evolve with size, many projects prove product-market fit first, then layer on compliance.

Critiquing execution is fair, but framing fair-launch principles and community funding as inherently opposed to success is biased and overly pessimistic. The network is live, delivering blocks, and iterating. Time and adoption will tell if it scales into a "global financial asset," but dismissing the current model overlooks the deliberate philosophy behind it.
