Humanode Announcements

Proof of Uniqueness with Biomapper on Verax just got a C2 upgrade. Smoother flow. Better UI. Easier verification.

And as part of the Biomapper C2 release campaign, the first 3,000 biomaps + bridges on Linea are free until September 30th

(Humanode refunds biomap, network, and bridge fees in HMND/eHMND)

Here’s how it works:

Biomap → Bridge to Linea → Verify on Verax

Your wallet is now marked as unique & human-verified inside the Verax registry, ready to be used across Linea dApps that plug into it.

Biomapper C2 is now live on Fuse.

Fuse moves money for real businesses and real users - fast, low-cost, and global. Great for growth, and a magnet for bots. Biomapper ensures that it remains for real humans.

Builders on Fuse can add a quick, private check that there’s a living, unique person behind a wallet before payouts, rewards, sign-ups, referrals, or access. No KYC. No forms. A few lines of code. One human = one wallet.

Keep Fuse’s payment rails smooth and affordable while your metrics, incentives, and communities stay sybil-resistant.

Get onchain uniqueness verification for free on Avalanche

Avalanche was the very first chain where Humanode Biomapper went live. Now with the launch of Biomapper C2, we’re giving it a big boost.

The first 10,000 biomaps + bridges on Avalanche are free.

(Humanode refunds biomap, network, and bridge fees in HMND/eHMND.)

Here’s how it works:
Biomap → Bridge to Avalanche → Your wallet is marked as unique human-verified.

That means one wallet = one real person, ready for Avalanche dApps that need Sybil resistance.

For builders on Avalanche: this free campaign means free user onboarding and an instant pool of verified wallets to plug into your dApp. Use it for airdrops, governance, mints, or any use case that requires poof of personhood.

Refunds for free slots will be airdropped on Sept 30th.

Rules & FAQs

At HumanodeCon IV in Romania, the panel debated: “How far are we from a Planetary DAO?” 🌍

The contra team argued:
👉 If there’s only one planetary DAO, a single failure could wipe everyone out.
👉 With many DAOs, each thriving in its own ecosystem, it would take multiple failures before humanity as a whole is affected.

So… what do you think?
Do you believe a planetary DAO is possible? 🤔

Humanity Score just got a new power-up.

Yes, Orange Protocol has just plugged in the Humanode Biomapper on the Ontology EVM.

Biomap → Bridge on Ontology EVM to earn +20 Humanity Score.

And here’s the hint:
In the coming weeks, Orange Protocol and Humanode will roll out new activities with incentives ; )

For a limited time, biomapping is free under the Biomapper C2 campaign (fees refunded until Sept 30). That means you can secure your Humanity Score boost at no cost. Getting verified now will put you ahead.

Don’t miss the chance to lock in your +20 Humanity Score early.

Rules & FAQs: https://blog.humanode.io/rules-and-faqs-for-biomapper-c2-campaign/

A business runs on trust in numbers.
Every click, every review, every sign-up is a promise: this is real.

But bots and duplicate accounts break that promise. They drain ad budgets, hijack rewards, and poison metrics. What looks like growth on paper is often just shadows.

At Humanode, we’ve built BotBasher, Biomapper, and OAuth2 to fight that shadow economy. And with Humanode 1.0, we’ll be bringing it all together with SRGate: a universal verification path to make sure behind every account there’s a unique human, not a script.

Because when businesses can measure real customers, trust in the digital economy can finally grow again.

🎙“Truth must resist capture.”
That’s the principle guiding Episteme, co-founded by Humanode’s own Sasha Shilina.

@Episteme_ac flips the incentive structure of science: instead of prestige and gatekeepers, hypotheses become open markets where validation is rewarded.

Episteme's Eidōlon Testnet is live on Humanode — and Sasha explains the vision in a new interview.

Episteme × Humanode: Toward a Market for Scientific Truth 👩🏻‍🔬

Science faces strain: replication crises, misaligned incentives, paywalls.
