Dear community!

Due to economic reasons we have decided to cease validation for some chains . This isn't against any chain but for our business's best interest.

Support for Mars Protocol and Gravity Bridge will end on Oct 20th, giving our delegators time to redelegate.

Thank you for all your support ♥️

Application Submitted for ICF Second Delegation Cohort!

We're excited to announce that we've submitted our application for the second cohort of ICF (Interchain Foundation) delegations (Read more: ICF Delegations Program Cycle 2).
This is our first submission to the ICF Delegation Program and we are hopeful for opportunity to contribute to the ecosystem.

Here are some key updates for this round:

- Extended Delegation Period: Delegations will now last for a full year, doubling the previous duration from six months.
- Expanded Validator Criteria: Validators will receive points not only for validating RS chains, but also for their contributions to the network.
- Enhanced Contribution Scoring: Unlike the previous round, where each contribution earned a flat 1 point, contributions are now scored on a scale of 1-5, reflecting their complexity and impact.

For a detailed overview of the application process and delegation policy, please refer to the discussion here: ICF Delegations Policy v2.0

The application window will close today, followed by the evaluation period.

Wish us luck! 🙏

To all validators who participated in #sei Atlantic-1 and did not receive the rewards

Please fill up the Atlantic-1 OG Seilors Form

If your Discord username were not changed since then, fill it with the same user details.

#sei moderators have very limited information from the team, there is no timelines to when we can expect some updates

Team confirmed that there was an error in collecting the data from Atlantic-1 so team needs you to fill up the form now

Quick question about #sei rewards for validators in act-1

Does anyone here in a chat who is in the Act-1 scoreboard could claim the rewards?

Raise your hand if you are in the list above 🤚

We are expanding our tools to the testnets 🦄

https://twitter.com/kjnodes/status/1693999063254102412

List of publicly exposed RPC endpoints

We are constantly building tools for Cosmos ecosystem and here is our latest development.

Our team has built a tool which periodically scans the network and provides with list of publicly exposed RPC endpoints. This can be useful for anyone who are looking for archive nodes or just RPC endpoint for personal use. Data is being collected daily on scheduled basis.

We mark publicly exposed validators with ⚠️ sign. It gives good visual representation of weak points in the chain security. Validators should have a firewall configured, instead of being exposed to the public. This is a best practice for limiting the attack surface of validators.

If you want to integrate it into your flow here is raw json data available.

To learn more look for the 'Public RPC' sub-page under the main project at our services website: https://services.kjnodes.com

If you have any suggestions how we can improve the tool we are happy to hear you out

I am very disappointed in #sei project team. Many month of contributions to the project. Top 1 in the scoreboard for the first phase of the network. Not eligible for rewards...

All i can say about the team:
- lack of transparency
- lack of communication
- lack of competence

Hello there friends! KJ reporting here.

As you all may already know tomorrow on 15th of August at 12:00 UTC Binance will open trading for #sei tokens

This was fun time where we all together participated in the Testnet trying to solve the challenges and tasks that team did prepare for us in a hope to get future airdrop.

Not to mention our team even managed to get the highest score in the first phase of the Testnet. If you are in the list you most likely will receive an airdrop after the chain launch!

Team did not gave detailed information about the size or time when airdrop will be distributed but as I know they are working on a announcement.

This was the last tweet where they mentioned about the airdrop for early supporters.

P.S.
Sadly our team did not make it to the mainnet as we were dropped out down the road. The selection process for mainnet validators has raised concerns due to its lack of transparency. All we know there is closed private group of validators who already run the chain.

*From 00:00 on April 15, 2023 to 16:00 on April 22, 2023 (UTC), KuCoin will randomly take hourly snapshots of users' USDT, USDC, BTC, ETH, and KCS total balances. The hourly average Net Asset Value will determine the final number of lottery tickets each user can receive. Winners will be chosen in a lottery draw after the subscription period.
*More total balance you have, more tickets you will get.

2. Okex Jumpstart (Good option if you already hold OKB tokens)

*You can receive up to 4 lottery tickets for each OKB token held. The number of tokens held is calculated by averaging 3 snapshots of your OKB holdings over the last 3 days. Winning tickets grant you 100 SUI.
*This option forces you to buy OKB token that can be dumped before the sale.

Cosmos-Based DeFi Protocol Quasar Started Mainnet After Raising More Than $11.5M 🚀

Chain has launched yesterday on March 22nd, from behind the scenes with an initial set of 23 genesis validators including kjnodes validator 🎉

Quasar is an appchain for decentralized asset management designed to interoperate with a broad network of blockchains implementing the Inter-Blockchain Communication protocol. Quasar uses vaults and their strategies to gather and deploy capital.

👷 For future validators

There will be more slots for permissionless validators opening up at the time of the TGE that is expected in Q2 2023. Until then, inflation will remain at 0% so nobody is missing out. The Quasar team will lean on Interchain Foundation guidelines to delegate team and foundation allocation to validators who, after launch, provide additional value-add services such as relaying, RPC endpoints, or archive nodes.

💸 Testnet Rewards & Incentives

Addresses who engaged in two or more vault interactions during our testnet are eligible for an airdrop once we reach the QSR token generation event (TGE) . A snapshot of the testnet chain was taken at the time of mainnet launch where over 20 000 wallets were qualified for the airdrop.

Full blog post: https://www.quasar.fi/blog/quasar-has-landed-interchain-vaults-for-cosmos-and-beyond
Official tweet: https://twitter.com/QuasarFi/status/1639315385345359891

Currently the transfer and usage of the QSR token will be limited to securing the chain. Users DO NOT need to hold any QSR at this moment to use the first Interchain vaults. Fees can be payed in OSMO.

Quasar incentivized testnet has officially wrapped up!

Team will announce eligibility criteria for incentives very soon.

Now you can trade your QCK tokens on Osmosis Frontier
