It’s time for HOPR Staking Season 6! 🔥💰 Season 6 will run from January 26th 2pm CET to April 26th 2pm CEST. The parameters have changed again, to ensure we’re mostly rewarding active participants: 👉 Base APR has changed from 2.5% to 1.25% 👉 Boost cap has increased from 200,000 to 250,000 👉 New network rewards for node runners will start soon To get started, head to https://stake-s5.hoprnet.org/ once the season ends to unstake. Just press the Unlock button to automatically receive your xHOPR stake, wxHOPR rewards and NFTs. Then head to https://stake.hoprnet.org to restake in Season 6. 🚨 Remember to unwrap your wxHOPR first with our wrapper widget: https://wrapper.hoprnet.org/ When the season launches, you’ll notice the UI has received a much-needed overhaul! You’ll also see new rows for our network rewards: one for next expected reward and another showing cumulative earnings this season. The first reward period will start in a few weeks, to allow everyone time to unstake and migrate their NFTs. If you want to keep your node linked to the same address, just restake the NFT in the Season 6 contract. If you want to change addresses, you’ll need to reregister your node in the network registry contract, or wait until we automatically sync the registry in around a week. ⏳ If you’re not in the network yet, don’t worry, there will be rewards for non node runners as always.

The idea for RPCh is barely a few months old, but we already have an amazing new team and the first live version is fast approaching. 🚀 For the next four weeks, our RPCh Product Lead Steve will be looking back on how we got here in The Road to RPCh. We’ll be sharing plenty of tech details with you as we get closer to launch, but this series will focus on a product development angle we don’t often hear about in crypto! We’ll talk about: 🟡 Forming the idea 🟡 Designing the prototype 🟡 Building and training a team 🟡 Bridging the gap from prototype to real-world product Read the first part here: https://medium.com/hoprnet/the-road-to-rpch-part-1-e0dcedf7f3c9

Dear node runners, This a quick reminder of what you should do if you are having trouble running your node. 🆘 If you need help setting up your node for the first time or migrating between releases, feel free to message us on Telegram for support. But for all issues relating to node connectivity or issues with your node being unresponsive, please consult the HOPR troubleshooting wizard first. 🧙 https://forms.gle/y15NZfqb4ASqnJku8 After going through the materials provided in the wizard, if your issue is not solved, it will let you contact us with all the information we need for a quick diagnostic. This is the best practice for getting your issue resolved, as we need all this information in one place to troubleshoot your node properly. ✅ Kind regards, The HOPR team. P.S. Any and all feedback on the wizard is welcome and appreciated

The RAI I-term update will take place in 1 month, on Feb 17th, the 2nd anniversary of RAI's Ethereum mainnet launch! The Ki will be reduced by a factor of 4x, slowing down the integral accumulation by about 4x. The decay term will be left as is for now. https://t.co/t7nXl0nCFc

Dear community, We’ve exciting news! 🚨 Monte Rosa 1.1 is here 🚨 This new release comes off a 3-month effort focused on improving network stability and community insight. Here’s everything you need to know about Monte Rosa 1.1: 🟡 As our network continues to scale, it’s important that we increase the availability of tools and materials that you, our community, can use for troubleshooting, analysing and monitoring their nodes. Currently, the Grafana dashboards are only accessible to Dappnode users. In the coming weeks, we’ll push this to the Docker/Avado setups, but for now, it was implemented on Dappnode first due to the ease of integration provided by the native DMS (Dappnode Monitoring System) package. 🟡 We not only worked on the backend to create a more stable and functional network but also on two visible connectivity features: 👉 Implementation of a graphical health indicator 👉 Remodelling of the API command outputs, giving more detailed and standardised responses 🟡 Let’s talk Network Registry and waitlist. The Network Registry was introduced in the initial Monte Rosa release as a utility for the guarded and incremental scaling of the network. While we don’t believe that the HOPR network should be permissioned, it is a necessary tool for the initial scaling of the network. BUT as the network has remained so stable, we’ve decided to increase the scaling rate to fifteen new users every Monday! 🎉 If you haven’t joined the waitlist, use this form: forms.gle/LjhH1mk7n8C1RBQw9 🟡 As announced last week, we’re taking a significant step in transitioning to the type of incentivisation scheme which can power the permissionless HOPR network with the launch of staking season 6. One more reason to join the waitlist: forms.gle/LjhH1mk7n8C1RBQw9 As always, we’ve compiled all necessary information for the new release in one blog. 📕 medium.com/hoprnet/monte-rosa-1-1-public-release-90fa98fa6b08

Introducing the new HOPR troubleshooting wizard! 🧙 The new first stop on all HOPR node troubleshooting journeys: forms.gle/GtJLhY81ZFSkJWVs6 The troubleshooting wizard is a quick self-troubleshooting guide for node-runners to refer to before contacting support. 🆘 If the issue is unresolved, the form will let you contact us with all the necessary information we need to diagnose your issue efficiently. 🧙 We created the troubleshooting wizard out of necessity as HOPR continues to scale and hit new milestones. We need a central point of contact for our node-runners so that we can resolve issues with as little back and forth as possible. 1️⃣ Node runners should consult this wizard first before contacting Ambassadors / the team on TG. 2️⃣ Go through all the self-troubleshooting steps first. 3️⃣ Once exhausted, use the wizard to contact us with all the required information. This is quite a simple but very useful tool and will be followed by more advanced materials for node analysis in the coming weeks. But we’ll talk more about those in the coming days. For now, if you are a node runner, we would love for you to test out the form and give any feedback you might have. 💬 We appreciate and value every bit of input! 💛

Dear privacy enthusiasts! Big changes for HOPR Staking Season 6, including a brand new type of node-running reward! 🔥💰 HOPR’s sixth staking season begins on January 26th. ⏳ The focus this season is on node running. So if you haven’t got your access NFT yet, make sure to join the waitlist: https://forms.gle/rHLwbXVZyATRuRmK7 Now that the network is stable and scalable, it’s time to transition towards the HOPR incentive endgame, when 100% of rewards come from the HOPR protocol. 🚀 The first step is our new extra rewards for Season 6, which will use a budgeted system rather than the APR of the rest of the staking program. Instead of NFTs, node runners will earn xHOPR tokens sent directly to your staking account. 💸 Every two weeks, we’ll pick a new metric or metrics to measure. 🎯 When the reward period ends, the token budget will be automatically and proportionally divided between all participating nodes based on performance. 📊 We’ll be making further updates to https://network.hoprnet.org and https://stake.hoprnet.org so you can easily track your new rewards. 👏 Stake doesn’t matter here (except as a way to get network access in the first place) rewards are solely based on your node performance each period. 🚀 This is a brand-new reward mechanism, but the rest of the staking program isn’t going away. ⛔️ Season 6 will still have a base APR and HOPR boost NFTs as usual. There will also be rewards and activities targeted at people on the waitlist, so no one should miss out! 💛 To prepare, make sure you’re signed up for the wait list if you’re not already. You can learn more about the waitlist, the network registry, and running a HOPR node in our docs https://docs.hoprnet.org AND you can read even more in our new blog! 📕 https://medium.com/hoprnet/1373b9b26e75

It’s time for your tri-weekly #DevUpdate! 🛠️ This has been a productive sprint for our Devs, so let’s see what they’ve been up to 🧑🏻‍💻 🟡 Firstly, we’ve integrated a @grafana setup for HOPR nodes across all three platforms: 👉 Local Docker 👉 Dappnode 👉 Avado 🟡 This means very soon, you’ll be able to see a whole array of new metrics to monitor your nodes, from basic data consumption to detailed heartbeat metrics. 🎯 github.com/hoprnet/hoprnet/pull/4472 🟡 On the community side, guides to access these dashboards/metrics and how to interpret and use them will be released in the coming weeks as the new release rolls out 🏔️ 🟡 Next up, we’ve migrated our smart contract toolchain from Hardhat to Foundry. This is a significant milestone in our ongoing goal to move our project from TypeScript and Node.js over to Rust by the end of Q2 github.com/hoprnet/hoprnet/pull/4230 🟡 Once we’ve migrated our project, we’ll leverage Rust's low-level optimisations to bring you a more efficient and reliable, feature-complete version of the HOPR mixnet by the end of Q3! 🙏 🟡 After hitting those two large milestones, we finish the sprint off with several bug fixes, two notable ones being: 1️⃣ A fix for the Invalid announcement of multi-addresses on Dappnode/Avado github.com/hoprnet/hoprnet/pull/4467 2️⃣ Fixed duplicate handling of nodes on the Network Registry database github.com/hoprnet/hoprnet/pull/4454 🟡 Finally, we added a contribution to clap (a Rust library for CLI argument handling). The contribution allows the parsing of environment variables from a custom source. github.com/clap-rs/clap/pull/4605 🟡 As we push to scale our network and bring you a fully fledged HOPR mixnet, it’s important we add as many quality nodes to the network as possible.

Some people have shown some confusion between DERP and RPCh, so we thought we'd take the time to explain the difference. tl;dr - DERP shows the problem with your wallet and RPC providers, RPCh provides the solution 🟡 DERP - http://derp.hoprnet.org DERP is a tool that replicates the functionality of your regular RPC provider but makes every RPC call visible to you, along with the service that requested it! How does DERP work? When you open your wallet, it uses an RPC provider to request basic information such as your token balance. If you then use a (d)app like the Uniswap, its UI will start making calls to various RPC endpoints. These calls can and often do expose massive amounts of data about you, including links between your different Metamask addresses, your IP address, device information and almost every interaction you have with a web3 service. By connecting your wallet with DERP, you will see the actual calls and what information it exposes to RPC providers. DERP tool doesn’t provide any privacy, it is only for educational purposes. 🟡 RPCh - https://hoprnet.org/rpch In web3, almost every transaction relies on infrastructure provided by closed-source, centralized infrastructure providers like Infura/Alchemy who you simply have to trust not to misuse your data. Even if these providers are honest, it’s still a huge privacy and security risk to handle vital metadata like IP addresses in this way. How does RPCh work? RPCh prevents this leak by routing requests and responses via the HOPR network. The difference! In short, the difference between DERP & RPCh is that DERP is a monitoring tool which shows what metadata you're leaking to your default RPC provider and when you are connected to a specific service. In contrast, RPCh is a product which will help you to prevent leaking your metadata from RPC providers or specific services. In even shorter terms: DERP shows the problem, while RPCh is the solution.

Dear Community! Thank you to all who are interested in participating on the Monte Rosa release! 🙏 As we are receiving new signups we have updated a waitlist! Updated waitlist sheet is here: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/13RcEaB2PyovJ4oEx0ViT3v5QeqpdxBJ74Pk3dyALCF8 If you have any questions please read first here: https://docs.hoprnet.org/node/waitlist-FAQ

Dear Community! We started the process of updating the waitlist, but we noticed that the majority of new signups haven't staked the minimum (2000 HOPR tokens for regular users, 1000 for AVADO / DAppNode users). We don't want you to have to wait for the next update, so we're extending the process until Friday Dec 30th 4PM CET, so you will have plenty of time to stake. The waitlist will be updated on Friday at 5PM CET! If you have any questions please check here: https://docs.hoprnet.org/node/waitlist-FAQ
