Pre-onchain DAO era: sudo module and multisig

Pre-onchain DAO era: sudo module and multisig

Hi there, human nodes and friends, Today we wanted to go over how the pre-onchain DAO will work and highlight several critical security measures that were put in place so that the Humanode network, during its early days, is adequately secured until it matures into an established network. All of

Everything you want to know about Humanode Fee Distribution mechanism

Everything you want to know about Humanode Fee Distribution mechanism

Hi there, Human nodes and friends! Today we are going to talk about the fee distribution and bootstrapping fund and our approach to handle them. This is a very intricate theme and there are a lot of moving parts, which will take years of empirical research to verify and assemble.

Biometrically secured storage networks

Biometrically secured storage networks

Lately the idea of biometrically secured decentralized storage networks has been boggling my mind. Wanted to share some thoughts and hear your opinions on the matter. So imagine a decentralized storage network like IPFS or BitTorrent protocol but where the storage nodes are bioauthorized by real unique human beings. Originally

Proof of Personhood Approaches

Proof of Personhood Approaches

Proof of Personhood (PoP) is a permissionless consensus participation and Sybil attack resistance mechanism in which each unique human participant receives one equal unit of voting power and accompanying rewards. Let's discuss and compare some of the PoP mechanisms.

2021: Year in Review

2021: Year in Review

Dear human nodes, That’s a wrap! We’re winding down 2021 with a look back at Humanode’s milestones including 2 testnet launches, ecosystem partnerships, and team scaling. Tech delivery Of course, our biggest news of the year was Humanode’s first testnet launch. In September, our team launched

Blockchain Architecture

Blockchain Architecture

The Humanode implementation will be a manageable, dependable codebase that will be actively developed for many years. A good foundation is required to develop a high-quality system, and the first decision to make is on a programming language for implementation.

Humanode & Ethereum compatibility

Humanode & Ethereum compatibility

Ethereum Virtual Machine (EVM) All blockchains are considered to be a form of a distributed ledger also called DLT (distributed ledger technology), which is a consensus of shared, and synchronized duplicated digital data, a database with no central regulator. This ‘distributed ledger’ analogy applies to characterize the blockchain primitives, which

Formation: Humanode's special grant-based development program

Formation: Humanode's special grant-based development program

Humanode is governed by Vortex, a decentralised organization which uses the voting power of equal human nodes to decide on crucial parameters. The execution body of Humanode DAO is called Formation.

Crypto-Biometrics, an Overview

Crypto-Biometrics, an Overview

HUMANODE is currently developing the world's first decentralized biometric identification layer that will not only be used on the HUMANODE platform, but which can be utilized in a variety of services, platforms and applications.

Liveness detection solutions, a comparison

Liveness detection solutions, a comparison

What is liveness detection? Biometrics as a technology for identifying a person based on the measurement and statistical analysis of its unique physical or behavioral characteristics is a phenomenon of high importance in modern society. It is a key to anchoring digital identity, heightened by the need for large-scale identity

Biometrics, an overview

Biometrics, an overview

At Humanode, we’re using biometrics to enable sybil resistance. This technology will ensure fair distribution of power and governance in distributed systems like blockchains.

Fath: A monetary system to mitigate currency devaluation and deflation

Fath: A monetary system to mitigate currency devaluation and deflation

Our vision is to create a stable and just financial system that relies on the existence of human life itself, one human = one node. And Fath will work as the monetary algorithm for it to happen.

Vortex, an overview

Vortex, an overview

The age-old fight to gain power and other resources is likely to remain part of the picture as long as we're dealing with humans. Time will tell if the distinct properties of decentralized networks, as opposed to more traditional forms of organization, are adequate to avoid a concentration tendency. Field
