Tierion Network Update — December 29th

We hope everyone is enjoying the holidays. We’re grateful for the support we received from the community this past year.

Additional Registered Nodes

Node registration will open on January 5th at 2:00pm PT (22:00 UTC). An additional one thousand nodes will be able to register.

The registration process is simple. Node operators should upgrade to version 1.3.4. Upgrading takes a few seconds. Nodes will automatically attempt to register when upgraded.

IMPORTANT: Version 1.3.4 of the Chainpoint Node software will be released moments before registration opens. Nodes must upgrade to be eligible for rewards.

Changes Coming

Our team is working on substantial updates to the Chainpoint software. Some goals include:

• Nodes can join the network at any time.
• Changes to the audit/reward systems.
• Node health data will be securely communicated to each node.

This update is still a ways off from being released. We felt it was important to make those of you building tools to manage and monitor Chainpoint nodes aware that changes are coming.
