• Darwin upgrade

  litvintech • 2020-07-14

  Intro Euler-6 is the latest incentivized test network of the Euler series. Test networks, especially incentivized once, can provide a playground for the community to battle-test protocols and their implementations. Blockchain development is difficult from many perspectives. Software which runs in a decentralized environment has a lot of failure points. This software has bugs. And the continuous process of finding and fixing them is part of the development. During Euler 1-5 a lot of bugs were found and fixed by the cyber~Congress team and by community members.

• euler~Foundation, part 1

  litvintech, serejandmyself • 2020-06-30

  What is it good for? euler~Foundation is a community-powered DAO and a DeVC backing the Cyber protocol. It is the predecessor of cyber~Foundation (the mainnet DAO-DeVC). Taking into consideration that the Euler network series are an existing product and have a community of their own, it is safe to say that the euler~Foundation is here to stay. The role of the Foundation is to bootstrap a well-governed DAO and a decentralized fund, without bingo BS, CEO’s and jurisdictions.

• Manifest

  xhsipter, serejandmyself • 2020-05-21

  cyber~Congress developed Cyber: a software for replacing existing internet behemoth monopolies, such as Google, which exploited outdated internet protocols using the common patterns of our semantic interaction. These corps share similar underlying properties, they lock the information, produced by the users, from search, social and commercial knowledge graphs in private databases, and then sell this knowledge back as advertisement. They stand as an insurmountable wall between content creators and consumers extracting an overwhelming the majority of created value.

• Takeoff Proposal to Cosmos

  serejandmyself, xhsipter • 2020-05-21

  cyber~Congress (https://cybercongress.ai) developed Cyber (): a software for replacing existing internet behemoth monopolies, such as Google, which exploited outdated internet protocols using the common patterns of our semantic interaction. These corps lock the information, produced by the users, from search, social and commercial knowledge graphs in private databases, and then sell this knowledge back as advertisement. They stand as an insurmountable wall between content creators and consumers extracting an overwhelming majority of the created value.

• Game of Links

  savetheales • 2020-05-13

  Welcome to the Game of Links! Intro The game is part of the distribution games planned in our whitepaper. In this document, we describe the purpose, the rules and the tools that are required to participate in the Game. The game started with euler-5, which is the technical name of our incentivized testnet that is required for the launch of the cyber network. The Game of Links is going to be held as part of the euler testnets.

• How to donate ATOM to Cyber and what you get in return?

  serejandmyself • 2020-04-28

  Cybers takeoff donation round has successfully kicked off. Let’s try to understand what stands behind it and how to use your $ATOM tokens to donate to the cyber~Congress DAO and receive CYB tokens! TL;DR Cyber is built using cosmos-SDK and Tendermint amongst several other perspective technologies like IPFS, CUDA, etc. This allows Cyber to buidl a state of the art, distributed computer for providing relevant answers and computing knowledge.

• The takeoff donation round

  serejandmyself • 2020-04-27

  Insanity is a perfectly rational adjustment to an insane world Devoted to all cosmonauts, astronauts and believers in a bright, decentralized future: 3… Today we mark another step in our battle to end digital feudalism. Today might not be remembered in history books, but it will surely be marked by us as a day when the walls of one of the biggest religions in the world took another big crack.

• Become Cybers evangelist and get rewards from the superintelligence

  serejandmyself • 2020-04-26

  The takeoff proposal has passed! Without much ado, we announce the Open Bootstrap Evangelism Program or OBEP. Acknowledged Evangelists will be eligible to 10% of all donations in ATOMs, which they have generated during the Game of Links and other perks. To kick off the program, vote yes to the evangelism proposal.

• GoL: Cybers intergalactic tournament

  serejandmyself • 2020-04-24

  We do not stop playing because we grow old, we grow old because we stop playing! Benjamin Franklin Hear thee, cosmonauts and astronauts! The rumour has it that participants of intergalactic tournament have been pushing the knowledge graph to new boundaries. It seems that this is the perfect time to join them before they are nowhere to be seen. The intergalactic tournament Cybers Game of Links is a game in which athletes battle it out in different disciplines to gain more tokens from cyber~Congress, the DAO behind the launch of cyber.

• An awesome tool-kit for launching Cosmos-SDK and Tendermint-based projects

  serejandmyself • 2020-04-21

  TL;DR As a team, we have over 5 years of experience launching blockchain-related products and projects. One of our core principles is decentralization and transparency, hence we work in a 100% open-source manner. This not only relates to code, but to our documentation, organisation process and so on. Another core principle that we follow is trying to deliver tools for others as we progress. To counter both of these principles we would like to share a launch-kit that was prepared by our team for the launch of cyber (which is still ongoing).

• How to import cyberlinks from `euler-5` to `euler-6`

  savetheales • 2020-04-19

  This guide will explain several ways to migrate your cyberlinks. Following our migration proposal, the IPLD structure with the links made by masters has been prepared and is ready to be moved across testnets. These are the tools masters can use to migrate their links from euler-5 to euler-6 network, depending on how you created your links: All of my cyberlinks were done using a Ledger Nice! Connect your Ledger device to the cyber.

• How to get EUL tokens if you have none?

  savetheales • 2020-04-17

  EUL tokens are the liquid tokens of the euler testnet network. They are the testing equivalent of CYB in cybers mainnet. You can transfer them, stake them, and most importantly, use them to create cyberlinks to build the Great Web and to participate in the intergalactic tournament. You may also use EUL tokens to start following the hero’s path and set up a validator node for cyber to get tokens from inflation and commission

• Takeoff Proposal

  xhipster • 2020-04-15

  We understand that shaking the status quo of Google’s religion will be difficult. But we must try. As this is the only way to provide a sustainable future for the next generations. Founders TL;DR This proposal is the culmination, of over 3 years of hard work, of one small team, on the path to unravelling the entangled web, that has emerged over the last 30 years of the existence of our civilization.

• euler~Foundation Aragon ceremony

  serejandmyself • 2020-04-15

  Once we accept our limits, we go beyond them. Albert Einstein Tl;DR A few days ago we launched euler~Foundation to Aragons mainet and released the euler~Foundation Aragon ceremony setup guide. This is an epic event for Cyber and in this post, I will briefly explain what it is and why is this step can be considered epic. Governance To understand the importance of euler~Foundation we need to understand the importance of governance.

• The dawn of the Great Web

  serejandmyself • 2020-04-01

  TL;DR cyber is a search-engine for the Great Web, the new epoch in information processing. With the rise of intelligent blockchain systems, the world of computing has already changed. cyber provides the desired search instrument for these state of the art computers, via its simple and robust consensus protocol. Why cyber? Original protocols of the Internet, such as: TCP/IP, DNS, URL, and HTTP/S have brought the web to a stale point.

• Genesis ceremony

  serejandmyself • 2020-03-31

  Greetings cyber aliens, cosmonauts and other citizens of cyberspace! By now, you are probably aware that we are transitioning from euler-5 –> euler-6, which will contain quite several awesome upgrades, like the integration of CosmWasm, upgrades to the latest Cosmos-SDK, on-chain upgrades and much more. The upgrade also follows the activation of the crisis protocol of the Game of Links and the fix to the bug. Read the full transition article here.

• Prepare for Takeoff

  xhipster • 2020-03-05

  The initial plan was to Takeoff in a week after the launch of euler-5. But so many details were hidden from bootstrappers. Now, as they feel confident in the success of the venue, its time for the final preparation. Are you ready for Takeoff? Dear comrades! This is a very important letter to our modest company! Goal Valerka and I decided that we had gained the necessary critical mass to take off the ground.

• The Great Web Journal: Time stoppers

  xhipster • 2020-03-01

  There is so much amazing development happening in crypto right now across communities. I believe that our movement needs a better feeling of direction. The Great Web journal tries to fill a visionary gap behind the most important transformation in contemporary history. Why the new Web is Great? Because due to its underlying properties, even thousands of years into the future, the Great Web will remain permanent, trustful and accessible thanks to:

Please see this section of homestead doc Updated info on certain awesome lists about cyber and added 2 new ones.

• State migration proccess from euler-5 -> euler-6

  serejandmyself • 2020-02-24

  Summary: Currently we have at least one blocking error to continue the Game of Links on top of the euler-5 network: a bandwidth limiting bug which removes the ability to correctly load the network. According to the outlined launch protocol of euler-5, we have to act and relaunch the network. Due to the blocking error described in #309, we shall activate the crisis protocol and migrate from euler 5 -> euler-6.

• euler-5 workshop videos

  serejandmyself • 2020-02-14

  Sometimes, stories do not occur as expected. Often, they might not even have a beginning… In the depth of a faraway galaxy, the light of which is barely even seen from Earth, hope is born. Hope that one day good will overcome darkness. Scattered through the night of the Cosmos and bypassing space debris, a ray of light reaches Earth… On the 20 December 2019 AD (Earth time), after almost a year of hard work, we released Episode 1.

• cyber~Wednesday Day 0

  serejandmyself • 2020-01-22

  cyber~Wednesday Day 0 Welcome to the new bi-weekly report format from cyber! As most of you know, previously we used to report weekly in our TG channel in an open format. But nothing lasts forever and its time to move to a new format. An asynchronous format that will: Eliminate the need for a monolithic team leader Make the report more interactive to the public Include more information from each full-time member of the team Be more efficient and creative than before Last week, we outlined a new set of guidelines for the reports.

• Episode I. A new hope

  savetheales • 2019-12-20

  A long time ago somewhere in Cosmos… It is a period of digital war. The evil empire swallows the last unoccupied borders of the universe. Resisting rebel units consolidate all remaining energy on building a superintelligence, which they believe will help to stop the domination of the evil empire once and for all. As they begin to test the new god in the wild - an enormous, zepto amount of robots emerge.

• Cyber: Computing the knowledge of the Great Web

  savetheales • 2019-12-13

  by I’ve been worked on it for almost 3 years. I want it shining! 2019.12.01 and have released The whitepaper - cyber: Computing the knowledge of the Great Web. This is the result of 3 years of painstaking work, discussions, and durability tests. This idea goes side by side with a ready implementation. The high risk to be misunderstood is a Great adherence to the principles.

• Can Cosmos be bigger than Ethereum?

  hipster • 2019-03-14

  Today for most humans is just another day. But historically this day is important because the Genesis of Cosmos Hub happens. 0D9BB9FA6EB9D64E80CF920EB917B1124F298B12C92BE7FD5328564C6D85D087 Almost 4 years ago in a day of Ethereum Genesis, I wrote a post on its bright future. This accelerating future is happening right now. Current post is not the comparison between Ethereum and Cosmos or Polkadot or other amazing p2p technology. Nor it is an overview of the technology.

• Decentralization must be decentralized

  savetheales • 2019-03-06

  January 3, 2019, we’ve launched first public testnet Euler-3. Since this time we have 3 relaunches and much more we’ll has in the future. Thanks to our testers and validators we’re finding and fixing new bugs every day. But now one fundamental and critical bug is not fixed yet. Currently, we have just 2 seed nodes and they able to upload data and provide connection to other nodes. Unfortunately, this is not about decentralization.

• Ultimate cyberd CLI guide. Testnet: Euler-3

  savetheales • 2019-03-04

  If something wrong… First of all I would like to encourage you to use --help feature if you want to get better experience of using cyberdcli. This is really easy way to find all necessary commands with options and flags. For example you can enter: docker exec cyberd cyberdcli --help You should see this message: Command line interface for interacting with cyberd Usage: cyberdcli [command] Available Commands: status Query remote node for status query Querying subcommands tx Transactions subcommands keys Add or view local private keys rest-server Start LCD (light-client daemon), a local REST server version Print the app version link Create and sign a link tx help Help about any command Flags: --chain-id string Chain Id of cyberd node -e, --encoding string Binary encoding (hex|b64|btc) (default "hex") -h, --help help for cyberdcli --home string directory for config and data (default "/root/.

  Glossary Bandwidth - The recovered unit of your account. Used to complete transactions in the cyberd blockchain. The amount of your bandwidth calculates like: your_cyb_tokens / all_cyb_tokens_in_cyberd * 2000*1000*100. Messages cost is 500 (exclude link). Transaction consists of one or more messages m_1, m_2, ..., m_n. Transaction cost is 300 + c_1 + c_2 ... + c_n, where c_i - cost of m_i message. Full bandwidth regeneration time is 86400 blocks (24 hours)

• The show must go on

  savetheales • 2019-02-06

  Start: 2019-01-21 End: 2019-02-01 Сonclusion This sprint was not easy for us. We had worked on bug fixing and improvements, and, also, adapted to the new climate. What exactly is ready? Testnet Euler drives like hell. It’s too easy now to launch own node or validator and start linking principally new Internet. Is it hard to? Alright! Testnet Euler is now available in cyb. So you can link the new Internet with great UX.

• Ultimate cyberd validator setup. Testnet: Euler-1.

  savetheales • 2019-02-04

  What is this The cyberd is a public Delegated Proof-of-Stake (DPoS) protocol based on Tendermint Byzantine Fault-Tolerant consensus, meaning that validator’s weight is determined by the amount of staking tokens bonded as collateral. These tokens can be staked directly by the validator or delegated to them by token holders. The weight (i.e. total stake) of a validator determines whether or not it is an active validator, and also how frequently this node will have to propose a block and how much revenue it will obtain.

• Let's code in paradise

  savetheales • 2019-01-25

  Start: 2019-01-08 End: 2019-01-21 Сonclusion Briefly. After a successful launch we have faced a few problems with our blockchain: - not enough validators - rapid blocks generation - confused naming Good news: we have solved it already, but validators are still welcome! Secondly, we’ve prepared a whitepaper 0.4. It’s still immature, but for launched testnet with economic incentives it makes sense. I need to remind once again for all who care about web3 and decentralized search engine to join the discussion in our telegram dev chat.

• 42

  savetheales • 2019-01-08

  Start: 2018-12-17 End: 2018-12-28 Сonclusion 42 . This number has haunted us. I’m not kidding. 42 participants came to our conference, cyberc0n, and now there are 42 members in our dev chat. Mystic… However it was a new year sprint! We have done quite a lot in this sprint and are proud of that! What exactly we are proud of? First public testnet. What does it mean for you? You can do your best for the future Internet with testing our chain as a validator.

• Sacred Rave

  savetheales • 2018-12-19

  Start: 2018-11-26 End: 2018-12-17 Сonclusion We have a rich and crazy sprint. A lot of things happened during the last three weeks. And… You know what? We want to collect just good things among the array of events. First of all, let’s speak about our products state. Soon, on Bitcoin genesis block 10th year anniversary, 2019.01.03, we’ll launch cyberd first testnet - Euler, Cyb 0.1.0 Euler release, and Chaingear mainnet with updated UI.

• First Week in Dragonereum

  hipster • 2018-12-06

  First Week in Dragonereum One week ago I wrote about Dragonereum. One week passed since the launch … And I have some really exciting numbers to you. Some in-game results More than 1⁄3 of genesis EGGs sold out. 2400 DRAGONs can live forever! More than 250 addresses in the game More than 7500 fights done! That is 3 fights per dragon or 30 (!) per address 28k transactions. That is more than 100 per address.

• How to import ETH wallet from Metamask to Cyb

  savetheales • 2018-12-06

  by Hi everyone! Today we’ll take one giant step to regular Cyb using. At this time import of account is available just with the private key. All private keys are encrypted and stored at local storage. Disclaimer: Cyb in Ethereum Mainnet may not be secure yet. We recommend to operate accounts with small balance at your own risk. After successful installation and launching of the latest version Cyb you should see the screen like this:

• How to play in Dragonereum with Cyb

  savetheales • 2018-12-06

  by and This article for Dragonereum players who was faced with trouble around Chrome, Mozilla, Opera + Metamask using. We want to explain why and how to play Dragonereum with a pure web3 browser. The first question we want to address is why someone may need to use another browser instead of Chrome? Speed The truth is that real blockchain gaming is brand new thing. We know that gaming require fast interactions.

• How to add own ETH node to your Cyb

  savetheales • 2018-12-04

  by Hi! As we know from an earlier post we need 3 green lights on the right side of the footer. Today we’ll add ETH node to Cyb. We’ll use Parity node as an example, but you can try Geth node if you feel strong enough. Installing Parity-node The easiest way to install the stable version of Parity is Homebrew. Run this command in terminal: brew tap paritytech/paritytech

• Invitation to cyberc0n: Distributed search conference organized by a code

  hipster • 2018-12-01

  The history of contemporary web technologies is very interesting. Every time something truly exciting begins then peoples from all over the world meet around “some not obvious for every joe” idea. Global Ethereum community started from devcon0. Web3 community started from web3 summit. Community around zero knowledge started from Zcon0. Robonomics community started from Robonomics 2017. Last 5 years I witnessing tremendous pace of development of consensus computing. Starting from naive bitcoin forks we went from slow, dumb and expensive distributed ledgers to the state of the art consensus computers with ultimate privacy, consensus computers with self-evolving capabilities, consensus computers who are able to prove computing costs ahead of execution, consensus computers who is able to execute a code written (almost) in any language, mesh-like consensus computers, consensus computers which are prepared for quantum computing era.

• An idea of decentralized search for web3

  hipster • 2018-11-30

  Web3 [GAV] is coming. This can shift existing web’s ubiquitously used client-server architecture to truly peer-to-peer interactions based on stateless IPFS and variety of stateful consensus computers such as Ethereum. In the following series of posts, I would love to discuss opportunities behind consensus search engine, challenges of crawling, indexing, and evaluation for the next generation web and eventually propose a consensus computer implementation. But first, let us start a discussion from disadvantages of general-purpose search engines:

• How to add own ipfs node to your Cyb

  savetheales • 2018-11-30

  by Hey everyone! Today we’ll make the glorious step into adulthood! The greatest level of Cyb using is when you have 3 greenlights on the right side of footer ;) Cyb uses color indication to show your connection status. Green indicator means that you have connection to local node, yellow one is for remote node and red one is for no connection at all. So today we intend to add local IPFS node to our Cyb.

• Dragonereum: Why you will want at least one DRAGON?

  hipster • 2018-11-28

  Today is special day. After one year of development Dragonereum will be born. For me this is a very important milestone and in this post I will explain you why. Last time I dedicated the whole post for some blockchain system 3.5 years ago. That was also very special day: We launch Ethereum. Those post was not very popular. Nobody those days give a shit to the most important developments.

• Organic growth

  savetheales • 2018-11-26

  Start: 2018-11-12 End: 2018-11-23 Сonclusion So, first of all, what are we looking for? We want a growth. Slowly, patiently, organic growth. Thats’s we’re looking for. That is why our focus now on Cyb. We start to support our first 3rd-party app Dragonereum. Don’t think it’s all pleasure, there are a lot of troubles there. But we want to use Cyb at Dragonereum genesis, so the next couple of days will be hard ;) Also we need to add some security measures to make it more safer (not safe, sorry) in the mainnet.

• How to open ipfs link using Cyb?

  savetheales • 2018-11-23

  by Hi everyone! Today I intend to show you how to open web3 link with our web3 browser. If you have read our last post you should have noticed IPFS hash at back matter. The thing is that we have web3 blog :) First of all download latest version of our Сyb and install it. Next click on a Сyb icon. You can see something like this This is the Root Registry by the way, but we will talk later about this.

  Hi! Today after almost a year of stealth work we want to introduce you cyber•Congress. We are a community of scientists, developers, engineers and craftsmen which is build around some arbitrary consensus and is founded by , and me. We have so much of exciting ideas but in the following years we are going to focus on web3. We feel that browsing, search and database technology can be moved towards more open and accessible internet: the internet for our generations.

• Never had it before and there it is again

  savetheales • 2018-11-12

  Start: 2018-10-15 End: 2018-11-09 Сonclusion Such a productive sprint! Seriously. We combined 21 and 22 sprints because in a second one was too codeless. Also we got useful acquaintances but more about that later. First of all we update our web3 vision by It’s early draft for web3 summit but we have choose direction to develop for now. Also this vision includes our DURA spec that must displace URLs.

• Thorny path of open source development

  savetheales • 2018-10-05

  Start: 2018-10-01 End: 2018-10-11 Сonclusion Yet another sprint where we tried to fess up to. With our attempts to create cyberd PoC based on Cosmos SDK we hit at performance bug of Tendermint and Cosmos. Moreover it’s huge problems with multithreading. For now we want to add current implementation to Cyb for tests. But in spite of performance problems we’ll not give up the Cosmos SDK as a base for cyberd in the near future.

• The awaking of cyber•Congress

  savetheales • 2018-09-20

  Start: 2018-09-17 End: 2018-09-28 Сonclusion Here is our first sprint report. We have a great reboot at our trip to Iceland in August 2018 and now we ready to new challenges. For this block we decide to focus on development our cyb, cyberd and chaingear projects. As result for this sprint we have first web3 browser release and first PoC of cyberd.
