Our website, mathnodes.com was down briefly due to an unjustified legal claim by CEO of @norselabs and @SentinelP2P @alexlitreev sent a legal threat to our hosting provider due to the purchase and subsequent use of the domain dvpn.app . His claim was that it is trademarked and presents a scam image of his poorly named app DVPN. This is legally and morally unjustified for numerous reasons: 1. "DVPN" is not trademarked in any jurisdiction in the world and never will be. Its like trying to trademark "VPN". His reference is to a pending trademark application for "$DVPN" which we are filing an appeal of because it is commom use for financial applications by individuals like here on X and Cash App and various others. We expect his pending trademark to be rejected. 2. He quotes the redirect of dvpn.app of posing a "scamy" link for is unimaginative app DVPN. We laugh, because Meile is the oldest active app on Sentinel. 3. He never reach out to us personally and instead tried to sideline our dvpn.app domain through our VPS provider. We have worked with Aleksandr going on 6 years now and did not receive a single message about the matter at hand. Is this the type of person you want to associate with? We think not.

Meile dVPN, the oldest app in active development on Sentinel, has announced that it will not be following the project to Solana and will instead work with other community members to keep the current L1 blockchain alive.
🧵 1/x Keep Sentinel Sovereign: A Manifesto Sentinel and its dedicated community have been our home for the better part of a decade, and we will always remain grateful for what the team has built for the world and amazed by their commitment to their mission. Contributing to this ecosystem has provided us and countless other community members with the opportunity to learn new skills, create our own products, sell our services, and build businesses. Nearly two million people around the world have used a Sentinel-powered dVPN to protect themselves online and circumvent internet censorship.

Leaked documents suggest China's VPN crackdown has been more effective than many previously believed. The reason is structural. Centralized VPN providers are ultimately companies with infrastructure that can be pressured, regulated, or restricted. Yet we've recently demonstrated how an individual used $ZEC and a Sentinel powered decentralized VPN to access the open internet despite these barriers. The Sentinel Network takes a different approach, providing the infrastructure for independently developed dVPN applications powered by independent peer-to-peer nodes.

AtomOne v4 is built on three distinct pillars — a full upgrade to Cosmos SDK v0.50 and IBC-go v10, the introduction of Governors as a governance-specific delegation mechanism decoupled from staking, and a set of economic controls aligned with the AtomOne Constitution.

The work on direct hourly or gigabyte node sessions (previously subscriptions) is complete. The MacOS build is already on our website and code will be merged into the Windows and Linux branches in the coming days. This was our biggest use case so we are eager to role it out to everyone. It took a little planning as we wanted to make use of the work on our SDK and also didn't want to make all users upgrade Meile again. MacOS users can get it @ meile.app

Feeling like a grandpa in this game: Started on Bitcointalk when Crypto Twitter was not even a thing in 2017: bitcointalk.org/index.php?to… MVP on Ethereum Testnet straight after the start of the project: nitter.gq/SentinelP2P/status/979… Conducted Utility Airdrop for people to experience dVPN and incentivized them, gaining 1M+ downloads for Sentinel VPN on Google Play in 2018: medium.com/sentinel/sentinel… Added Tor-compatible node-hosting option in 2018: nitter.gq/SentinelP2P/status/104… Added support for dVPN payments using $ETH and $BNB when they were $607 and $17 respectively in 2018: nitter.gq/SentinelP2P/status/100… Blockchain-based Relay network Proof of Concept in 2019: nitter.gq/SentinelP2P/status/112… Participated in Binance DEX Testnet in mid 2019: nitter.gq/SentinelP2P/status/110… Built PoC of Sentrix - dChat on top of Matrix servers and Sentinel's bandwidth consumption protocol in early 2019: nitter.gq/SentinelP2P/status/110… Achieved 1st place in Phase 1A of Game of Zones in 2020, showing excellent competence in running Cosmos-based chains in 2020: nitter.gq/jackzampolin/status/12… The list can go on, but one thing is clear for us: All the activity that happened over the past 8 years was not just buried - it evolved into something strong, self-evolving and surprisingly resistant to events like $LUNA collapse or overall crypto market cycles. And all of that has happened mostly because of the nature of the project - "a public good" - a thing that always gives out utility first and gets contributions back. Demand for privacy is growing rapidly and will continue to do so, and our role is not just to benefit from it but to be responsible for the private layer of the next decade of internet. "Job's not finished" $P2P

Sentinel is the only decentralized privacy project that has fixed UX. Sentinel has the only decentralized dApps that have Web 2 users who are unaware that the application they are using is decentralized. Checkout play.google.com/store/apps/d… play.google.com/store/apps/d…
Crypto privacy has one problem - UX. Fix that and the world is yours.

The AtomOne Constitution is a living document. A new proposal aims to update it to align with recent proposals for Dynamic Deposit, Dynamic Quorum and Nakamoto Bonus, while fixing text inconsistencies and clarifying DAO roles. Let's get your feedback: common.xyz/atomone/discussio…

Pro tip: run a @SentinelP2P dVPN node 🤫
Why is there a heavy increase in daily active users on Sentinel? Is it because Sentinel has the first dVPN protocol to onboard a centralized VPN application and testing has already begun with real users? Maybe? If it is true, then Sentinel stats are soon about to explode

Sentinel Shield 2.0 is coming ✔️ De-Googled & 100% open-source ✔️ No proprietary dependencies ✔️ Launching on F-Droid & standalone APK App stores are the most popular way to reach people. But the ability to distribute on our own terms, free from removal, is essential for dVPN
