Where Does The Time Go?

Seriously? December Already? It feels like last week I was at HiveFest but I guess the calendar wouldn't lie to me. I've been working with a few different things still and once again most of my time has gone toward SPK Network. I guess we can start there.

SPK Network

Our testnet now has decentralized Proof of Access built in. Our install script took our instructions way down, and completely out of fumbling with transactions to register the new additions to the network. From this point we can test token generation, distribution, file storage and contract management. We also have storage only nodes being released around this time next week to get everybody into the network.

After this portion of the network is stable and we don't see many changes happening, we'll open up the SPK DEX for testing, then release the network at large after our UI is on par with the feature set.

DLUX

There has been quite of bit of movement in the XR industry. Both @markegiles and I have been revisiting some of the frameworks, and testing out new hardware and software. I've managed to import a Quest 3, and play with Aframe 1.5 which has mixed reality support. Expect to see something cool after Christmas :)

Not a whole lot to report on here, we've been smoothing our UI out for SPK network for the most part. One good thing to note is the Vote/Stabilizer/PowerUp bot I've built seems to be working pretty well at this point. Enough so that I've earned my first Power Up Month badge.

I've also set the @dlux-io account to vote with my auto-voter IF and only if it's native vote bot hasn't run in it's last period.

I'll be giving the bot some UI in the coming month and unleashing it so you can also turn HBD payouts into market liquidity. The algo I've come up with seems a little loose, but I take hbdstabilizer's last trade as the correct price and put in a sell HBD order at 99% of that price ($1.01).

Personal Goals

With this December Power Up Day I'm now ~491.054 HP away from my goal of reaching Orca. With my witness, curation, posts, and continuing Power-Up-Month additions I should reach Orca by the middle of the month. For the following year I'm going to dial my Power Up Day down to 1000 HP to get the top level badge. At this rate, if I make proper whale status with my current additions I'll be very sad; it would take 9 years, but if the price is stable for 9 years I'd do more than cry. So I'm just going to be thankful I've managed to make it to this level, with ~$1 votes, and a top 40 witness during the bear market.

Finally. I took my girlfriend to see her favorite artist and ate a few of my favorite foods in Brazil for a weekend trip. That's it from me for this month.

Keep an eye on @spknetwork and dlux.io for some more updates.
