Dear Hydranet,



The first month of 2024 flew by, progressing us further on our journey. While the LSSD (Lightning Simple Swap Daemon), also known as the Core DEX API, was released to a closed testnet group, the Web Wallet underwent several updates based on team feedback.

HDN Tokenomics Simulator
Twitter: https://x.com/TheHydranet/status/1742172180413046965?s=20

In the past weeks we have been working on a visual tool that will allow users to simulate a broad spectrum of HDN Tokenomics scenarios, both general and personalized.
The simulator is designed to enhance understanding of the dynamics and interactions among various components as outlined in the latest $HDN Tokenomics 1.5.
We're excited to present two distinctive features:

Network Simulation:
This advanced tool allows users to conduct small-scale experiments to test how specific conditions affect the Hydranet ecosystem. You can create hypothetical scenarios and analyze the potential impacts on different stakeholders within the network.

Personal Calculator:
The personal feature enables you to estimate and calculate your potential future #rewards from operating a Hydranet #Titan (Hub) or #Guardian (Watchtower) within the network.

Preview: https://youtu.be/-fLf3uax6yE

Your feedback is an invaluable asset to us and will be essential for further developing this tool, so please feel free to test the simulator thoroughly and make sure to provide your feedback!
Please note that both the Network Simulation and Personal #Calculator are still in development, and we anticipate releasing further updates in the future.

Check it out for yourself here: https://simulator.hydranet.ai

Hydranet - DAO Proposal Vote #26

Hydranet Improvement Proposal:
Changing our funding mechanisms regarding bonds

Proposal ID: 26
Proposed by: Hydranet Multi-sig
Date: January 1st, 2024 @ 10pm UTC

Summary:
This proposal addresses the future of fundraising within the Hydranet DAO, specifically focusing on the transition from selling bonds to a new mechanism involving the disbursement of HDN tokens to a multi-sig-controlled address for grants and funding operations.

Background and Current Situation:
1.1 The DAO currently raises funds by selling bonds to the community, excluding United States citizens.
1.2 This mechanism was inherited from HDX and its OHM fork, HDN made adaptations for our custom bonds.

Legal Implications and Risks:
2.1 Recent legal counsel has indicated that continuing with bond sales could classify our token as a security, subjecting us to stringent regulations.
2.2 Operating as a security token could limit our market reach and impose additional compliance burdens.

Proposed Alternative:
3.1 Instead of using bonds, the DAO will vote for the disbursement of 5 million HDN tokens at a time.
3.2 These tokens will be transferred to a multi-sig-controlled address.

Use of Funds:
4.1 The multi-sig-controlled address will use these tokens to grant funds for operational purposes.
4.2 This approach aims to maintain flexibility and avoid the regulatory complexities associated with security tokens.

Benefits of the Proposed Approach:
5.1 Avoids the risk of being classified as a security token. 5.2 Ensures greater control and flexibility in fund allocation. 5.3 Aligns with legal advice to safeguard the DAO's interests.

Action Items:
6.1 Review the proposal in detail.
6.2 Engage in discussions to understand the implications and benefits.
6.3 Cast your vote on the proposed transition.

Voting Period:
7.1 January 1st to January 5th, 2024 
Additional Information: This transition represents a strategic shift in our fundraising approach, aligning with legal advice and ensuring the long-term sustainability of the DAO.

Members are encouraged to consider the long-term implications of this decision on the DAO's operations and market presence.

Please support the updated version of the Hydranet DAO tokenomics.
Voting will last for 5 days. 
You can cast your vote here:

Hydranet - DEX API Alpha release (closed beta)


Twitter: https://x.com/TheHydranet/status/1740453137255715184?s=20

Although it has been quiet around the Hydranet CoreDEX lately, the team has been anything but idle:
We are proud to finally release the #LSSD to the very first batch of closed beta testers! 🐍🎩

The LSSD (Lightning Simple Swap Daemon) encapsulates the complete offchain atomic swap logic in a lightweight and headless way to interact with our orderbook and execute swaps.
Using the LSSD, one can build bots or even their own wallet to connect to our network. It offers a GRPC / Protobuf-based #API that allows renting inbound channel liquidity, listing and subscribing to orders,
and placing market and limit orders on the Hydranet #DEX. To execute the swaps, the LSSD connects to a #Bitcoin #Lightning LND node and a Connext Vector Node and utilizes their wallet implementations.

We have packaged and published our LSSD, LND and Vector in a turn-key docker-compose setup, that makes setting it up an easy task.
This is already past testnet stage and selected users will now receive access to API keys for Mainnet. Once stabilized it will be released to the general public!

One third party will be involved right from the beginning, and one additional market maker service will also evaluate once LSSD reaches beta stage.

Instructions are public on Github (API Keys required):

Hydranet Foundation Update

Dear Hydranet Community,
We are thrilled to share some exciting developments regarding the Hydranet ecosystem.
The Hydranet Foundation, a critical milestone in our journey, has been officially established in the Cayman Islands under the name Hydranet Off-Chain LTC.
This legal entity will serve as a protective shield for the Hydranet DAO, reinforcing our commitment to transparency, trust, and the future of our community.

One of the key highlights of this foundation is the implementation of multi-signature wallets. We have chosen to disclose the identities behind these multi-sigs to the foundation,
emphasizing our dedication to community trust. These representatives will act on behalf of the Hydranet DAO, ensuring that the best interests of our community are at the forefront of our decision-making processes.

This monumental step forward will enable us to establish ourselves as a legitimate player in the ever-evolving cryptocurrency landscape.
We are eager to continue pushing the boundaries of our community and delivering cutting-edge products to the crypto sphere.
