Thank you very much to everyone who has participated in the testnet so far! We hope that we can scale to 100 nodes in the coming weeks so that there can be proper stress tests and throughput analysis.

Devs have ensured that process to add a VPN exit node is extremely easy. It takes less than a minute and only two commands to do so.

Below are the steps involved in running a Sentinel dVPN Node.

    Docker Installation
    Pull the Sentinel dVPN docker image
    Node Configuration

Start running the node and make $SENT!

Below are the instructions on installing docker.
Installing a stable version of docker in Ubuntu or other Debian based releases

sudo apt-get install docker
Installing the latest version of docker in Ubuntu or Debian based releases

sudo apt install -y curl

curl -fsSL get.docker.com -o /tmp/get-docker.sh

I'm looking how far it will achieve the goal of being in the top 100 cryptocurrencies. Good luck to the team!

Any estimations when Windows version of the node will be available, or that one is going to be 1.0 release only.

the team github is amazing they are fast with the deliverie of code and the idea is amazing , long term i see sentinel eating the whole vpn market

Sentinel VPN MVP Prototype Accepting Testers

Thank you for your support.

Users can test out the VPN functionality by connecting to existing nodes or host nodes of their own.

Currently only Linux users can host nodes and also through the console. Soon there will be interface and applications built for users to host nodes on multiple OS.

Exit node testers will have to install docker, pull the docker image, configure the node, and run the program.

Soon Sentinel marketing will begin. Till now the devs have worked silently and diligently. New offices have been occupied, hiring is still ongoing. When marketing begins we expect to see tremendous increase in market participants and users.

Sentinel ERC20 Test – SENT TEST
The upcoming release of the Sentinel MVP allows for users to make use of the first implementation of OpenVPN in ReactNative in order to connect to community hosted exit nodes as well as setup their own node and monetize on bandwidth. The application runs directly from the user wallet.

This MVP will first be launched on the Sentinel Test Net which will be another identical ERC20 chain with the same smart contracts as the original SENT chain.
This Test Net will provide a safe and secure platform to test the client throughput as well as transaction related smart contract security.

If you wish to receive the test tokens and help test the network please visit the telegram.
More instructions will follow soon.
Branding and marketing initiation yet to come.

i like all behind it in this project,hoping that more update,this will bring int huge success

Currently the MVP of the VPN is undergoing closed testing.

Modifications Planned for MVP VPN on 3/7/18

1) Charging minimum session fee to combat spam (e.g 100 Sents)
2) Automatic billing every xx # of GB preset by user
3) Documentation to allow for users to host nodes

Next two weeks: New UI Implementation

Users can host nodes at their own risk, openvpn is only 1 hop. May take few weeks or more to build strong relay network
but we can offer one with the best hop/relay customization settings that anyone has seen out there.

Documentation will be released on how to host nodes. Governance will come soon, for now one can utilize one of the first smart-contract based bandwidth resource monitoring and payment gateway technology.

Current UI is bare skeleton meant for testing.

Here is a glimpse of the new UI design that will be implemented in coming weeks:

The current UI is a bare production UI. MVP will be released soon and marketing will begin. Tendermint based utility chain production is beginning from today, watch out for new branches on the Github.

Sentinel Chain Token (SENC) Pricing Model

This article explains how the Hard Cap of USD14.4million for pre-sale/public is calculated for SENC tokens. It is calculated as such to prevent the volatility of ETH price from affecting the SENC token price on the day of the crowdsale, at the same time ensuring that the pre-sale bonus of 25% is maintained for the pre-sale buyers who invested in Q4 of 2017.

To achieve this, a total of 100million SENC tokens were sold during pre-sale at the price of US$0.064 per SENC based on the pegged rate of 1 ETH to US$1000. With that, we managed to raise a total amount of US$6.4million.

Hello Everyone

Thank you for your patience. In the past few weeks the dev team has made a lot of progress

Social Side:

Soon an abstract whitepaper will be released discussing the roadmap.
Marketing will begin with in depth technical information and other forms of collateral.
Bounty program will begin.
Website upgrade and activation of social media channels
Coinmarketcap listing

VPN:
There is significant progress in the github if you one pays attention. The MVP is nearly finished, now there are modifications being made to allow for multiple user gateways.
https://github.com/sentinel-official/sentinel/commits/master/vpn-node-docker
Sentinel has the first ERC20 Smart Contract Based Bandwidth resource identification and monitoring system (safe and secure).
Currently this system depends on bandwidth data logs from OpenVPN session history and soon there will be development on a unique Proof-Of-Bandwidth algorithm.


Utility Chain:
Team will be attempting to create a fully functional ‘utility chain’ on the tendermint platform that will successfully utilize ethermint to allow for the ERC20 smart contracts to be operable with the tendermint codebase.
https://forum.cosmos.network/t/list-of-projects-in-cosmos-tendermint-ecosystem/243/4
Soon a tendermint testnet will be released. Devs will provide full documentation on bugs that have been found, fixes and guides (w/ using Ethermint)

There has been no need for marketing or awareness. Soon enough the process will start once the community can properly evaluate how tangible the dev promises and releases are. Have smart contract dev review the code quality, we will be a top 100 coin within a few months.

maybe i'm really waiting for the next ann about your project, and the concept of decentralized VPN is a good idea and will be of interest to many internet users, they will be very excited about using this service, but this ann is not enough to explain details about the project you build, you need whitepaper

if you need solid partner about intelligent data processing, you can see it at WWW.DANEEL.IO

Do you have a bounty?

Sentinel Chain will be yours again!!!

InfoCorp announces Strategic Cooperation with Crowdo for Sentinel Chain

To Bridge the Unbanked to a Global Community of Investors

Singapore — 15 February 2018 — InfoCorp Technologies the company behind Sentinel Chain, a blockchain-based financial inclusion services marketplace — is proud to announce a strategic partnership and cooperation with Crowdo, a crowdfunding and peer-to-peer (P2P) lending platform in the ASEAN region.

Crowdo is the first lending platform that is fully licensed by the Monetary Authority of Singapore (MAS), the Financial Services Authority of Indonesia (OJK) and the Securities Commission Malaysia. Sentinel Chain will be the first B2B blockchain-based marketplace to accept the use of livestock as collateral.

Through this partnership, the Crowdo lending platform will integrate with Sentinel Chain and open new and emerging markets for Crowdo’s network of financial service providers. Due to factors such as high cost, scalability and risk, entry into such underbanked markets are usually challenging for offshore investors. At the same time, the collaboration with Crowdo will allow the ASEAN rural farmers to gain greater access to a wider network and community of qualified lenders who will be providing them with competitive interest rates for their loans.
