In this video I try to explain some of the concepts in the Usefull Proof of Work research paper Ofelimos.

Heads up I got the ranking blocks wrong in the start of the video and correct myself towards the end of the video.

I made another video for the day something I have been thinking about a while – Direct representation (DREP)

I made a short video looking at the Mithril research apper and then on how to implement a Mithril-signer as an SPO.

As you may know, ADA North Pool has an ongoing promo where we give World Mobile Token rewards to delegators of the pool since valentines 2022.

We have today refilled the Vending Machine pool balance to make sure to keep the promo going further. We are still huge fans of the project and we have an NBX earth node you can find us on twitter: https://twitter.com/nbxearthnode

Recently I have made some more written content type of guides and I have made a guide on installing Proxmox for virtualization and tuning it as well. My second guide is on how to run a cardano-node relay on a virtual machine in Proxmox. See the following two guides:

World Mobile let’s go part 3 was made to show some of the amazing achivements and the community around World Mobile. We here at Ada North Pool and the exchange nbx.com are fans of the project and are planning to do a world mobile node to support the project.

A follow up on my previous article on SSH for the Earth Node operators group I have made a guide for server hardening, tuning and grafana monitoring of server metrics you can find here. (This guide can be used for other blockchain nodes as well such as Cardano).

I made a small guide on SSH login with a bonus of a SSH attack panel in Grafana tunneled through SSH. This was created to help support the great Earth Node Operators group.

I take a look at Radical markets and how it presents the idea of Quadratic Voting as well as the Book of Why investigating how to understand causal inference and relate them to the catalyst treasury project.
