NuCypher Launches Mainnet, Distributes $45M in Tokens to Nodes

2020-10-18 17:56

Following NuCypher’s mainnet launch, 222.5 million NU tokens have been distributed to node operators in proportion to the amount of ETH they have locked.

WorkLock Distribution & PoS Staking

Privacy-preserving blockchain network NuCypher has launched its highly anticipated mainnet. The mainnet will serve as the infrastructure that will power the network’s dApps.

NuCypher operates a proof of stake (PoS) blockchain where validator nodes are rewarded for their “threshold cryptography services” using NU tokens. Before the network launch, the team announced WorkLock, an Ethereum-locking event for those interested in becoming network validators.

Over 2,000 different nodes locked up more than 350,000 ETH in the WorkLock contract.

At the mainnet launch, a total of 222.5 million tokens have been distributed out of the current supply of 1 billion tokens. Nodes that participated in WorkLock began earning NU tokens in proportion to the amount of ETH, which they locked.

The newly distributed tokens (along with the previously locked ETH) will remain “stake-locked” for the next six months, as per the WorkLock contract conditions.

Stake locked means that WorkLock participants cannot access their ETH and NU holdings for the next six months. And all rewards that the nodes earn will be automatically restaked.

Building Privacy dApps With NuCypher

Using NuCypher’s proprietary proxy re-encryption technique, developers can build privacy-preserving applications on top of public blockchains by routing the smart contract data through the NuCypher network.

All public blockchain data is currently freely available, which is not ideal for applications, like banking or healthcare, that require sensitive data to be hidden.

The project is backed by prominent VC funds, including Y Combinator, Polychain Capital, Arrington XRP Capital, and Bitmain.

Neutro ICO

The Neutro Protocol solves the trilemma of scalability, security and decentralization, allows for anonymous transactions and eradicates the need for centralized oracles. Neutro users can create a decentralized version of almost any real-world market that exists now only in a centralized system that we all use currently.

Governance, Part 2: Plutocracy Is Still Bad

Coin holder voting, both for governance of technical features, and for more extensive use cases like deciding who runs validator nodes and who receives money from development bounty funds, is unfortunately continuing to be popular, and so it seems worthwhile for me to write another post explaining why I (and Vlad Zamfir and others) do not consider it wise for Ethereum (or really, any base-layer blockchain) to start adopting these kinds of mechanisms in a tightly coupled form in any significant way.

On Radical Markets

Recently I had the fortune to have received an advance copy of Eric Posner and Glen Weyl’s new book, Radical Markets, which could be best described as an interesting new way of looking at the subject that is sometimes called “political economy” - tackling the big questions of how markets and politics and society intersect.
