✏️ Editor's Note

Rejoice! Decentralization of the network was a success! A big congratulations to the ICON Project, P-Reps and the ICONist community. The journey towards ICONSENSUS has just begun and we're excited to be a part of it.  

DECENTRALIZED ICON IS NOW "BLOCKCHAIN-COMPLETE"

by Robin J. Wolf
You can now monitor P-Reps' productivity rates on the ICON Tracker. Make sure that your chosen P-Reps are keeping up! A reminder that the 6% burn penalty only kicks in on November 29th, so you still have time to reshuffle your votes around without consequences.

As always, reach out to us @theiconistnews or email hello@theicon.ist with any story suggestions, questions or comments. Thanks!

The AtomicDEX stress test starts in 1 hour! Enter to win up to 777 KMD.


The AtomicDEX stress test starts in one hour! It runs from 12pm GMT to 6pm GMT. Start swapping now to win up to 777 KMD!
 


 

Thanks to Komodo Notary Node operator WebWorker01, who contributed 1554 KMD to the prize pool, the Komodo team now has more than 3,000 KMD to give away to AtomicDEX stress testers! It will be a lottery-style giveaway, where 20 testers will win 77.7 KMD each, plus 2 lucky grand prize winners will win 777 KMD each!

Here's what you need to do to participate in the AtomicDEX stress test and be eligible to win prizes:

First, if you haven't already done so, you need to download AtomicDEX:
 

Download AtomicDEX for Android on Google Play here.
 

Download AtomicDEX for iOS through Test Flight here.


After that, just follow these simple steps:

That's it! Once you've successfully completed at least 30 swaps, you are automatically entered to win prizes.
 

Please note that you don't need to wait for one swap to finish before starting another one. In fact, you can have multiple swaps running at the same time. After one swap is initiated, simply go back to the DEX screen and place new trade orders to make numerous atomic swaps simultaneously. 

Please also note that you don't need to stop at 30 swaps! The more swaps you make, the better your chances of winning a prize. 

Every swap is equal to one ticket in the pool, as long as you meet the minimum requirement of 30 swaps. If you complete 50 swaps, you will have 50 tickets. If you complete 500 swaps, you will have 500 tickets. There is no limit to the number of tickets that a single address can have, so make as many swaps as you can to maximize your chances of winning a prize. 

The Komodo Dev Team will be monitoring and recording the RICK and MORTY networks so any address that completes a minimum of 30 swaps will be automatically added to the prize pool. There's no need to confirm with the Komodo team directly. 

The 20 winners of 77.7 KMD and the 2 grand prize winners of 777 KMD will be chosen at random from the pool of eligible participants. The KMD prizes will be sent directly to the winning addresses. So make sure to backup your seed phrase and store it carefully— you may win prize money and you will surely want to have access to that wallet if you do!

Lastly, the Komodo team encourages everyone who participates in the AtomicDEX stress to post about it on social media. To help spread the word about AtomicDEX, you can post on Twitter with a screenshot of a completed swap and the following hashtags:

  • #atomicDEX

  • #trueDEX

Please tag the official Komodo Twitter account (@KomodoPlatform) and the Komodo team will retweet all posts that use the hashtags above. Let's raise awareness about the cutting-edge AtomicDEX!
 
Happy Halloween and thanks for joining the AtomicDEX stress test!
