I forgot to mention, those are Elrond Testnet wallets, while I appreciate the love, don't send real tokens like BEP2 or ERC-20 to them, ok? Thanks!

If you're not familiar with Mission 6, let me tell you what needs to happen: When the snapshot will be performed on Monday 23 December 12:00 UTC, your wallet balance should be as close as possible to ZERO. You can do whatever you want with your ERD, voting for articles will be the most popular approach, BUT, in the spirit of Shadow Shards, you could be attacking other players, filling their wallet for the snapshot. Having ERD in their wallet can send someone way down on the Leaderboard, this means better chances for you! I'm putting a target on my back!! In a last attempt to have some fun, I challenge you to keep my wallets full for the snapshot. I will try my best to defend my castle and empty the wallets, but depending on the timing, you have a pretty good chance to knock me out of the leaderboard. What can I gain from this? Well, some battle scars :)) and funds for voting, or attacking others! There are no rules in this mission, everything goes!! Here are my wallets: Turtle: 5f06bfe68e78edc52bc642e2bfc56074b98678e7219cfeacfdb6b45fbcf23442 Weasel: 767b0cfd471501c760d3338e5dcb16836f7e9cd7366387851b92022ac6cba020 Eagle: cf51fc9eab73998545e2390a563c7a11603e37d0b581ee18bd1c5b1dc1343563 Raven: 1f59999f81032463036b7414ab65ffbca003542582ec78ebd8032c44ddc7024c Panda: 0f66deababd94d0de7fc205fed533f5bc6a31f9f21f3889f793f8f742ef3f41b Snake: 84fb6cd51e5b5e0c557018bd869a953e645d4e58de0e562acd42f6dd6e0ed2e4 Good luck and have fun! PS: This is also a publicity stunt, so, if you liked my article you can also send your ERD to the voting address at 640e7e30c684aafc3c959881b38ee6bc510798267e7cdc78a314f05ae5294a40. Cheers!!

Here is a all you need to know on the technical level about Samsung's cryto enabling Keystore: https://developer.samsung.com/blockchain/keystore/understanding-sdk Elrond will be supported by the Samsung wallet, as a partnership has been announced.

I think you send the binary payload as data on a transaction to an address with lots or all zeros. It should create a smart contract. Please correct me if I'm wrong, it's all I can remember on this topic, I haven't tried it myself.

Yes, unfortunately you've missed the Second registration window and you'll have to wait for the Third, the dates will be announced soon.

If this round another node of mine gets the top score/uptime, will this be added to the top score from previous round or to the exact node's score/uptime? Does an individual node identity matter for overall uptime/score/rewards? Or top score at the end end will be sum of personal top scores so far. Thanks

If you're already in Round 1 and don't want to add more nodes, you don't have to submit this form!

Awesome! I've started making a living as a validator:

Contabo is by far the cheapest option, 9 euro per month for 6 cores, 16GB RAM, 400GB SSD, 400 Mbit/s port (unlimited traffic). I run 3 instances on it and the proposed block rate is not 100% successful. Those pushing the limits of their hardware will suffer! My advice is to make adjustments for the next waves and ditch the nodes you cannot run at decent performance. As more of us will migrate to Contabo, we'll be at the mercy of Contabo, they might not like our activity and they might impose limits, I hope it doesn't happen though. Most other similarly priced VPSs have a storage problem, max 50gb or so. If the activity is intense, the database will grow quite easily, take care of this aspect. It's not in anyone's interest to have dead nodes as the shard might get frozen without 2/3 active nodes. So keep your enemies close 🙂

If you've registered this identity in the Battle of Nodes, the next release will enable you as validator.

Offtopic: not so fast on that Bingo!

Yep, generated pems are not copied in the node's config folder, I'm getting the same feedback and I was sending some people chasing green horses on the walls :)) Romanian saying

Level 2, discover the possibilities:
