1.0.0

Desktop Node Release 1.0.0

The moment we’ve all been waiting for is here—Desktop Node version 1.0.0 marks our official migration to mainnet! 🎉 This release introduces several key updates to enhance your experience as we take this monumental step forward.

New Features and Improvements 🌟

1. Migration to Mainnet:
   The Desktop Node has officially transitioned to the mainnet, unlocking a new era of decentralized performance and stability. As part of this process:

   • Tasks and data from the testnet will be migrated to the mainnet.
   • Users who ran the node on the testnet will have their testnet tokens converted 1:1 to mainnet tokens. These will be distributed partly at the Token Generation Event (TGE) and the remainder through a vesting schedule.
   • To continue with the final phase of the migration flow, users will need to claim their vested tokens through the designated vesting portal.

2. Transaction Confirmation Checks:
   Added confirmation checks for staking, unstaking, and claiming operations, providing greater transparency and reliability when performing these critical actions.

3. Restored Non-Verified Tasks Switch:
   Reintroduced the switch to show or hide non-verified tasks, offering more control over your task view preferences.

This milestone is a testament to the incredible journey we’ve shared with our community. Thank you for your unwavering support, feedback, and enthusiasm. Please ensure you claim your tokens and complete the migration flow to make the most of this exciting new chapter. Let’s build the future, together! 🚀
