And here I am\ntoday!<\/p>\n\n\n\n Robocop | Satoshi Club<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n Oh wow 20 Years experience what a great experience and background you have<\/p>\n\n\n\n Jaf | EPNS<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n Now, about EPNS.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Our project – EPNS – Ethereum Push Notification Service is\nintended to be the standardized communication layer for all things\ndecentralized. And what better communication channel than push notifications.\nNow, our day starst with an alarm, a push notification in itself and throughout\nthe day, we stay connected to people, bank accounts, and more using push\nnotifications.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Jonah <\/strong>🏅🎹<\/strong>\n| Satoshi Club<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n Yeah.. very impressive <\/p>\n\n\n\n Robocop | Satoshi Club<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n As i remember EPNS already do 3 times AMA in here , but\nthere are so much new user join recently, so what are new updates that you\nbring here ?<\/p>\n\n\n\n Jaf | EPNS<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n Thank you!!<\/p>\n\n\n\n And the last 4 years have been in crypto – it feels like 4\ndecades in real time <\/p>\n\n\n\n Jaf | EPNS<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n To finish my idea about EPNS<\/p>\n\n\n\n For us, the simple equation was to furnish this feature in a\ndecentralized way for dApps and Web3 protocols to equip themselves with. People\nrepresented by their wallet addresses can receive notifications from Ethereum\ndApps, NFT marketplaces, etc using our service.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Jonah <\/strong>🏅🎹<\/strong>\n| Satoshi Club<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n This is absolutely a great initiative <\/p>\n\n\n\n Robocop | Satoshi Club<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n Thank you for the detail answer , btw we already prepare 6\nquestion from our community, ready to continue?<\/p>\n\n\n\n Jaf | EPNS<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n Lets do this!!! <\/p>\n\n\n\n Robocop | Satoshi Club<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n Q1 from Telegram user @victorogb<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n Since the last notable interaction with the Satoshi Club community, EPNS has gone on to launch, integrate and roll out exciting products and services. Asides your Mainnet launch, there has been interesting developments; from the introduction of off-chain notification, to the lunch of more than 15 channels on mainnet, Collaboration with Huobi Global and Atlantis World, Push Grant proposals and lots more. Indeed this has been some exciting times for EPNS. On the backs of this, can you carefully touch on each of this point as stated, what are their features and how have they impacted on general operations of EPNS? Also, since EPNS has successfully migrated its dApp, browser extension and mobile App to ETH mainnet, how will this impact on overall services?<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n Jaf | EPNS<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n WOW!<\/p>\n\n\n\n Way to start with an awesome question<\/p>\n\n\n\n Jonah <\/strong>🏅🎹<\/strong>\n| Satoshi Club<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n A great start <\/p>\n\n\n\n Jaf | EPNS<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n First of all – thank you for being there with us during this\njourney<\/p>\n\n\n\n I’m leaving here our Mainnet launch article for those who\nhavent had the time to go over it. <\/p>\n\n\n\n https:\/\/medium.com\/ethereum-push-notification-service\/the-epns-mainnet-is-here-470faec0c01<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n Jonah <\/strong>🏅🎹<\/strong>\n| Satoshi Club<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n Thank you for sharing this…<\/p>\n\n\n\n Jaf | EPNS<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n Now this has been a very busy yet super exciting time for us<\/p>\n\n\n\n You mentioned in the question the introduction of Off-chain\nnotifs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n This is very interesting because in order to get this done\nwe had to fiest release one very important piece of the entire ecosystem\n–> The PUSH Nodes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Jaf | EPNS<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n For this we did release a very comprehensive article that\ntells how everything works!<\/p>\n\n\n\n https:\/\/medium.com\/ethereum-push-notification-service\/push-nodes-p2p-web3s-way-to-communicate-6a473577d173<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n This was key to get it done as it opens the door to many\nwonderful things.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Robocop | Satoshi Club<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n Awesome! thank you! article is always a good source of info <\/p>\n\n\n\n Jaf | EPNS<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n Now, about the collabs<\/p>\n\n\n\n it has been incredible the feedback and support from the\ncommunity and other protocols<\/p>\n\n\n\n We have had a lot of interest, and while we have 15 channels\navailable right now there are more coming.<\/p>\n\n\n\n As you stated we have many collabs with many interesting\nteams in the space. From DeFi, Metaverse, Marketplaces, Identity, etc<\/p>\n\n\n\n Jonah <\/strong>🏅🎹<\/strong>\n| Satoshi Club<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n Can you mention some of these names?<\/p>\n\n\n\n Jaf | EPNS<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n and finally – how to receive notifications?<\/p>\n\n\n\n We have our Mobile App in the 2 flavors: iOS + Android<\/p>\n\n\n\n The Chrome Browser Extension<\/p>\n\n\n\n And our dApp<\/p>\n\n\n\n Also, services can implement notifications on their dApps as\nwell to show you notifications that matter to you<\/p>\n\n\n\n Robocop | Satoshi Club<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n Yes, i see Atlantis World, what collaboration did you do ?<\/p>\n\n\n\n Jaf | EPNS<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n Good question <\/p>\n\n\n\n We reached out to them as we are big fans of Atlantis and\nMetaverse projects.<\/p>\n\n\n\n And usually this conversations are really great. These are\ncandid conversations where we identify great fit for notifications, and thats\nhow our collabs start <\/p>\n\n\n\n Jaf | EPNS<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n DONE <\/p>\n\n\n\n Jonah <\/strong>🏅🎹<\/strong>\n| Satoshi Club<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n Thank you for your answers <\/p>\n\n\n\n Ready for the next question?<\/p>\n\n\n\n Robocop | Satoshi Club<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n Thanks for the answer, shall we go to next question?<\/p>\n\n\n\n Jaf | EPNS<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n Go go go!<\/p>\n\n\n\n Robocop | Satoshi Club<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n Q2 from Telegram user @Cheriemike<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n According to what i read in your whitepaper,you said that hackers or other malicious groups or organisations may attempt to interfere with $PUSH and\/or the EPNS protocol in a variety of ways including malware attacks, denial of service attacks, consensus-based attacks etc You also said there is a risk that a third party or a member of the Company, the Distributor or their respective affiliates may intentionally or unintentionally introduce weaknesses into the core infrastructure of $PUSH and\/or the EPNS protocol, which could negatively affect $PUSH and\/or the EPNS protocol.So how do you intend to prevent malicious persons and hackers from exploiting vulnerabilities in your smart contract design?Do you have a bug bounty program in place so that users can help out in revealing any potential flaws?How will you rate the trust among your team members are they individuals you know personally and trust?Please explain Thanks<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n Jaf | EPNS<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n wow – great questions!<\/p>\n\n\n\n Jaf | EPNS<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n So, being an open permisionless protocol the risks will\nalways be there.<\/p>\n\n\n\n That part of the beautify of the Web3 space <\/p>\n\n\n\n Yes – teams could potentially be at risk of hacks, but at\nthe same time teams will also be exposed to a world of collaborators trying to\ndo good things.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Jonah <\/strong>🏅🎹<\/strong>\n| Satoshi Club<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n Btw what audits have you done to ascertain that this risked\nare minimised?<\/p>\n\n\n\n Jaf | EPNS<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n we do have as a part of our ecosystem and entire game theory\nvarious mechanisms that allow us to counter this.<\/p>\n\n\n\n In this case one very important one is SPAM Controls.<\/p>\n\n\n\n SO basically if you <\/p>\n\n\n\n Being a decentralized network we cannot really take an\narbitrary decision and ban or block someone, and at the same time we know bad\nactors will try to come and try to break or game the system\u2026 and this is why we\ndecided to implement and keep a SPAM score.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Jaf | EPNS<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n What it does? after it reaches a certain level or score it\nwill start to throttle all the notifications that a channel can send out. And\nthis is our penalization theory #1 where if a channel is doing something by\nmistake they will realize they are being throttled and will pivot into good\nbehavior\u2026 if they don’t \u2192 SPAM score will continue increasing until they cannot\nsend notifications.<\/p>\n\n\n\n To decrease SPAM score there are a lot of variables to take\nin consideration with time is a crucial factor . It goes to a very long time if\nthe spam score is too high. For instance a channel that decides to play bad and\ndont want to switch to good behavior.. that channel will not be able to send\nnotifs in a long time. This is penalization #2<\/p>\n\n\n\n This will be an algorithmic approach towards implementing\ngood SPAM and throttling mechanisms.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Jaf | EPNS<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n And finally yes, we have performed audit over our contracts two\ntimes already.<\/p>\n\n\n\n You can ready more about it here:<\/p>\n\n\n\n https:\/\/medium.com\/ethereum-push-notification-service\/roadmap-q3-audited-epns-push-protocol-v1-is-here-f4560dfe550c<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n Robocop | Satoshi Club<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n I think the SPAM score is new mechanism right? that will be\ngreat <\/p>\n\n\n\n Jaf | EPNS<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n I mentioned all this, as we are taking measures from many\ndifferent angles to ensure robustness and reliability of the protocol!<\/p>\n\n\n\n Jaf | EPNS<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n Great question. Thank you very much<\/p>\n\n\n\n
