We are happy to announce that users will soon be able to create canisters on the larger subnet that was created a couple weeks ago. The subnet will be assigned to the “fiduciary” subnet type which users can choose in dfx when they’re creating their canisters, see the docs for more details. Canisters…

Glad to see the fiduciary subnet going live. A couple of things I don’t understand: Why was it decided to do 28 nodes instead of capping it at roughly the number of independent node providers of the subnet, 19? Alternatively, since there appear to be more than 19 independent node providers in the…

Hey @blabagastered , I’m not sure where exactly you saw that the fiduciary subnet has 36 nodes but if you look at the internet computer dashboard link that I included in the original post, the number of nodes for this subnet is 28. The number of nodes providers on the IC is indeed limited at the mom…

Not sure where I read 36 either. In that case the questions are the same but with 28 instead of 36 in them (now edited). Why not use 28 independent providers, or alternatively why not use as many nodes as there are independent providers in the subnet (19 on dashboard)?

I seem to have gotten 36 from the docs linked above here (actually 34, and only an example): https://internetcomputer.org/docs/current/developer-docs/deploy/computation-and-storage-costs/

Using more nodes from even the same providers can provide some better resistance against certain types of attacks. For example, certain node providers have nodes in different physical locations. In this sense, we’re still better off than having fewer nodes as one would need to gain access to a large…

Hopefully 28 independent providers jump in soon. When people look at the IC to establish whether it can secure e.g. a billion in bitcoin, they will ask themselves how many people need to collude to take the billion, and the number is now 19 x 2/3 = ~13. With 28 independent providers it would be ~19…

I’m surprised a project like OGY hasn’t blackholed the canister

We are working on V2 of our governance canister that will have call_raw and the ability for the DAO to upgrade canisters. At that point, we won’t be ‘blackholed’ but will be controlled by the DAO canister only(similar to the NNS). When the current version was rolled out call_raw wasn’t in the moto…

Interesting take. I understand your not so much concerned with token price action but don’t you think OGY should have some sort of preventative measures to keep token mints from occurring? There are meme tokens on the ic that are able to do this with a natural community. See: Candid: DFINITY Canist…
