Weekly Dev Update #19
Hey Y’all,
Things are moving along at a fast pace as we hire more developers. Service Nodes
The first natural Service Node deregistration will be processed in the coming days. We have written a guide on some of the considerations users should make, here

TLDR: Be very careful if you are using autostake in an open or closed pool.
Service Node grace period added, this means that Service Nodes can re-register without being deregistered
Additional work is being done on swarm testing algorithms. You can see our testing framework here, along with some different algorithms
