Hey human nodes, vortex participants, biomapped individuals, and verified humans,
We’ve got an important heads-up for you. There’s a scheduled reset coming up for the biometric servers for the Humanode chain, Biomapper, and BotBasher.
Schedule
When: Thursday, April 9th
What’s happening: We’ll be performing a scheduled reset to upgrade CVMs and biometric servers to improve security.
What it means:
For Node runners and Vortex participants
* You’ll need to go through bioauthentication enrollment again after the reset. This ensures your node keeps running without interruptions.
* No need to rotate or change keys; just re-enroll and re-authenticate.
* We’ll post an announcement right after the reset, so you can re-enroll within the same epoch.
* Try to complete it within 1–2 hours to avoid any downtime in your validator status.
For LP Stakers & Cross-Chain Biomapper Users
* If you’re staking or have bridged your biomap cross-chain, you’ll need to biomap again.
* This will re-link your EVM address so you can continue receiving your rewards in LP staking and prove your uniqueness on the cross-chain biomapper.
For Discord & Telegram BotBasher Users
* If you’re verified as a unique human, you’ll need to reverify and regain your role.
* Server admins using BotBasher for Sybil resistance will need to recreate the assigned role. We’ll share step-by-step instructions for admins separately.
The reset won’t all happen at once.
We’ll announce each server reset separately so everyone can stay in sync.
Keep an eye on these Discord channels in the Humanode Official Server for real-time updates:
# chain-ops
# botbasher-for-discord-ops
# botbasher-for-telegram-ops
# biomapper-ops
We’ll let you know when each part of the reset is complete so you can jump back in and re-enroll.
This is a regular reset that happens roughly every six months. During this period, we clear out old biometric data and refresh our servers.
This reset is also a chance if you want to:
* Change your validator address
* Link a new Discord or Telegram account
* Link a new EVM address to your biomap
Thanks for staying patient and cooperative as we keep improving the Humanode network.
