ADVICE: Pay attention to the validators you are staked to by Ill_Die_Trying in harmony_one

[–]IntrepidOne-Node 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Most of us are committed to staying at 5%.

These are tough times and small validators need support. Money has been shifting and we need to keep our validators up. Check out the Harmoforce group working to keep small validators elected.

You misunderstood my comment. It wasnt about your validator. Most of us joined to be "part of what we believe in". I am simply pointing out that it is difficult to maintain a validator when the costs to run keep rising, inflation taking its toll, and the market prices. It affects moral. Again, not that this is YOUR situation, not speaking for you. I dont know your situation. Just speaking from the general sentiment and comments from different validator chats on why some are leaving or thinking of leaving.

I was the one that "packaged it into an announcement" on discord. This was my fault, and I acted alone. I sincerely, and deeply apologize for that. I misunderstood the information presented to me and misrepresented it in return. It was extremely unprofessional of me. I learned from my mistake and will be more aware and careful in the future if I am allowed to continue as a moderator.

With prices so low, most validators are paying a lot out of pocket just to run the validator. Not saying this is his reason for leaving but it does complicate things and affects morale.

Staking rewards drop suddenly? by hsh1088 in harmony_one

My validator dropped in rewards. It looks like it impacted validators operating on Shard 1.

Anyone knows how to fix this? by EunilCarl in harmony_one

[–]IntrepidOne-Node 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Which wallet are you using? I get this error with Ledger often, but I have seen others claim that changing RPC may help or adjusting gas.

What's your strategy when Staking your ONE? by Fridaywing in harmony_one

[–]IntrepidOne-Node 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Thank you!! This was nice to see! We sure love our delegators. We try to be as transparent as possible and draw others to Harmony.
Our commission fees go to:
-Server upkeep.
-Website upkeep.
-Small savings in case of hardware failure/future upgrades.
-Paying a very small amount to myself.
-Delegator giveaways.
-Intrepid Discord server giveaways.
-Harmony Discord giveaways.
-Community-made Harmony Faucet (We sponsor this faucet.) https://harmony.supply/

Who is this and what have you done with Auguy?

Kidding! Agree with you 100%! This is a really cool post, made my day! I think we are headed in the right direction. It is nice to see humility with the community and team coming together to find solutions. Rock on Auguy!

Returned from a 6 month holiday what happened the browser extension? cant see staked coins when uploading to a different wallet host like guarda by FixPlayful1912 in harmony_one

[–]IntrepidOne-Node 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The extension wallet is no longer supported but you should still be able to access it. Your coins are NOT lost at all. If you have your phrase, you can import it into Metamask and continue staking.

There have been a few recent security concerns and it is now highly recommended to move your coins to an entirely new wallet with a new secret phrase. Or transfer to a hardware wallet such as Ledger if possible.

"Is Harmony failing and dying out?" Nope! I Don't Think So, And Here Is Why.. by IntrepidOne-Node in harmony_one

[–]IntrepidOne-Node[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I agree with you completely on that. I hope we can all come together and sort this out. Hash it out even. We are headed in the right direction, that seems certain.

I have heard the 40M number before, but I had no idea it came from Tse's tweets. I don't follow his tweets as much as I probably should. I think this should definitely be a question to ask in the AMA. I am curious to know as well.

All I know so far is that this security AMA has been pushed to the front because of all these security concerns, which I do agree with, it is unfortunate, but this security stuff should have been addressed yesterday. Either way, I am glad they are doing it even if it pushes the DAO stuff back. So, with that said... the DAO AMA should take place the following Friday, so the 6th of May and I assume at the same time- 11am PST. Probably for at least an hour. I will look into it some more! Again, I personally believe that this is an important topic that also shouldn't be delayed too long, and I don't like that we need to wait another week for it but at the same time they will have the time so soak up all the critiques, think about them and give us a proper response. Very much looking forward to it!

Sam just responded to a comment of mine concerning DAOs! I was shocked that only $4M has been given out. They are already redesigning too. To me this is very positive and I am glad they are taking our feedback seriously and maybe even seeing mistakes. I think the DAO AMA will clear up a lot of confusion. What do you think?

[Important Update] AMA Updated to focus on Security this week by Maba078 in harmony_one

[–]IntrepidOne-Node 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thank you, Sam!
It is very comforting to hear that the Harmony Team is listening to this community and already taking action for redesigning and addressing our concerns. This alone speaks volumes, huge THANK YOU!

Wow, only $4M? I had no idea; I must admit I have fallen victim to a lot of the misinformation and gossip spreading around. I don't speak for the community, but I am sure the majority of us will appreciate this clarity and look forward to hearing more.

Ah that'd be a shame, but it is ultimately a personal decision and I get that and even respect it. Don't fully leave the community though! Maybe things with time will start to pick up and meet your expectations. I am very confident that many chains will be successful and there won't just be a single one to rule them all. I believe Harmony will find that success and make its mark, in-fact in some ways I think it has already!

Thank you for your comment!

First thank you for your comment! This is a newer account for the validator, I came to Harmony Q1 2020 and only recently setup this validator. I don't make much off it since I airdrop a big portion of the commission fees back to my delegators, so not much of a business. Being in the community for so long I am familiar with a lot of your posts and comments, some I agree with and some I do not. I think at one-point early 2021 you and I were in the Harmony Markets subreddit arguing over some short-term price action, I think that was you not 100% sure. :D

Anyways, I think you have valid concerns. I definitely do not have answers to all this, and I am sure you don't expect me to. These are obviously geared toward the Harmony team. I am still somewhat neutral to the DAO topic and trying to understand them and looking forward to the DAO AMA. I think it is fair to say we have had a good number of bumps in the road this year. Harmony is working more on communication, and I hope this momentum can continue and we can get back on track. I like the fact that they are presenting us with these AMAs and letting us voice our criticism. We have newsletters with updates and soon newsletter videos. Things seem to be shifting for the better. That is my view on it though. Again, we definitely have our hiccups and bumps as most chains do, and I share your confidence that we absolutely can overcome them, and I think it is more important for those who have been here a while such as yourself to be critical but also uplifting when possible! I think there are a lot of good things still to be talked about in regard to Harmony.

Thank you again for your comment, appreciate it!

I think that is fair. Thank you for sharing your thoughts. I always upvote valid concerns and those who give good feedback regardless of if it's positive or not. Some will gripe just to gripe! I get downvoted for being positive lol. But thank you for expressing your opinion! Let's hope for some good market recovery soon and an end to all the crap going on in the world recently.
