Blocks are going live on snapchain on Monday, July 27 with release v0.14.0! Node operators, please pull the latest release! As usual, if you use the snapchain upgrade script, you'll get it automatically.
Protocol-level blocks were introduced in a FIP from the community btw (π @marthendalnunes)

Channels are landing on the protocol! We're planning to anchor channel ownership as ENS-style NFTs. A couple things we're still figuring out:
a. whether we deploy the NFTS on Base or ETH L1
b. annual cost. currently $25 USDC but renewal and squatting isn't currently enforced

Excited to announce that we're onboarding our first snapchain validator node from @unooo.eth! Over the coming weeks and months we'll continue adding more validator nodes operated by folks in the /farcaster community.
If you're running a node, be sure to upgrade to the latest release, v0.11.5 before February 23.
The bootstrap and upgrade scripts should work again btw.

/degen is now proposing and voting on snapchain blocks and gives us 2 community-operated validators, alongside /uno! With that, /neynar has gone from operating ~83% of nodes (5/6) to operating ~71% of nodes (5/7)
Who else wants in?
