Dev Log 3 is out. A lot of things got cleaned up. Some parts got simpler. Some got more solid. The way chambers, threads, and chat fit together is starting to feel more real now

This one is about refactoring and stabilizing what was built so far, not adding shiny new things.

More soon.

We just published a community playbook for the Humanode community.

It lays out how this place is meant to work when people actually show up, bring ideas, build things, and take part in decisions. It’s meant to make it easier to see where you fit and how things move here.

Here: https://blog.humanode.io/humanode-community-playbook/

We’re also having a community call today, Jan 23 at 2:00 PM, to talk about shaping the Humanode charter. Don't forget to Join in the community call.

New WeHMND/WBTC Biostaking pool deployed 🔥

As you know, the previous WeHMND/WBTC staking pool ended on January 24, 2026. The latest WeHMND/WBTC contract (0x48B522553386dE6dc6f7577eeC2362BDbA1383D3) has been deployed, which is live from the same time in the same block as the previous one ended and will run for 6 months.

If you are staked in the previous pool:
1. You’ll need to unstake and restake your LP tokens in the latest pool.

2. Rewards for the new contract will start rolling in as soon as you stake in the new pool.

Make sure to move your assets to the new pool to keep earning rewards without interruption.

If you are new to Humanode Biostaking, the new pool is a chance to get started, with APRs ranging between 20% - 200%.

Here’s how you can start staking: https://mainnet.biostaker.hmnd.app/

If that old “Huma-node, Huma-node, Huma-node” tune still pops into your head at the strangest times, it might be time to give it a worthy companion.

Vortex Sim Dev Log 4 is out. This one is about how participation is measured, how governing tiers take shape, and how Proto-Vortex keeps moving toward a cognitocratic model.

It focuses on the cognitocratic side of Vortex. How contribution turns into signal. How responsibility scales without turning into hierarchy.
