Official post from the Dev team

We want to express our great gratitude to all those who are interested in BitNodes and continue to invest in it their computing power.

On peaks the hashrate reached almost 3Th/s and we are sure that this is not the limit.
We want to state that there was no 51% attack and we never mined NODE by ourselves.

Currently, our team is working on the improved version of BitNodes - BitNodes Pro (XNODE), which is designed to fix all the shortcomings revealed during the launch of Bitnodes.
In addition, in Bitnodes Pro there will be formed a venture fund in the amount of 1M coins, which will be used to finance interesting projects using Bitnodes and Bitnodes Pro blockchains.
We are ready to consider your business projects now. It can be projects of marketplaces, bridges with other crypto-currencies, offline terminals, vending machines, etc.
Funds from the fund will be allocated to the most interesting projects, supported by financial calculations.

We plan to launch BitNodes Pro as early as January 2018 and bring this coin to the largest crypto-exchanges within 1-2 months.

As for Bitnodes, this currency will be intended for calculations inside the Bitnodes ecosystem and its access to the exchanges is not yet planned.
This does not mean that its value will be zero. Within the Bitnodes ecosystem, a marketplace will be created for the exchange of NODE / XNODE.

Follow our updates and Happy New Year!
