CYBER REPUBLIC <strong>Weekly</strong> <strong>Update</strong>/Issue 19<br />

SUPERNODES<br />

By Jeremy G.<br />

ELAlliance (Formerly the DPoS Node Rights Alliance) *<strong>Update</strong>d*<br />

ELAlliance has been covered extensively in previous issues of the CR <strong>Weekly</strong> Newsletter.<br />

https://blog.cyberrepublic.org/<strong>20</strong>19/02/25/weekly-report-february-25-<strong>20</strong>19/<br />

https://blog.cyberrepublic.org/<strong>20</strong>19/03/05/weekly-report-march-3-<strong>20</strong>19/<br />

They are now recruiting 24 node candidates (up to 30 in the case of a large applicant pool,<br />

down from the original 36) and voters. ELAlliance is not an exclusive alliance, meaning that<br />

node candidates of ELAlliance can also be members of other alliances as long as they<br />

comply with the rules set by ELAlliance.The reason for the reduction of the number of node<br />

candidates is that it allows voters to vote for 12 candidates outside the Alliance while<br />

casting all 24 votes to the those inside the Alliance to enjoy the greatest rewards.They hope<br />

to be flexible for both candidates and voters to join the ELAlliance whose aims are to benefit<br />

ELA holders who cannot obtain reward directly from the DPoS elections and prevent the<br />

potential dominance of whales.<br />

Currently there are 22 node candidates filled, and community members are invited to apply.<br />

They have recently release their website (in Chinese) and will have the English version very<br />

soon.<br />

International Decentralized Elastos Alliance (IDEA) *<strong>Update</strong>d*<br />

A number of supernode candidates have come together to form International<br />

Decentralized Elastos Alliance. Due to concerns about over-centralization by the “Chinese<br />

Alliance”, they hope to be an example of full decentralization. At the moment, the countries<br />

represented are: Scandinavia (Elastos Scandinavia), France (Orion), Russia (Northern Lights),<br />

US (Houston and Starfish), Italy (Vitruvian Node),Austria-US-Morocco-New Zealand-England-<br />

Germany-Belgium (Enter Elastos Node), and France-US-Canada (Wild Strawberries Node).<br />
