Hello Iconists and welcome back!
It’s been several weeks since we last wrote a new piece, and the time has absolutely flown by!
It’s hard to believe the pre-election period has finally finished — for many of us this is a great chance to consolidate for what’s coming, have a very short break and prepare for the very exciting transition from candidate to P-Rep.

New Toys!
Since our last update—a few weeks full of development, testing, deploying, networking —we have some new cool stuff to show you.
The ICX AutoStaker

The AutoStaker is a Bash Script automating the process of claiming I-Score (1 ICX minimum), staking and voting. The script can be auto-run once a day in order to compound interest and increase earnings of ICX staking/voting. Crucial component of ICX AutoStaker is T-Bears, tool developped by ICON Foundation which supports Linux and Mac OS. Therefore, ICX AutoStaker is also limited to these platforms. Windows 10 is supported by running the Windows Subsystem for Linux.
We have also created a variation of the script, requested in our telegram group, the AutoSender (available here), that automatically claims iScore and sends the new ICX to a different Address instead of re-staking it.
New Transparency mini-Tools
During this pre-election cycle, we decided to create a few transparency tools to showcase the strengths and drawbacks of ICON, give people a better picture of what is happening. Actually, one of our commitments for after the election is to build on these mini tools, create a full-fledged stats page, along with other things.
So, this month, we came up with couple new Transparency Tools:
Iconomics

Iconomics is a simple tool to provide a better picture at ICON’s network overall traffic and governance.
TX DATA

What makes ICON move? Here is a list with the most popular smart contracts or dApps on ICON. We also compare that with other blockchains, to see what ICON is currently missing and could imitate or avoid.
Reminder: P-Rep Notifier
Available at: https://notify.blockmove.eu/
Last month, we developed the Low Productivity Notifier. Now every Iconist can sign up by adding their email and ICX address; the notifier checks productivity of every Main P-Rep once a minute and notifies all affected when productivity drops to 95, 90 and 85% levels. This way, Iconists can re-vote on time before the 6% coin burn penalty affects them.
The coin burn will come into effect after November 29. No notifications will be sent before that.
In the Media
Over the past month, we had two great interviews, where we discussed Blockmove, our plans, and the future of ICON. One with Robert Koehler from the Iconist and another with highly respected William McKenzie, from fellow P-Rep Rhizome.
Our interview with Rhizome will be available in the coming days, both as an article but also as a podcast for your listening pleasure.
Thank You!
To sum up, we would like to thank you for your incredible support and trust, lending us over 2,000,000 votes. We see this as a great privilege and a great opportunity to influence, develop and nourish the ICON Ecosystem.
This has been an incredible two months of developing, testing, deploying, networking and we look forward to do this at a much higher level from now on.
In our next update in the very near future, we will be discussing the implementation of all this: how we will be incorporating as a non-profit, our new setup, our future engagements, but also what you should be expecting from us in the coming months.
Once more, we are committed to provide maximum transparency in this process. Thank you for your overwhelming support in our journey!
