October 2, 2019, Weekly Update!
Data Updates
As of Wednesday, October 2, 2019, 9:15 am PST — [Time of writing.]
Masternodes Online → 634
Current Block Height → 521116
Next Superblock → 561600
Total Budget → 108,000 Ø (ODIN Coin)
Allocated → 108,000 Ø (100%)
100% of October’s Superblock fund has been allocated. This does not mean you cannot put forth a proposal. Quite the contrary in fact, as the budget is allocated; this creates competition amongst projects vying for the ODIN in exchange for their development.
If your idea is found to be more appealing than current developmental proposals and in turn receives more votes than existing proposals you can supersede theirs, resulting in your project being funded in place of theirs.
Overall, this is great for the ODIN ecosphere as more and more developmental efforts are being put forth, causing a naturally competitive environment that you, the participant in the space, will benefit from.

ODIN Implements SegWit — Let’s Talk About What That Means
Here’s an excerpt from that article:
When considering consensus algorithms like that of ODIN’s, as transaction size increases, the signature hash required would scale quadratically rather than linearly in some instances. This increases transaction time, sometimes as much as to three minutes for maliciously edited transaction IDs — this means safer transactions from large scale investors and payments to mining pools and the like. All in all, scaling quadratically means longer transaction verification times. Which, frankly, no one wants. SegWit solves that.
