Aleph.im what happened in October?
We are thrilled to unveil a revamped user interface (UI) for our dashboard, enhancing user experience and operational efficiency. Furthermore, our technical team successfully deployed two pivotal updates to our Core Channel Nodes and Virtual Machine, fortifying network stability and feature-set. On the community front, our participation in events in Milan and Luxembourg has not only solidified existing partnerships but also opened doors to new opportunities. Last but not least, our Halloween community campaign is starting Tuesday 31st at 8:00 am until the end of November.
Dev update
Our devs have been working hard over the month this past month to improve existing features and open the doors to new ecosystems for our partners and users!
Revamped Dashboard UI
We’ve simplified navigation and tucked advanced settings away for ease of use. Now, managing Volumes, SSH, Custom Domains, and Environmental Variables is fully user-friendly. The new design is not only aesthetically pleasing but also features a more intuitive layout and streamlined navigation. These changes are aimed at reducing the learning curve for newcomers while improving overall productivity for existing users.

Core Channel Nodes
In the recent release v0.5.1 of pyaleph, several new features and bug fixes have been introduced to enhance its functionality and stability. Among the new features are full support for instance messages, balance checks on instances and persistent VMs, authenticated file upload functionality which now allows for simultaneous processing of a file and the corresponding aleph message.
On the bug fix front, the update addresses a critical infinite RPC loop issue encountered by node operators, resolves stability issues with websockets, and fixes a recurring exception triggered by a breaking change in the ETH/BSC indexer GraphQL API.
