DePub

depub.SPACE

depub.SPACE is a Web3 decentralized Twitter that requires only a small amount of LIKE to directly “DePub” (decentralized-publish) text and images to blockchain and IPFS. Users can connect their Keplr wallet or the Liker Land app to post messages on depub.SPACE . Chinese New Year campaign is going on, you may participate in the #decentralizehk 好康,團拜領取 88,888 LikeCoin 紅包 activity to receivered pockets

Civic Liker Web3 (beta)

Web3 is here. Civic Liker will evolve into a crypto version, and no longer support legacy credit card payments. Starting from 21 February, you can become a Civic Liker by staking LIKE to the Civic Liker node. Besides supporting the author you like, you will also become a stakeholder to vote on proposals and participate in the DAO governance. For more details, please refer to Civic Liker Web3 revamp in the Year of the Tiger, and stay tuned for further updates.

stake.like.co Update

Liker Land team has added support for 9 decimal places to stake.like.co and improves its ability to sort validators and other parameters.

Wallet interface

Besides stake.like.co, users can use OmniFlix, and ping.pub to transfer, vote, and delegate LIKE.

LikeCoin chain upgrade

Change the LikeCoin address prefix

Liker Land team is looking to change the LikeCoin wallet address prefix (from cosmo1 prefix to like1), including support for existing web pages, older CLI, Keplr and Ledger. Temporarily found old records of SIGN_MODE_DIRECT can interact between the two prefixes without hindrance. Technical details can be found on GitHub, please feel free to check it out and provide feedback.

Upgrade to Cosmos SDK 0.44

LikeCoin chain is now preparing for the next round of upgrades to the Cosmos SDK 0.44 and is trying to integrate the Cosmosvisor tool to allow validators to automatically upgrade, making the whole process smoother.

NFT module

Liker Land team and the newly onboarded Oursky developers are researching and testing on the Cosmos SDK NFT module scheme that is most suitable for the LikeCoin chain. Looking to inject NFT power into the LikeCoin ecosystem.
