ANNOUNCEMENTS & PARTNERSHIPS

SINOVATE successfully implements Hard Fork and reimburses missing rewards

The MINI Infinity Node Tier Hard Fork was successful. A Mandatory Wallet Upgrade was released, where PC and infinity node wallets had to be updated prior to block height 617,000 in order to continue receiving rewards, following the recent MINI Node reward generation issue.

The SINOVATE team was made aware of a reward generation issue specific to the MINI Infinity Node Tier at block height 583,500 to 617,000, where nodes created after the 1000th were not receiving rewards consistently. 71 Mini Nodes were affected in all. The impacted network participants were users that created a MINI Node between 09.01.2021 and 24.02.21. Node limits have now been removed, presenting current and would-be network participants with enhanced opportunities to benefit from the SINOVATE network as it continues to grow in strength, security, and value.

As of 10/03/2021, all associated missing rewards have been reimbursed. For further details on the nature of this problem, how this was resolved to ensure continuous rewards throughout the 12-month node life cycle, and how superior performance will always be maintained, click here.
