The Voyager Explorer from Solarlabs is here. Introducing the most comprehensive explorer for the Sentinel Chain. Not only can you explore blocks, transactions, and validators like on a traditional chain, but with Voyager, you can see #dVPN nodes & analytics in real-time. Voyager comes ready and compatible with Keplr. Check it out: https://explorer.solar/sentinel

Sentinel planned scarcity is kicking in. With the latest epoch, inflation has decreased by 6%, in accordance with our economic model. The new inflation rate for $dVPN now stands at 37%, and in six months will decrease further a 6%.

Introducing Voyager: A brand new blockchain explorer designed and developed by the SOLARlabs team, a core contributor to Sentinel. Voyager is built just for the Sentinel Network enabling you to browse Sentinel-specific metrics such as #dVPN nodes, uptimes, and peers connected. The Voyager explorer will launch from the 1st April.

Yesterday on the 17th of March, the $dVPN network reached an all-time-high record of over 1300 concurrent users. That means over 1300 people were paying for and using dVPN applications built on Sentinel's protocol at the same time! stats.sentinel.co The record on Sentinel's ETH based dVPN protocol was over 2000 users, however those were free users. Reaching a mark of over 1000 paying users online at the same time is truly commendable and the biggest gratitude goes out to the community that has made this possible. The Sentinel dVPN network has been online for over 3 years now and once these mobile and desktop applications built on Cosmos are truly robust and feature-rich, white-labelling will begin at a rapid pace exponentially increasing Sentinel's market reach and aggregate user-count. There are very few dApps in existence that provide true utility to the mainstream consumer. Join the Sentinel network in its journey of providing provable privacy to millions of users all around the world!

We are looking for participants to help test our beta #dVPN Linux application and provide valuable feedback before its release. Interested?: Join the testing group - https://t.me/+wGylz1y807diOWU0

Following the launch of the first whitelabeled dVPN application by Exidio, we are thrilled to announce the first Twitter space with the privacy pioneers, Dan Edlebeck (@DanExidio) from Exidio and Tor Bair from Secret Network! Join us for an interesting conversation about application updates, privacy, freedom, and web3. A special announcement for fellow Cosmos supporters will also be revealed. Participants' questions are always welcomed.

Did you know that dVPN nodes are able to accept $OSMO and other IBC supported tokens? Existing dVPN applications and white-labelled applications will be able to support user payments in the form of OSMO in future updates, while users of the CLI client can pay in OSMO today! As the aggregate consumption of bandwidth of dVPNs built on the Sentinel framework increases, fee sharing to dVPN token stakers will begin with stakers receiving fee-shares in the form of different IBC supported tokens that are accepted by Sentinel dVPN node hosts.

There are 80 people using #dVPN applications built on Sentinel at this exact moment. View Real-Time Network statistics at: Visit: http://Stats.sentinel.co Before Sentinel transitioned to the Cosmos ecosystem, it would be common to find over a 1000 concurrent users on Sentinel's ETH based $DVPN applications. However, it is important to note that the current statistics represent the network activity of paying users, while the older statistics of Sentinel's #ETH based #dVPN network represented the activity of free users. Obviously it is much easier to see a strong trajectory in growth of a free dVPN application, generating a strong trajectory for monetized dVPN applications is the real challenge and this is the focus of the ecosystem at this point of time. The more users are paying, more node revenue is generated, resulting in an overall increase in protocol revenue which will be shared with $DVPN token stakers. The Sentinel ecosystem is striving towards 4 digit active sessions, before higher goals.

After months of hard work in testing and finding the optimal hardware, @IndigitusVPN will soon be revealing their $DVPN 'bandwidth mining' router which will allow users to earn off of their excess bandwidth These routers along with cloud-based nodes will power #dVPNs on Sentinel. An official promotion video from Indigitus will soon follow in addition to more information on pre-orders and technical specifications of the hardware device.

Community beta testing for Sentinel's first desktop dVPN client on Cosmos has now begun. This desktop client will support the payment for dVPN services in other IBC supported currencies as well. A new iOS update is soon being released incorporating user feedback.

The Exidio dVPN mobile application is launched! If you're interested in the dApp and want to learn more, join our first Twitter Spaces with Dan Edlebeck (@DanExidio) from Exidio. Following the launch of the first white-labeled dVPN application built on the Sentinel dVPN framework, the Exidio dVPN application, it is a great time to host a virtual community meeting for all web3 supporters. The main topics will be application releases, Exidio's relationship with the Sentinel dVPN network, as well as web3 in general. Listeners' questions are encouraged!

The first white-labeled dVPN application built on the Sentinel dVPN framework is releasing in 1 week. https://apps.apple.com/app/exidio-dvpn/id1597126716 The Exidio dVPN application is one of the first dApps to facilitate seamless in-app purchases through ApplePay, allowing users to pay with their debit/credit card. dVPN nodes receive income in the form of dVPN tokens (and soon other IBC supported assets including UST), while the end-users are able to pay in the form of fiat. Integrating traditional payment channels broadens the target market of dVPN applications built on Sentinel exponentially, and allows for dVPNs built on Sentinel to reach the global mainstream audience. While a single dVPN built on Sentinel cannot compete with multi-billion dollar centralized VPN conglomerates which have yearly marketing budgets in the 10s of Millions, a global network of decentralized and autonomous dVPN applications have the ability to capture a serious % of the global VPN market share.

The network statistics for dVPN applications built on Sentinel's cosmos based hub are now live. http://stats.sentinel.co Several new white-label applications are being launched from the ecosystem before the end of the year, desktop app is almost out. These statistics will soon include the usage from the Sentinel iOS client (once it is accepted by the App store), upcoming Mac OS client, upcoming Linux client, upcoming Windows client, as well as the Exidio and Solar labs white label applications in addition to other White label applications built on Sentinel’s dVPN protocol. The 4 key categories of statistics that are available on this page include: - Active Nodes - Sessions - Data Consumed - Average Session Duration https://medium.com/sentinel/sentinel-dvpn-stats-page-on-cosmos-is-now-live-stats-sentinel-co-55339cac06a2
