In this release, we have introduced a new mint mechanism that mints tokens only during successful MPC wallet generation events. This approach incentivizes validator nodes in the Sonr system to actively participate in account generation. Validators are required to generate a minimum of 20 accounts every 100 blocks to prevent their stake from being slashed. Clients requesting new account creation receive credential creation options from the public REST API for their service origin and claim preconfigured wallet addresses. Additionally, we have implemented numerous bug fixes and improvements to enhance the overall user experience and security of the Sonr platform. Read on to discover the complete list of updates.

Sonr is a peer-to-peer identity and asset management system that leverages DID documents, Webauthn, and IPFS — providing users with a secure, user-friendly way to manage their digital identity and assets.

The final software upgrade for our DevNet chain has been deployed, and we're all in on transitioning to TestNet! This release builds on the "rebuilt from scratch" announced on 

 team was a stunningly seamless integration within the Sonr DID Spec. Documents can Issue/Verify Claims and create Attestation/Origin Tokens - all while using JWKs as an authorization header for the Vault API endpoints. We plan to utilize the 

There's little dispute that we will live in a Multi-Chain future. The Sonr MPC protocol offers a Decentralized Solution to the traditional onboarding mechanism in Web3, greatly alleviating user friction points. Our latest release has begun migrating our Account Interface to allow for custom transaction signing implementations. This includes the initial development of accounts for 

So far, we have incorporated the following hashing functions:

 we will be prioritizing these initiatives:

Mercury Upgrade Deployed!

We are excited to announce the (soft launch) of our latest module for our Cosmos Blockchain. Sonr is a self-sovereign data platform that enables developers to build user-centric, privacy-preserving applications, all secured by a Cosmos-powered blockchain.

Sonr utilizes DID documents, Webauthn, IPFS, and multi-party computation, to provide a fully decentralized mechanism for identity and crypto asset management. This allows developers to create  user-friendly and secure applications while ensuring users maintain control of their data and assets.

The x/identity module results from the culmination of multiple existing elements in the Sonr component stack. By leveraging the default P2P nature, we were able to optimize our "Decentralized-Wallet-As-A-Service" significantly.
