2022-09-28 22:12:32 BTC.Secure x Terra Classic

We are glad to be a part of the $LUNC community and are grateful to our 7463 faithful delegates

Together with each of you, we are successfully strengthening the reliability of the Terra Classic and recover the ecosystem with the most active community.

For $LUNC to become even stronger thanks to the improvement of decentralization and the development of a reliable infrastructure of our validator, we are updating the validator commission to 5% from October 3.

Here are 5 reasons why you should delegate to BTC.Secure:

1. We've been validating the Terra Classic network from the beginning and were among the 30 validators at the genesis classic. Only 6 validators out of 30 continue to work in Terra Classic.

2. We have a high-quality infrastructure and always make updates on time. Our uptime is as close to 100% as possible. BTC.Secure has never been jailed. Your $LUNC are completely safe.

3. We are located in the United States as a corporation BTC.Secure Inc. and we provide staking services in full compliance with the laws. This is especially important for the validator as the best data centers and regulated exchanges work with us.

4. We are confident in the quality of our service and offer the Staking Services Agreement, according to which we guarantee our delegates 100% validation stability in Terra Classic. This is guarantee staking rewards by the 100% Service Level Agreement for you.

5. We take part in all important and significant voting in the network. By the way, we initiated a limitation of the maximum Voting Power per validator at 20% in Terra Classic. This update enhances network security and increases decentralization.

We have been with Terra Classic for more than 3 years and will continue to validate the network with all the reliability that our infrastructure provides.

Join us by delegating $LUNC to one of the oldest, most reliable and time-tested validators

Let's make $LUNC great again

Here is the Step-by-step guide (with screenshots) how to delegate to BTC.Secure in the Terra Classic network.

2022-06-02 19:49:13 Terra 2.0 is here

A new version of the Terra network was launched with a new version of the native LUNA token, the supply of which was distributed by airdrop among holders of LUNC (Luna Classic), USTC (TerraClassic USD) and aUST (deposited USTC in the Anchor Protocol).

LUNA DISTRIBUTION
You could get an airdrop if:
• before the attack* you held LUNA (including staking derivatives) and/or aUST (the maximum amount of aUST on the wallet to which the drop will apply is limited to 500k aUST)
• after the attack** you held LUNA (including staking derivatives) and/or UST
______________________
*up to 7544910 block — May 7, at 14:59:37 UTC
**up to 7790000 block — May 26, at 16:38:08 UTC

THE METHOD OF DISTRIBUTION
Not all LUNA tokens were distributed immediately after the launch of the network, most of them will be blocked for a certain period (cliff) with subsequent vesting. Vesting is the period during which the asset is gradually unblocked. In this case, the tokens will be partially unblocked each block.

VESTING PERIOD
The vested tokens will be blocked for at least 6 months (for the cliff period), and then they'll be gradually unblocked with each block (~6 seconds).

With the launch of the network, all vested LUNA were automatically staked to different Terra validators for maintain network security. Users will receive rewards for them and will be able to request them at any time. Users can also choose the validator they want to stake vested LUNA — delegation, redelegation and undelegation functions are available.

Initially, all vested LUNA were automatically delegated to the validators at genesis, and the user himself decides whether to leave it as is, change the validator or not delegate at all.

AIRDROP SUPPORT
Exchanges that have supported airdrop since genesis: Binance, Bitfinex, Bitget, Bithumb, Bitmart, Bitrue, Buenbit, Bybit, Coinmetro, Coinone, Crypto. com, FTX, Gate, GOPAX, Hoo, Huobi, Kraken, Kucoin, Lbank, Let's Bit, MEXC, Nexo, Okcoin, OKX, Upbit

For wrapped tokens in other networks (Ethereum, BNB Chain, Polygon, etc.), LUNA was allocated and blocked in the community pool at genesis. Their distribution will be made later.

BTC.Secure VALIDATOR
We invite everyone to delegate your free and vested LUNA to our validator on the Terra network, cause we:
• have experience in validating blockchain networks for more than 3 years and our uptime in all networks is close to 100%;
• validate the classic version of the Terra network from the beginning and were among the 30 validators at the genesis classic;
• entered the white list of Terra validators in Lido Finance, the largest liquid staking service with a total asset value exceeding $8.5B;
• have 100% Service Level Agreement (guarantee of validation stability for delegates) in the Staking Services Agreement.

HOW TO DELEGATE
To delegate, you'll need the Terra Station app:
• Web-app
• Windows
• Mac (Apple Chip, Intel Chip)
• Linux (.rpm, .deb)
• iOS
• Android
• Chrome Extension
• Firefox Add-on

1) For those who don't have a wallet yet, create one and save the seed phrase in a safe place (if you lose it, you'll lose access to assets). If you have LUNA on your Trust Wallet, then just log in using your phrase in the Terra Station.
2) Make sure that the Terra network (not Classic) is selected.
3) Go to the Stake section.
4) Select BTC.Secure from the list of validators or enter a public key in the search bar:

terravaloper15389y60f0rk596tm38qewqycr8ztt8hshsf2mk

5a) In order to delegate your LUNA, click Delegate, specify the amount, click Next and confirm the transaction.
5b) In order to redelegate your LUNA from another validator — to BTC.Secure, select BTC.Secure from the list, click Redelegate, specify which validator you want to transfer the stake and the size of the stake, then click Next and confirm the transaction.

2021-12-12 19:45:42 Binding commissions to the dollar equivalent

We inform you that Commission Proposal 2.2 reached more than 66.66% of the total power of votes (see). This means that a consensus has been reached among the validators and on December 27, at ~11:47 UTC, the commissions will be updated on the 8 173 094 block.

Initially, 7 days were planned for voting and the validators successfully coped with this, for which we express our great gratitude to them

The next step is to update the services — adding support for payment of commissions with custom coins, taking into account the binding to USDTE.

The request to all developers to update the services (if any) before the block on which the updated commissions will take effect. Open / Comment

2021-12-06 21:54:48 Voting for Minter Network Commission Price (Commission Proposal 2.2)

Minter and Minter Hub were successfuly updated and now it's time to bind the commissions in the Minter network to the USD equivalent, in particular to USDTE, to implement plans for the cost of transfer to $0.01, and trade to $0.03.

Updates will take effect on December 27 at ~11:00 UTC on block 8173094 with the necessary total power of votes (66.66%+).

To get acquainted with the instructions for validators and the full list of changeable parameters in Commission Proposal 2.2, follow the link.

You can track the voting process on this page.

We urge all validators to take an active part in the voting and do it before the selected block. Open / Comment

2021-12-06 16:57:30 Minter Hub has been updated to version 2.0

On Saturday, December 3, at 13:00 UTC, a large-scale update of the Minter Hub network took place. This upgrade reduces fees when making cross-chain transfers, and also simplifies the connection of other blockchain networks.

• The codebase has been completely redesigned to simplify the integration of existing blockchains supporting advanced multisig addresses or smart contracts (for example, Cardano, Solana, Polkadot, Terra, etc.). Now integration will be easier and take much less time.

• Users paid a fairly large fees for cross-chain tranfers from Minter to Ethereum. Now, unused for fees ETH will be returned to the address on the Minter Network as a "cashback".

• Long-awaited integration with Binance Smart Chain. Now you're able to transfer tokens from BSC to Minter and back using the advantages of each of the networks. This will also bring the price of tokens in Minter closer to the market due to new arbitrage situations.

• Cross-chain DeFi. In the new version of Minter Hub, it's now possible to make trades (and not only) in the DeFi services of integrated networks. For example, you can make trades on Uniswap on the Ethereum network without leaving the Minter interface. At the same time, the fee can be paid in "Minter-style" — with any coin.

• Discounts for HUB holders have been activated. The HUB token allows you to reduce the fees of the Minter Hub network when making cross-chain transfers between Minter, Ethereum, BSC and other networks added in the future. As one seed phrase provides access to the wallet in three networks at once (Minter, Ethereum, BSC), then to get a discount, you can hold HUB tokens in any of the networks (or in several at once, they are summed up). The base fee of Minter Hub for cross-chain transfer is 1%.

Discounts for HUB holders:
1 HUB - 10%
2 HUB — 20%
4 HUB — 30%
8 HUB — 40%
16 HUB — 50%
32 HUB — 60%

For example, if you keep 16 HUB on your wallets, then for you the fee for cross-chain transfers will be 50% less than the base, i.e. 0.5%.

• Deposit and withdrawal of ETH and BNB tokens are now performed in native standard, i.e. there will no longer be a have to pre-convert the native standard into the ERC20 or BEP20 standard.

2021-12-06 12:24:11 Minter 2.6. What's new?

On December 1, the long-awaited update of the Minter Network took place. This upgrade increases the decentralization of the blockchain and complements the trade tools through the Minter Console with a familiar and necessary function — limit orders.

• Limit orders allow you to place an order for exchange of tokens at the desired price. You just need to select a token, specify its quantity and set the desired price for triggering a buy or sell order.

• With the upgrade to new version, token burning is now available to each user, not just for its creator. To perform this action, go to the Coiner page, go to the bottom of the page, select a token and specify the amount you want to burn.

• Even more decentralization. In Minter 2.6 the validator's Voice Power has been limited to 20%. This means that if the Voting Power indicator exceeds 20%, then further delegation to this validator is impossible until this value becomes <20. This update will allow to distribute the power of the vote to other validators and increase decentralization of the network. You can track the voice power indicator through the validators page on Chainik, Pie column.

In addition, bugs were fixed and fee for failed transactions was set at $0.01. This also depends on the information in payload and gas price. Open / Comment

2021-10-23 18:33:36 BTC.Secure validator on the #Terra network has reached a stake of ~1.5M LUNA (~$65M).

Since the publication of the last post about Terra, there has been a significant increase in the validator's stake: 185K -> 1.5M LUNA.

We previously wrote that we will gradually, as the size of the stake increases, change the validator's commission and, at the moment, we have already reached a commission value of 5%, as planned at the first stage.

Today we want to inform you that due to the growth of the stake by 8 times, we will continue to increase the commission by 1% per day until the target commission of 10% is reached, which will become permanent and will no longer increase.

All this in order to comply with the highest, world-wide, quality standards and guarantee 100% validation stability in #Terra.

$LUNA staking becomes even more attractive against the background of the launch of the decentralized cross-chain bridge Wormhole V2 and the upcoming expansion of the $UST stablecoin in the Ethereum, BSC and Solana networks, the activity of using which directly affects the growth of the $LUNA price by burning tokens when printing new $UST.

The use of $UST in DeFi of various networks is growing -> the demand for printing new $UST is higher -> more burning of the $LUNA token -> the $LUNA price is growing

$UST is a strong candidate for #1 place among decentralized stablecoins (already ~$2.7B capitalization) and, at this rate, will bypass $DAI soon enough.

2021-10-19 20:11:51 Earlier, we announced 100% guarantee of rewards in #Terra when delegating to the BTC.Secure validator in accordance with the Staking Service Agreement, and, in addition, set 0% validator commission to improve our position in the top.

We are glad to announce that over the past 2 months our position in the top has become stronger, and a huge update Columbus-5 has taken place in the #Terra, which marked the beginning of many new projects in the ecosystem.

#Terra is becoming more popular and is being used by an increasing number of projects, respectively, the requirements for the validator infrastructure are growing. We are seeing the growth of the blockchain database by 14 GB (!) per day since the launch of Columbus-5.

It is important that fast NVMe SSDs are required so that the validator always has time to sign new blocks. These are serious requirements for which the BTC.Secure validator is ready.

After the Columbus-5 update, we invested in improving the validator infrastructure in the #Terra and installed a new productive dedicated server for the validator with 128 GB RAM and with great opportunities to increase the amount of disk space based on fast NVMe SSDs.

Some projects launch airdrops of their tokens for $LUNA stakers, which seriously increases the amount of staking rewards. Projects motivate $LUNA stakers to delegate to small validators, as well as to those with a commission above 0%. All of this for better decentralization.

The more projects in the Terra ecosystem that are used, the higher the responsibility of validators for the reliability and speed of the network. We, as a reliability-oriented validator, contribute to the success of each $LUNA token owner.

And we urge other validators to invest in high-quality infrastructure, as well as to set a commission above 0%, which will allow paying for the reliable infrastructure of the validator and the work of professionals who maintain and develop it.

The load will continue to grow, and we must be ready for this, so that every user will be pleasantly surprised by the speed and stability of services in the Terra ecosystem. It makes sense for $LUNA stakers with long-term interests to support reliable validators.

BTC.Secure still 100% guarantees of rewards for $LUNA stakers.

In order to maintain the current stability and continue to improve it, we will gradually, as the stake increases, change the validator commission by no more than 1% per day.

This week the commission will be 5%.

Thanks to the most stable and reliable infrastructure of the BTC.Secure, we with our delegators, will further strengthen the reliability of the #Terra, which is important to every who expects a long-term increase in the value of the network and the price of the $LUNA.

Improve the decentralization of #Terra by delegating $LUNA tokens to the BTC.Secure with 100% guarantee of rewards.

We validate the #Terra since the genesis and have actually shown the highest level of stability.

2021-08-16 17:59:22 BTC.Secure achieved the max staking return for delegators among all validators in #Terra.

We will be grateful for delegating to our validator with 0% commission and 100% rewards guarantee. We have been successfully validating Terra since the genesis and never jailed.

Improve the decentralization of Terra with the most stable validator. This’s the best deal for $LUNA staking right now.
