Announcement: DPIN Increases Valid Node Certification Standard to 500 BLC

Dear DPIN Community Members,

During the 2025 Global DPIN Launch Summit & AI+DePIN Forum | Hong Kong, following extensive discussions and community consensus, a proposal has been made to further optimize the effective node standards by removing the 100 BLC and 500 BLC effective node qualifications.

Based on community discussions, it is proposed that the 100 BLC effective node qualification be removed starting April 8, 2025, with a plan to remove the 500 BLC qualification in the third month (May).

After a thorough evaluation by the DPIN Foundation, considering network stability and long-term strategic development, the final decision has been made to remove the 100 BLC effective node qualification from April 8 while retaining the 500 BLC qualification.

Details are as follows:

• Staking Rewards Unchanged: The staking rewards for 100 BLC remain unchanged, but users must upgrade to 500 BLC to continue enjoying node community airdrop rewards.

• Qualification Adjustment Plan: Existing 100 BLC node users can upgrade to 500 BLC to retain their effective node community benefits and ensure continued node privileges.

The DPIN Foundation remains committed to providing a high-quality ecosystem for all community members. Thank you for your understanding and support! If you have any questions, please feel free to contact us through official channels.
