Technical part.

An update for devnet will be released this week.

Move vs Solidity as a defense against hacks. If something should not be copied, it can be implemented. There are also several kinds of checks, which increases security.

Onchain governance. Everyone with enough stake will be able to make a proposal. There will be hash, votes, forum links (why this proposal is valid).

More on-chain data, instead of off-chain.
AIT2
-
There were a few fixes, bandwidth improvements.
-
Proposal means you got picked.
-
There may be a large number of votes, but not 100% participation. The reason may be due to bandwidth, latency, when you set up your node and its stability.
-
They will look at the data at the beginning of the testnet and at the end.
-
There will be an algorithm that encourages the behavior they want in terms of location.
-
The number of proposals may depend on the hardware, network speed, location and other indicators.
-
There are nodes in unpopular locations that do a good job.
