Starting update of my Hive witness to the Hard Fork v1.28.0. No more declining vote power.

Another day with over ten thousand steps. Achieved by a small walk with my wife and house chores that included vacuuming the car and installing new all weather floor mats.

At work it was a busy day with lots of work and I have achieved everything that I set out to do.

Today I realized that hard fork software for witness nodes is already available. I saw that a couple witnesses are already running it.

I downloaded the hardfork version of witness software which is v1.28.0 and after playing with settings was able to start it.

It needs a full replay of Hive blockchain starting in April of 2016, which is basically before Hive became Hive. The replay is going fairly slow in about six hours I was able to replay it until 2018 only.

I have paused the replay for now and switched back over into the witness mode of v 1.27.11. But at some point I will probably disable my witness and let it run for a couple days.

Theoretically if it does 1.5 years in six hours, then it will probably take about 28 more hours to finish the replay if it goes at the same rate. Or about 34 hours for a full blockchain replay, which is about what I have heard that it takes.

Or I might keep switching between the two modes, which should take about a week. Considering that the hard fork is scheduled for November 19, I have plenty of time.

Hive have been falling today, it almost retested the low from October 22nd when it was basically at thirteen cents.

Hopefully it will bounce off thirteen cents and will go higher towards fourteen cents or it will go below thirteen cents and will look for a new lower level to trade at.

Did you know that starting with Hard Fork 28 the way you curate content will change?

After November 19, you will always upvote with the same vote power until you simply run out of votes. Right now if you upvote at 100% starting with 100% vote power you will have 98% vote power left that is changing...

Now your vote power will stay at 100% But you will be limited on how many upvotes you can do per day.

I think that is the biggest change in Hardfork 28.

Do you have a list of all the changes? Also the number of votes if fixed for everyone or depends on how many hp you got?

The number of votes is still fixed at 10 full power votes. But you can split them to say 100 10% votes. This is to make voting easier / more efficient. The rest of the changes are not really that important for users:

Oh, I hope the gui will add some counter or something to handle that change and keep track of the votes given

Oh really? What is the number of votes that they are changing to? Is there some kind of interface for all of this that you can see how much it has replayed?

Same number just no declining voting power :) 10 at 100% per 24 hours

Yes, there is an interface, but in form of a log that is not really showing how much has replayed, just projections that I can make based on how fast I am progressing through the dates, it looks like this:

Okay, cool. Are people still going to be able to adjust their voting power or will it not really matter at all?

Yes you will be able to adjust the voting power like you do now.

Oh, okay, so if you cut it down to like 10 percent does that effectively give you 100 votes per day?

Can you explain how many votes we will be able to do?

The number of votes stays the same per 24 hours.

Right now if you are voting in the same minute and start with full power 100%:
Vote 1 - Voting Power 100% Voting Weight 100%
Vote 2 - Voting Power 98% Voting Weight 100%
...
Vote 10 - Voting Power approximately 80% and you should stop voting

After Hard Fork 28:
Vote 1 - Voting Power 100% Voting Weight 100%
Vote 2 - Voting Power 100% Voting Weight 100%
...
Vote 10 - Voting Power 100% and you ran out of votes for 24 hours

Now your vote power will stay at 100% But you will be limited on how many upvotes you can do per day.

That's interesting. I am not aware of this!

So, the witnesses agreed on this?

What benefits it would bring on the platform?

Consensus witnesses (top 20) agreed on this, all other witnesses do not decide anything...
Supposedly simplification is the main benefit on the platform. Basically right now in order to maximize your curation rewards you need to vote about every two hours and keep your voting power around 100%. Only bots can do that, after the hard fork it will not be an issue, bot advantage eliminated.
