We are always looking for ways to ensure we have a platform that is as resilient as possible in today’s climate of uncertainty. Currently the Libertas Vox database is migrating to SQL, which will allow us to spin up dedicated co-located servers quickly and reliably, as and when needed, to ensure an uninterrupted service. This will prevent Libertas from suffering the same fate that other social media platforms have incurred.
In the coming weeks we are going to make our Testnet available to all members of the community who wish to participate in the testing of the Tipping and Staking functionalities.
A small taster of our testing efforts can be seen here:
For testing purposes you can currently see both the staking and the tipping functionalities…
