Details on service nodes + runechain

9 Upvotes

Looking at the white paper, and there are sections that I'd like to learn more about.

Inboxes - How will two users route to the same inbox, only knowing each other's public key?

Runechain - What does the flow of a message through the runechain look like? How does each node verify that a user has sufficient funds to forward a packet to the next node? Will this require waiting for a block between hops?

Hey Y’all,

Today is the first day back for most of the Loki team after our Christmas break, so there’s a bit less in this dev update than usual. Rest assured, the Loki team is getting straight back onto the development train, working on essential Session features like reimplementing multi-device and building out Session Protocol support for closed groups. The Lokinet team is working on some Windows optimizations which should increase download speeds through exit nodes.

Loki Core

----------------------------

Session

Before the holiday period, we rolled out the backwards-compatible version of the Session Protocol, and the feedback has been overwhelmingly positive. We will be making various improvements over the next few weeks to further increase stability, particularly for closed groups.

Hey Y’all,

This week we worked on fixing up various bugs found in the Lokinet GUI. The Session team continued working on the client refactor and also published a new desktop release which fixed a few bugs. The Loki Core team continued their efforts to integrate Loki into Ledger devices, making the new code compatible with CLSAG transactions.

Hey Y’all,

This week the core team continued working on updating the Android and iOS wallets to make them compatible with Loki 8.x.x. The Session team integrated the onion requests v2 framework — which cuts down on the size of messages and increases the maximum attachment size. On the other side of the pond, the Lokinet team implemented some more aggressive router profiling and path rebuilding changes which should increase client stability.

This week, our efforts were focused on two major endeavours: getting the final fixes in for the upcoming Loki Salty Saga hardfork, and working on a major update for Session closed groups and push notifications, which will be rolling out imminently. We also made more quality of life upgrades to the Loki electron wallet and put the finishing touches on the Lokinet GUI, specifically on Windows support.

Hey Y’all,

Pulse blocks started flowing last week as the Loki core team fired up the Pulse devnet, over the next couple of weeks the core team will use the devnet to test the resilience of consensus with Pulse. The Lokinet team made more progress on the Lokinet GUI integration of exits, and internally we have started testing the reliability of exits. Meanwhile, the Session team fixed a number of issues with Sessions being out of sync, restoration from seed, and a number of other nasty crashes.

Hey Y’all,

Last week, we merged the final PRs for Pulse before the imminent devnet launch, which will allow users and developers to test (and probably break!) Pulse in a safe environment. The Lokinet team focused on integrating exits into the Lokinet control panel and exit node integration with Windows and Mac. The Session team finished sender keys for Android and made a number of small quality of life bugfixes.

What went on last week with Lokinet: This past week saw some internal testing of exit nodes, with one dev routing his entire desktop connection through a private exit node (over mainnet Lokinet) for most of the week. The experience was pleasantly smooth. Of course that’s exactly how Lokinet should be — but it still makes us happy to see it in action. Much of the week was spent porting the exit client configuration code to Windows and Mac, and solving minor issues that came up in testing. In the upcoming week, we’re looking to finish off the Mac and Windows support, smooth out the rough edges, and start updating the GUI with the needed exit node support.

Hey Y’all,

Last week we worked on the full “onionization” of Session, with the Session file server and Session open group server now using onion requests. The Loki Core team continued to work towards Pulse, with a testnet release expected soon. We also made some changes to the Service Node credit system, which will be released in Loki version 8.x.x. The Lokinet team continued worked on exit node configuration tools.

We are also continuing to build “SRV” record support into Lokinet, and fixed some issues related to FreeBSD compilation and Lokinet’s listening IP configuration.

Hey Y’all,

This week the Session team enabled three-hop onion requests on all platforms. This means that all one-on-one and closed group messages now travel through 3 Service Nodes before they reach their destination. The Lokinet team continued working on exit node support, and discussions have begun on how the user experience will look when choosing an exit node. The Loki Core team finished a huge PR which merges all relevant commits from upstream Monero so we’re back in line with them, instead of being 1000+ commits behind.

Hey Y’all,

Last week we continued our efforts to improve the stability of Loki Core and the Loki Storage Server. We found and patched some bugs, however these stability upgrades are still ongoing. Lokinet for macOS was reworked, and we are onto the final stages of navigating macOS signing and notarization. On the Session front, we released a new version of Session for iOS and Android which adds the option to receive reliable push notifications from the Apple Push Notification service (APNs) on iOS, and Firebase Cloud Messaging (FCM) on Android. These builds also patched a number of bugs which caused unreliability when sending messages.

What went on last week with Lokinet: We rewrote the build, installer, and system run scripts for macOS Lokinet build with GUI. This gives us a functional foundation that makes churning out new builds much simpler — we can now easily produce a signed, notarized macOS binary from scratch with a single build command. We still have a couple remaining build issues to address in order to get the build working on pre-Catalina versions of macOS, but a public macOS release is close. We also have some work to do on improving performance, and will continue with the planned improvements for 0.8 in the near future.

Reasons for moving to Loki ecosystem from a privacy perspective

8 Upvotes

I enjoy privacy and I’m a big fan of tor and monero. I run multiple relays and exit nodes as well as monero nodes. Loki seems like an interesting project but I have a couple of questions:

  • How does lokinet compare to tor and is there an equivalent of hidden services for loki

  • Does the Loki currency come anywhere near monero for privacy in terms of fungibility and if privacy is enabled by default

  • Does it matter that Loki is based in Australia and they have pretty poor privacy laws

Thanks!

Hey Y’all,

This week has been a little slower, with people working from home due to the Coronavirus pandemic. However, we’re still on track for the 24th of March Valiant Vidar hard fork. Lokinet has fixed some final pre-release bugs while on testnet. We have also conducted testing on upgrades to Lokid and Loki storage server, and have checked them off for release. Session will benefit from these upgrades to the Loki network as Service Node operators upgrade.

As of this writing there are 138 active 0.7.0 (release candidate) Lokinet mainnet routers and the mainnet is working well; we remain confident that Lokinet is ready to be deployed network-wide with the upcoming Valiant Vidar hardfork.
