We are releasing a new version of the Sela Network Node App: v0.2.0.
This update is a major step for:
- More accurate and fair Sela Points distribution
- Stronger protection against invalid or low-quality data
- Preparing for new features like search-based tasks and richer campaign data
To keep the network healthy, all node operators must upgrade to v0.2.0.
nodes running older versions will: No longer be able to connect to the Sela Network, and Stop earning Sela Points
Improvements in v0.2.0 This version focuses on data quality, reliability, and future features:
- More reliable campaign and rewards data The node now has a stronger understanding of where and how it is running, which helps us filter out invalid or abusive traffic and reward real contributors more accurately.
- Stronger verification of connected Twitter accounts We have reinforced the checks around Twitter account status so that rewards are tied to valid, healthy accounts instead of broken or misconfigured ones.
- Better compatibility and stability across devices and OS The app handles different device/OS environments more robustly, reducing edge cases where nodes silently fail or stop contributing.
- Foundation for new features such as search-powered tasks v0.2.0 lays the groundwork for Google Search–based tasks and other new campaign types, which will open more earning opportunities for node operators.
