Taofold v2.1.1

This update includes the following changes from #363 :

• Fix the reward loop in neurons/validator.py and add error handling.
• Refactor the Protein() class to use absolute paths for file handling.
• Add a new parameter to the run_step() method in folding/validators/forward.py to avoid unnecessary processing done by the validator. Carry over this parameter to neurons/validator.py in the forward() method.
• Decrease the epoch length for weight setting from 300 blocks to 150.
• Maintain the ordering of the events for rewarding in get_energies() from folding/validators/reward.py

Taofold V1.4.6

Taofold 1.4.6 is released 🎉

This update is mostly for decreasing volatility of V-trust in the network. We are increasing the epoch length to 300 blocks. We are increasing the threshold of error allowed in the state-checkpoint check to 2% and we are lowering the severity of the punishment of failing the state-checkpoint check from 0 rewards to 0.5 rewards.

Important note
In this update we are also adding new utility functions for miners in anticipation for the global job pool release.

• We have added a script called start_read_node.sh that will start a read node that connects to the global job pool.
  • This will make a local copy of the global job pool and update it automatically.
• We have scripts to allow you to query this database called query_rqlite.py

Please get accustomed to these scripts as they will be very useful in the future.

Taofold V1.4.5

What's Changed

• Features/remove miner serving by @mccrindlebrian in #332

Full Changelog: v1.4.4...v1.4.5

TaoFold v1.4.4

Preventative measure for checkpoint file validation:

• Check miner energies based on position and velocity.
• If these diverge from submitted checkpoint file energies, reward is set to 0.

TaoFold v1.4.2

Major change:

1. Any malicious keys should be set to 0 incentive.
2. All submissions to a job should be unique. If they are not, all non-unique miners will receive 0 incentive.

TaoFold v1.4.1

This release includes:

• Additional tests for s3 functionality.
• Updates to get_epistula_body logic to ensure Global Job Pool updates are interpreted correctly.
• Black formatting for the whole repository with an update to increase the line length parameter.
• validator blacklisting for maliciously acting coldkeys

TaoFold v1.4.0

The second major integration of components of the Global Job Pool (GJP), focusing mainly on adding files to S3 buckets.

• Validators can now update jobs on the fly to the GJP using a new job_id. #301
• Include the final checkpoints for all miner submissions into S3 so miners can access them. #306
• Include S3 integration into the GJP flow to upload files #304

TaoFold v1.3.4

• Removal of PingSynapse implying random sampling of all miners.
• Remove the use of miner_serving flag, i.e. miners cannot opt-out of jobs.

TaoFold v1.3.3

• Fix mass-setting exploit in miner returned proteins.
• New validators should weight copy on startup if they have no weights. This gives them a warm start
