Good afternoon, @everyone! While people are busy at Denver and Beetle isn’t looking, we’re sneaking in another off-cycle mini release! As mentioned during the AMA, we are dropping a little update for Duels to make it quicker and easier to fight multiple duels at a time, with the addition of a new fight button up top. This goes well with the ability to select up to ten entries when entering a lobby. Note that larger duels such as Squad and Warr do use more gas on the chain, and there is a limit to the amount of gas that can fit into a single block, so while you can fight up to 10 Solo duels at a time in a single transaction, you can only do 5 Squad duels and 3 Warr duels at a time on DFK Chain. Klaytn has even tighter restrictions due to the 1 second finality, so the limits are tighter there as well, with 5 Solo, 2 Squad, and 1 Warr possible at a time. We’re working more on optimizing the gas usage there to try and get those numbers up. Many other tweaks were made such as showing how many times a duel entry has been matched, displaying duel results via pagination, and other QoL tweaks. For you builders out there, there is a new method called completeDuels(count) that you can call to take advantage of this method. Thanks everyone and happy dueling!

on behalf of the Dude of Better and the T-Rex of Typicool: Oh look, a bonus release this week! We’ve been talking about the Gardens UI overhaul for a while now and it’s finally time to send it out into the world. Gardens UI Overhaul On top of the improved and site-wide consistent design, this update also moves all functionality from sub-pages into a more central location in the Gardens. The Druid in Crystalvale has also moved permanently to the Gardens zone, where he can more closely monitor the seeds that he sells. Trader Price Charts In addition to the Gardens improvements, we’re also excited to announce an official in-game integration of the RBL Terminal in our Trader screen. Now you can see at a glance the USD price of almost any single token or a comparison between two selected tokens. We’re excited to offer this information directly in our interface and hope it helps inform your future trades! This window will be available after a hard refresh when opening the Trader and can be minimized. Your preference will persist through hard refreshes. That’s all for now. Have a great weekend and good questing!

DFK Duel Season 3 has begun! To see what great changes we've made to Season 3: https://t.co/QHxSWSFwM5 Happy Dueling!

Bug Fixes Users no longer need to approve Pages of the Eternal Story for transferring to other users and only once for bridging any Pages. Coming Up As per usual, here’s a select list of items that are currently progressing with various departments across the team (again, this list is not in any particular order and doesn’t represent all items being worked on). And remember, you can keep tabs on our progress with most of these items in our shared spreadsheet. - PVP combat and integration - Gardens UI rework - In-game Chat - Profile Achievements - Pet-feeding Power-Up - Level 10 Profession quests / Pet feeding and utility - Green Egg Pet Art, Lore, and Code 🐇 Thanks again for being such a fantastic community and for your ongoing support! Godspeed and good dueling!

Level 10 Fishing Quest! Level 10 Foraging Quest! Gardening Pets (Green Egg Hatching)! Pet Equipment, Pet Utility and Pet Feeding! More Power-Ups! And for our more code interested community members: the upgrade of our Quest Core to the EIP-2535 Diamond Standard! Our next major quest-related release is stacked with new features so we prepared a spreadsheet for everyone to track where we're at with the development. Similar as with the spreadsheet for Serendale relaunch on Klaytn, as soon as all items are marked as "Launch Ready" we'll be looking at releasing the patch at the next best opportunity. Here's the link to the spreadsheet: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1RA_p8IYnJSdzsfEosE6JBCYJrVysKLbDlJmjB1Jgmw4/edit#gid=0 And don't worry, we have a few other things in the works in the meantime...

@everyone Good release day, Kingdom! Lo and behold, we’ve got another fantastic update coming your way this week (I can hardly believe it either, honestly). The big, bold headline this week is Deferred Fee payments. Check out the details below! Deferred Fee Payments When participating in select activities, you can now opt to defer the associated fee for that game feature by using the locked token structure, which unlocks tokens according to a preset schedule for access at a later date. In order to access this option, players opt to burn 3x the cost of the selected feature in locked tokens in addition to the base fee, which follows normal fee distributions (Jeweler, Quest Fund, Development, Token Burn). These standard distributions will remain locked according to the unlocking schedule of the realm. Here are the features that now support this payment structure: - Summoning Heroes (only allows one summon every 72 hours per chain with deferred fees and does not cover Hiring fees) - Dark Summoning Heroes - Leveling Heroes - Hatching Pet Eggs Additional features may be eligible for Deferred Fee Payment in the future. Check out additional details on this and Token Offerings in the linked article: https://medium.com/@defikingdoms/feature-release-deferred-fees-token-offerings-9415ea7ef34c Token Offerings Next time you stumble across the Meditation Circle outside Crystalvale, you may notice a new and rather… unique face that has taken up residence in that sacred place. Glut the Furnace has sprouted or scraped his way to the surface to offer the dwellers there a bargain: blessings from the Great Undertree in exchange for Token Offerings. Token Offerings provide the chance to win a random rotation of Blessings, which include items from Enhancement Stones to even Gen0 Hero Crystals! At any given time, there are ten active Blessings with an open Offering period of 26 hours, along with a Gen0 Hero Crystal Blessing with an open Offering period of two weeks. The price for a single Offering starts at 1 CRYSTAL and increases over time at a rate of 0.125 CRYSTAL per Offering, after every fifth of the total duration passes (every 5.2 hours for the 26-hour Blessings, and 67.2 hours for Gen0 Blessings) until the end of the Offering period. A winner will be selected after the Offering period ends. 75% of all Offerings will be burned and the remaining amount will be transferred to the Quest Fund. Token offerings are unique in that they allow players to utilize their locked token balance as Offering fees at the same rate as their unlocked token balance. A single Offering, therefore, costs the same regardless of whether the player users the Default or Deferred Fee Structure. The Great Undertree desires your offerings and just might reward you in kind! Only time will tell. New Features - Better caching for user Heroes Coming Up As per usual, here’s a select list of items that are currently progressing with various departments across the team (again, this list is not in any particular order and doesn’t represent all items being worked on). - PVP combat and integration - Gardens UI rework - In-game Chat - Profile Achievements - Pet-feeding Power-Up - Level 10 Profession quests / Pet feeding and utility - Green Egg Pet Art, Lore, and Code 🐇 As always, we’re beyond appreciative for such an amazing community!

Hey @everyone, we're going to be upgrading the MeditationCircle smart contract to a Diamond over the next hour. There is a chance you see some brief downtown on that contract, but it shouldn't last more than a few minutes. Thank you!

Oh look, a wild mini-patch appears! In keeping with our new laissez-faire release schedule, we’re getting some quality of life improvements in your hands now instead of making you wait until later! Here’s a short list of the updates you can check out now: - Added Perilous Journey filters to the Hero Hub. Show any survivors in your personal Hero view or check out the long list of those who perished at sea in the Hero Catalog. - Added Dark Summoned filter to the Hero Hub. Check out all the Heroes borne of dark sacrifice. - Performance improvements to the Hero Hub when selecting Heroes for questing. - Browser will remember your selections when closing the filter menu in the Hero Hub or toggling off Hero animations and persist it between screens and refreshes. - Added a dropdown in the Meditation Circle to auto-populate stats based on a set of predefined options (defaults to manual selection) that will persist in the browser between refreshes if toggled. These options are not meant to be recommendations or “best paths” for leveling. They are just available options based on the Hero's stats and stat growth. - Confirmation modals prior to sending or bridging Heroes with active Power-Ups that allow the user to cancel all Power-Ups for that Hero with a single button. - Increase the max width of the Hero Hub to show up to six Heroes across on larger monitors. Thanks for being an awesome community! Godspeed and good weekend-ing!

https://medium.com/@dfkujo/supraoracles-x-defikingdoms-talk-january-31-2023-aba53b3ea158

@everyone Hello! We mentioned in our AMAs a couple times that we wanted to have a vote for opinions only on how we should proceed with opening DFKChain. That vote is now live for the next ~47 hours at https://vote.defikingdoms.com/#/proposal/0x2e46c755df22198fb6894b21f0c98bc6a0c92d958d30078dd7bc15933c7b45fa! Some background info: The speed, efficiency, and cost of a blockchain are all impacted by the amount of data that is written to the chain. In itself, a project or smart contract being launched on the chain will not have a significant impact on the chain. However, it is possible for malicious actors to write a smart contract with the only purpose of continuously storing data onto the chain, in order to have a negative impact. As DFKChain is set up right now, we have very low gas fees and high throughput, which could make it very efficient and cheap for an individual with ill intent to launch contracts of that nature if we do not have protections in place. Right now, that protection is our allowlist, where individuals must apply and meet with the Kingdom Studios team before we would agree to give their wallet permissions to launch contracts on DFKChain. With the allowlist, it is an all-or-nothing setup. Once a wallet has allowlist permissions, they can be revoked, but it would not change what had already been deployed. Therefore, even that is not foolproof, as someone could be looking to launch their contracts, get allowlist permissions, and then launch malicious contracts instead. Additionally, it is not decentralized, as we maintain control over who has permissions to launch contracts. As we have said before, we want to have DFKChain be an open chain, where builders are able to come and have the freedom to launch their projects and improve the ecosystem, but we want to ensure that the ecosystem is also protected, which brings us here. We have brainstormed a few possible options for maximizing openness and protection, and we want your feedback. We have opened a ranked choice vote on snapshot.org, our usual voting site, where you, our community, can weigh in with your opinions on the options below. Additionally, we have opened https://talk.defikingdoms.com/contribute/opening-dfk-chain-rfc-feedback/, where you can submit additional ideas. THIS IS A REQUEST FOR COMMENT VOTE, AND IS NOT BINDING. This is still in the brainstorming phase, so we are looking for input. The results of this vote do not dictate the course that will be taken, and indeed, we may have follow up votes as we narrow down these options or even add additional options. If you do have an idea that you think could be a solution, please let us know on the talk site. Our current internal leanings are toward Option 5, to have an automatic allowlist process that includes a Terms of Service and allows our community, through governance, to remove bad actors and their data. This would first require a breach of the Terms of Service, so those following them would be in no danger. However, this preferred route could change as other options come to light and are considered.

Happy Friday! We are aware that there is an issue with DFKChain and we are already working on it, in conjunction with Avalabs. We are needing to upgrade a couple of our validators in order to get things running smoothly again, which we are in the process of now! We'll be back shortly with an update, but we don't expect this to be a long process.

https://medium.com/@dfkujo/defi-kingdoms-ama-january-26-457d3b0acf9

As mentioned earlier, we are doing some contract updates, which we are nearing completion on. They did take a bit longer than anticipated and we appreciate your patience! Additionally, we wanted to give a heads up that we have changed Fishing and Foraging in Serendale (Only Serendale and only Fishing and Foraging) to a maximum of 5 Heroes and 5 Attempts. We have already made the contract change and the front-end will be following shortly. This change is in order to accommodate Power-Ups while remaining within the computation limits to meet Klaytn 1 second block speed. We will be releasing Power-Ups potentially tomorrow as we finish testing!! As mentioned in todays AMA, which can be found on YouTube, we are actively working with the Klaytn team to find solutions for reducing the necessary restrictions, which could allow us to increase these maximums again.

https://twitter.com/0xWorkhorse/status/1618770281237217280

In preparation for our next feature release we're going to do a scheduled upgrade to some of our contracts today. We will start deploying those around 4pm EST and it will take about 1 hour. During this time you may experience some Questing and Hero Auction transactions reverting / not opening MetaMask confirmation popups (starting/completing quests, listing/delisting Heroes etc.). Once the upgrades are completed, everything should be back to normal.

Thank you all for your patience! Here is the entry list for the merch Social Media Giveaway! Reminder, we will be doing that drawing, along with the Consolation Giveaway, tomorrow at 9pm EST (27 hours and 15 minutes from now) (link to come tomorrow) https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1hfxaTmUahU0OWLckOpWseiLycFAbIhKSSZRw8kMWZfI/edit?usp=sharing

Our RPC on Klaytn is experiencing some issues currently. We are investigating and have reached out to our partner, Liquify, as well. This RPC delay is also temporarily impacting our API, so some Hero statuses (Leveling, Questing, etc) may not be updating properly. We ask for your patience while we get this resolved. In the meantime, you can switch to the POKT RPC for Klaytn, however, that will not resolve the impacts from the API delay. Settings for that are below or you can send !klay-pokt in any channel in the server and you will get a DM from @Matoya with the settings!

Come and meet.....The Warrior! We will not be showing animations so we don't distract from the development process, however, skill list and background are below and in the attached medium! https://t.co/T3mVDUVEsU @wsdmlabs @0xWorkhorse @0xAdin
