Integritee at Polkadot Decoded 2024
Last month, Integritee’s co-founders, Alain Brenzikofer, and Waldemar Scherer, were in Brussels attending this year’s Polkadot Decoded. Besides connecting with fellow developers and innovators, we took the stage to present Incognitee, our ongoing project where privacy is key. Several people showed interest and asked for more details regarding the technology.

If you were unable to watch Alain’s talk live, don’t miss the recording.

Incognitee Bug Bounty Update
Last month, an experienced white-hat hacker found a low-severity weakness in one of our repositories linked to the remote attestation feature. There is a denial of service issue in a remote attestation client TLS message parser in the following GitHub repo. The detection of this issue was awarded with $1,000 in TEER and will be fixed by our experts.

Unpermissioned Collators Update
One month ago, we launched a collator campaign to incentivize external operators to establish an unpermissioned operation of the Integritee Network funded by the Integritee Treasury. Within a couple of days, the first collators started to operate independently.

Currently, the minimum TEER required to be considered an active collator is 976 TEER. Check the documentation and run your first Integritee Network collator!

Incognitee Test Wallet on Paseo
Incognitee is a solution designed to transfer digital assets privately. We’ve also launched a test wallet on Paseo for everyone to try out. If you’re eager to experience it firsthand, don’t hesitate to click here and learn how Incognitee works, and why it is relevant.

Polkadot Treasury: Proposals Ongoing
We are urging DOT holders to vote for our two ongoing Polkadot treasury proposals. #997 aims to retroactively back the work of building Incognitee, and #998 is intended to further the development of this innovative, privacy-preserving solution. If you want to see Incognitee thrive, don’t hesitate to cast your vote!

Incognitee:

Design of a dashboard to cover different categories and functionalities additional to the wallet
Start development of the dashboard

For all details, check our repository.

What’s Ahead

Incognitee: Next Steps
After successfully conducting the first Incognitee user testing campaign, launching the bug bounty campaign, and also the first beta wallet to be used by everyone to securely execute private transfers on Paseo, we are continuously working towards production readiness. In the meantime, we will launch new user campaigns to test things out and engage with our community.

Tech updates
