Launch of Antioch

Antioch was launched as a new chain on the 7th of April 2021, after a chain split bug resulted in the "fall" of Babylon (broken link).

Migration

A lot of the state and "history" was migrated from Babylon:

• All memberships (as of block #2718912)
• Most balances* (as of block #2528244):
  • all those associated with a membership root or controller
  • all tokens staked for Council Members and their voters, but as "free" balance
  • all tokens staked for (as "free" balance), and the balance of the "role" key of, active Content Curators and Storage Providers
  • all tokens staked in Proposals
  • all tokens staked for Validators and Nominators, although slashed tokens was deducted
  • all accounts that had been used for balance transfers (sent or received) after block #1292266
• The Forum (as of block #2718912)
• Old Proposals history and discussions, although only in "viewable" in Pioneer
• The Fiat Pool

*

• The Total Issuance at the snapshot was: 442442844 tJOY
• The Total Exported Issuance was: 440615492 tJOY
• "Lost" tokens: 1827352 tJOY ~ 0.41%

If some of your tokens were "lost" in the transfer, you can "claim" these until the end of April 2021.

Changes

After the upgrade, all roles, e.g. Validators, Storage Providers and Curators were fired from their position. The Council that was elected prior to the chain split was set by sudo for the first term.

Some parameter changes were made, mostly related to the Council Election.
