Launch of Alexandria

Alexandria was launched as a new chain on the 21st of September 2020, effectively deprecating Constantinople.

Migration

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

• All memberships
• Most balances*:
  • 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 were deducted
• The Forum
• Old Proposals history and discussions, although only "viewable" in Pioneer
• All Channels and content
• The Fiat Pool

*

• The Total Issuance at the snapshot was: 154289593 tJOY
• The Total Exported Issuance was: 140539804 tJOY
• "Lost" tokens: 13749789 tJOY

If some of your tokens were "lost" in the transfer, you can "claim" these until the end of September 2020.

Changes

After the upgrade, all roles, e.g. Validators, Storage Providers, Council Members and Curators were fired from their position.

In addition, the old KPI scheme was replaced by Council KPIs and Community Bounties.
