Holo

When builders show up.

The EdgeNode community grew 30% in one day. No marketing push. No announcement campaign. Real people learning the platform, getting their infrastructure running, joining the support channel because EdgeNodes solve a problem they actually have.

That is how you know infrastructure is working. Not because someone says it is. Because real developers and operators show up and start building with it.

Holo Hosting EdgeNodes. For builders who want ownership and control

Moss Vines just made it possible to bring your Discord conversation history into a community-owned alternative.

Version 1.26 is out with Discord chat import. Moss Vines is a group chat tool built on Holochain and part of the broader ecosystem of apps that run on the distributed web. Export your Discord history and carry it forward somewhere you actually own.

If you've been watching the Holochain ecosystem grow, this is the kind of update worth sharing. Real software, shipping real features for real communities.

Something genuinely exciting is happening in our community right now.

Members are figuring out how to run Holo Edge Nodes on Android devices, and they're documenting everything as they go. Tutorials, tips, workarounds, and troubleshooting. The knowledge base is growing quickly, built entirely by people sharing what they've learned.

There's a dedicated Telegram group where all of this is happening: 👉 https://t.me/+ayxU6f69qW1iOWJk

Both x86 and ARM architecture are supported, so a wide range of hardware can run a node, including Android devices.

If you have an Android device and want to put it to work on something meaningful, this community is the place to start. And if you're just curious to see what people are building, it's a great follow.

🇹🇷 A message for our Turkish Community:

We know that the recent Discord ban in Turkey has disrupted how many of you communicate, organize, and hang out.

As the largest demographic of HOT holders in the world, we want to remind you that we have you in mind and the tools to bypass centralized gatekeepers are already here.

Moss is free, fully localized in Turkish, and includes Vines—a peer-to-peer chat application that operates without a central server. No corporation can ban it. No firewall can easily silence it.

Download it, share the code with your friends, and take your digital spaces back. 👉

Moss - Peer-to-peer groupware for collective impact Big Tech controls your group space, tracks your activity, watches your conversations, holds your files and can cut you off whenever they want.

Come hang out in our P2P Community space! 🍃

We are practicing what we preach and "dogfooding" our own ecosystem apps. We've created a public Holo Community group inside Moss.

You don't need to run an Edge Node to use Moss (it's a free app available for any OS). You just need the invite code to join the specific group.

Weekend Project? 🛠️

If you are setting up your Holo Edge Node this weekend, remember that the best tech support is peer-to-peer! If you hit a roadblock, ask the community in our Telegram or Forum.

We are seeing amazing organic help emerging between Hosts.

P.S. If you aren't a technical wizard yet, don't worry. We are building smoother, non-technical onramps for the future. You are still early!

Want to know why we keep talking about "Wind Tunnels"? 🌪️

The Happenings Community just wrote a fantastic article explaining exactly how and why we are stress-testing the Holochain network using Edge Nodes.

It's a great, easy-to-understand read about the future of the internet. Check it out before you head into the weekend!

Wind Tunnel: Testing Holochain at Scale How do you test a peer-to-peer network before the peers show up?

Help us break the network (for science). 🧪

We are looking for 20 more volunteers to add their Edge Nodes to our "Wind Tunnel" stress test.

Not sure how to join? We made a video guide just for you. Watch the steps, fire up your node, and help us push the future of the web to its limits.

Regulation isn't a dirty word. 🏛️

In fact, regulation only matters when you are building something real enough to touch the everyday economy.

We’ve always said Holo is a bridge between the crypto world and the mainstream. Today, we’re sharing a deep dive into what that means for compliance, the future of $HOT, and why we are embracing this new phase of industry maturity.

If you want to understand the long-term vision, this is the read of the month.
