Symbiont{s} | Ecosynthesizer | Minor Upgrade (General improvements)

Greetings!

We have been working lately on some improvements that we thought are necessary, especially after that the last Blurt hard fork that introduced new concepts and tweaked others. We also used this chance to implement a few things that were requested before, in addition to a few other things that might not be apparent immediately but could be helpful in certain circumstances. So without no further ado, below is a simple rundown of the changes.

More information on the main page

^{https://ecosynthesizer.com/blurt}

1- Proposal fee.
2- Inflation percentage.
3- BP APR.
4- Power Down.
5- Chain configuration table.
6- Chain property table.

More filtering options on the account page

1- "decline_voting_rights".

2- "account_witness_proxy".

3-"witness_set_properties".

4- "report_over_production".

5- "change_recovery_account".

• Some operations were never used on Blurt such as "report_over_production" since it was disabled in HF04 on Steem, but we decided to include it nonetheless, and hope that the issue that caused the operation to be disabled could be solved one day on Blurt to several penalize double signers.

1- Added the proposal fee parameter.

2- Added a block decay indicator for the top 20.

• We have obviously exaggerated the penalty for testing purposes. We also only tied the penalty to the top 20 for performance purposes. For the above example, if a top 20 witness is 10 blocks behind the head block, the account will be highlighted. The goal here is to just facilitate the detection of witnesses at the top who are heavily messing blocks.

3- Raised the number of witnesses shown.

• The total number of witnesses on Blurt is less than 300, but we decided to cap it to 200 for performance purposes, still we might even lower it to 100 as before if the page becomes too slow for the y user.

More information on the Nodes page

^{https://ecosynthesizer.com/blurt/nodes}

1- Added an indicator that warns if some node operators are only redirecting their domain to an existing node.

• This was done based on a request from the community since some actors stated that they are providing Seed/API nodes when in reality there were just redirecting to other existing nodes.

1- Withdraw routes now show the output nature (BLURT or BP).

2- Proposal fee added to the witness information table.

Tweaks on the proposal creation page

^{https://ecosynthesizer.com/blurt/proposals/create-proposal}

1. Capped time to 2 years as per code rule (fetched via API).
2. Switched from get_config to chain_properties to get the proposal fee.
3. Users are linked to a tutorial page on proposal creation.

Aethetics and UI

1- Several changes on UI, rounded some corners, fixed some tables, numbering rules ...

Thank you,
