This won’t work as you need to use the metrics port, not the node port, to retrieve the metadata.
Dimitar didn’t use to launch with metrics enabled, so he needs to use antctl to retrieve the version number like so:
antctl status --details |grep -B3 Version
That will give you a result like this:
╔════════════════════════╗
║ antnode1 - RUNNING ║
╚════════════════════════╝
Version: 0.4.14
╔════════════════════════╗
║ antnode2 - RUNNING ║
╚════════════════════════╝
Version: 0.4.14
Kinda crazy the network is down to around 13.5k nodes now.
Some of my individual nodes have hit the 2GB mark as far as storing data.
11.9k now.
I don’t have nodes anymore. I had 60, but it happened two times with my Ubuntu laptop, that when I go check it in the morning, it has restarted (the whole laptop) and nodes have died. I don’t know if this is just Ubuntu stuff, or related to Autonomi. It should always ask if I want to update the system, and not make that automatically.
Anyway, my next project is to run just a couple nodes with my work laptop (Windows, unfortunately), and see how well they blend into daily use of the machine: mostly on all the time, mostly home, but sometimes closed, carried and connected via phone’s hotspot.
I also think the network should shrink quite a bit more, to make running a separate laptop for 60 nodes economically viable. Of course it doesn’t cost much per month to have laptop running the nodes, but just in principle I’ll switch to “true everyday device”.
Download speed is still increasing. no data loss on my 20 GB file. I’ve just started a fresh batch of new uploads.
Never has Ubuntu installed a update or restarted a computer on it’s own in my experience.
It’ll be a setting. I don’t use Ubuntu normally but the times I have there seemed to be settings around auto updates. Although I automatically ensure they are off without a second thought and its only a fleeting memory that there is a setting to turn it on
It must be off by default, not anything I have ever changed.
I want to do a batch of anttp benchmarks again too. I did a quick one on wifi and it was fast, even for small files (where datamap overhead has increased since the last runs).
Got my first 4dp payment (merkle). Definitely still on the rise!

I’m not often right, so whenever I am I feel like I should quote it. But as of this morning my dashboard is showing less than 10.000 active nodes. We’re flushing out bad nodes, we’re flushing out overprovisioning nodes and the network is getting better, stronger and faster. Never thought I would be so happy with seeing node count decline.
yea merkeling is getting better all the time im getting files up on one attempt now 
Best part for me is that I can now run a reasonable amount of nodes without feeling like I must cram nodes in and push everything to the absolute limits.
That urge to max everything out was hard to shake even if you obviously did not need to during emissions.
But humans are humans and “if everyone else is doing it” it is super hard to just be sensible, and really why would you, a few sensible nodes is a flood of mayhem.
That’s why I bailed, but that element is gone. Good riddance.
Lets face it, fighting for a share of ANT gets nobody anywhere if the network is crap because of that greed.
birthday soon.
