When can a certification be renewed?

The only limitation to a certification renewal is the delay between two certifications (5 days). However the clients like Ğecko will prevent the user from renewing the certification before the last three months of its validity.

  • the blockchain resource is scarce and we prefer to reserve it for the core of Duniter which benefits to everyone
  • there is no need for consensus and forever record of transaction comment, on the contrary, it is something that we prefer let machines forget
  • there will be transaction comments in Duniter v2 ecosystem, but this will be managed by other piece of software
