- [Upgrading to Quilibrium v2.1.0-p2 (Bloom)](/upgrade-2-1-0-2): For more better FAQ regarding the v2.1.0-p2 (Bloom), please refer to the ([link](/))
- [Using gRPCurl for Info on Quilibrium Network](/using-grpcurl): You need to configure the `config.yml` and configure the `listenGrpcMultiaddr` variable there. Instructions on how to do that is found [here](/setup-node/setup-node-8#1-enable-grpc-to-enable-grpc-function-calls-for-your-node).
- [Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)](/archived/faq): This question is the most frequently asked of them all. Depending on when you joined in on the project, the answer will vary. At this point, fully-synchronized nodes should start accumulating a balance. We are working to improve synchronization so it's not an incredibly long slog to get there. Everyone who has been participating should see some balance when Dusk launches.

- [About Quilibrium and Components](/concepts/what-is-quilibrium): In the sections after "What is Quilibrium?", Q's underlying architectural components are explained in two ways - in terms a five year old can understand (no math, just metaphors), but we'll also step it up in accuracy to a level a high schooler could also understand (algebra, a bit intermediate but with effort can be understood). There will be two pages named `ELI5` and `ELIHS` (Explain Like I'm a High Schooler) with its own respective story for each component. This will omit quite a few details, but hopefully will help connect ideas to real world concepts so that the broader picture becomes clearer.

This just means the Gitlab server that Cassie is personally hosting encountered an internal server error (Error 500) due to overwhelming requests from thousands of nodes trying to upgrade at the same time.

- [About Quilibrium and Components](/concepts/eli5/communication): Imagine our tree house club wanted to talk to other tree house clubs, how would we do it? Most of us have played the telephone game with tin cans and string, so imagine if you and all your friends set up a bunch of strings across the tree houses – now you can all talk to each other! Suddenly you can play games across the forts – Battleship, go fish, anything you can communicate.
- [About Quilibrium and Components](/concepts/eli5/hypergraph): Your cool treehouse network has evolved into quite the machine: envelopes shuttling along wires, locked chests and cameras and keys, but there's a lot of work people in the treehouse have to put in just to find where things are, and remembering all of that, keeping track of it all?
- [About Quilibrium and Components](/concepts/eli5/storage-and-compute): Each tree house has a lot of stuff in it, sometimes the same stuff others have, sometimes it's things only you have (like that cool four foot tall robot), but if others knew what you have, they might try to sneak into your tree house and steal it. What if you were staying over at a friend's tree house and wanted to show off your robot? How can you prove it's yours, or that you even have it, when you're away from your home base?
- [About Quilibrium and Components](/concepts/elihs/communication): We've got a group of friends who like to meet once a week and catch up on the latest gossip, but you've all got really busy schedules with extra curriculars, so finding the right time to meet, and know if it's even worth meeting (last time Dave just wanted to drone on about his breakup and it was a huge bummer and totally his fault anyway) is challenging. Teachers are really strict, and if a cellphone is confiscated they're reading the conversation out loud, which was super embarrassing for Dave (man he's gotta stop it with the TMI).
- [About Quilibrium and Components](/concepts/elihs/hypergraph): This gossip ring has grown to the whole school by this point, even teachers are starting to use it! Sally realized that the prom question math trick applied to any kind of computer application by taking the entire application's code and turned it into the same random number exchange trick (**Garbled Circuits**) and built out a way for people to efficiently store their information privately, prove they still had it, and built even more complex tools, like a way to demonstrate that Kyle never helps on any group project he's assigned to by having each group member show what they individually contributed over the time of the project and how it collectively made the final group project by association. Empowered with the ability to build small, simple functions that could handle encrypted data like it was unencrypted, suddenly the whole school was sharing small app snippets they could mix and remix to make their own clique's chats livelier, embarrassing topics less embarrassing, or just cooler, and kept their privacy the whole time through (**Multi Party Computation**).
- [About Quilibrium and Components](/concepts/elihs/storage-and-compute): Let's say you want to ask Stacy to prom, but you're scared she might say no. She's part of your group chat, and knows how to send messages, but she could totally reveal your question and make fun of you and the embarrassment would be too much to handle! Sally's no quitter when it comes to cool math tricks, so she devised a plan: rather than just let people live in social purgatory, why not use some simple arithmetic to make it so everyone says who they'd ask out, but only if that person also says yes!
