dev roundup

Overview

This month, the Iron Age Testnet has been officially announced. Launching on September 19th, the Iron Age Testnet will showcase the complete rework of the Quai protocol that has taken place since the Bronze Age in 2022. Additionally, the Iron Age Testnet will be incentivized, offering Mainnet Quai rewards to miners and developers, with future incentives for users yet to be released.

Core Protocol

  • The Iron Age Testnet was officially announced on August 21, 2023:
  • In preparation for the Iron Age, new release candidates have been cut for both go-quai and go-quai-stratum:

go-quai: https://github.com/dominant-strategies/go-quai/releases/tag/v0.13.0-rc.0

go-quai-stratum: https://github.com/dominant-strategies/go-quai-stratum/releases/tag/v0.6.0-rc.0

  • Internal testing of the Quai protocol has continued, and has yielded optimistic results. The additional stress to the network that the Iron Age Testnet will bring is the next step in ensuring the reliability of the current release of the Quai protocol:

Ecosystem

Since the announcement of the Iron Age Testnet, the Quai Ecosystem has been growing rapidly.

  • Solar Dex has indicated that they will be building on the Iron Age Testnet:
  • Dominant Strategies team member Max joined members of the Solar team for a Twitter discussion on the Solar integration to Quai:
  • Koala Wallet has indicated that they will be supporting Quai within the Iron Age Testnet:
  • Dominant Strategies team member Max joined members of the Koala team for a Twitter discussion on Koala’s integration of Quai:
  • Curvance has shared that they will be working to build on Quai Network:
  • Quai NFT projects have been creating partnerships and working to build their communities: 

Conferences

September is a busy month for the Quai booth, making an appearance at 3 conferences over the course of the month.

  • Permissionless II in Austin, TX from September 11th-13th:
  • Token2049 in Singapore from September 13th-15th:
  • Mainnet Messari in New York, NY from September 20th-22nd:

If you’ll be at the Permissionless, Token2049, or Mainnet conferences this month, be sure to stop by the Quai booth! 

Join us to build a better blockchain.

Quai Network is an open-source Proof-of-Entropy-Minima blockchain network utilizing the capabilities of merged mining to increase throughput and security. Users of Quai Network will enjoy fast transaction times without compromising decentralization and security. Miners will have competitive mining opportunities across the many blockchains within the network.

Capable of thousands of transactions per second, the Quai Network is a new solution to scalability that is soon to be ready for mainnet release.

Security

All Quai Network blockchains are braided together, keeping the entire network censorship resistant and secure creating Scalable Proof-of-Work.

Decentralization

Quai allows anyone to participate in network governance by running a node or miner. With thousands of participants distributed across the globe, there is no single party with the ability to modify or turn off the network, ensuring zero network downtime.

Scalability

Quai Network automatically expands with demand to upwards of 50,000 TPS while keeping fees under $0.01.

Consensus

Transactions in Quai Network can be locally confirmed prior to global confirmation, offering high throughput with the shortest possible time to economic finality.

Shared Security

All blockchains within Quai Network share Proof-of-Work security through merged mining. Every Quai transaction is eventually confirmed by 100% of network hash power.

Merge-Mined Parachains

Parachains inherit security and interoperability by merged mining with Quai Network, and create new incentives for miners and users.

The Prime Chain

The Prime blockchain acts as the "knot" tying all Quai Network chains together. The Prime blockchain braids sub networks together, facilitating the transfer of data across chains.

Sub Networks

Quai's many high-speed sub networks independently and asynchronously process transactions. All sub networks are braided together by the Prime chain, ensuring shared security and interoperability across the network.
