> Quai Network is a set of EVM-compatible blockchains that achieves 50k+ TPS without compromising decentralization.
dev roundup
This month, core Quai developers have been focused on resolving issues found in Devnets and creating tutorials for running a node, mining, and deploying basic smart contracts during the Iron Age Testnet.

Core Protocol

Bug Fixes 

ProgPoW

ProgPoW has been fully implemented into the main branch of Quai Network. Additionally, the open-source ProgPoW GPU miner now functions and has been tested on both Nvidia and AMD GPUs. 

The open-source ProgPoW GPU miner can be found on Github: https://github.com/dominant-strategies/quai-gpu-miner 

Pelagus Wallet

Pelagus Wallet, previously a completely in-house construction, has been refactored to function as a TaHo fork. Quai-specific features, such as UX improvements for Quai’s multi-chain environment, will be added to the codebase throughout the Iron Age Testnet. 

The Pelagus Repository can be found on Github: https://github.com/PelagusWallet/pelagus-extension 

More information about the TaHo wallet can be found at https://taho.xyz/ 

Marketing

Documentation

Members of the Dominant Strategies marketing team have been working on open-sourcing the Quai documentation to allow community members to make their own contributions and changes. Once documentation has been open-sourced, there are additional plans to expand the scope of the docs to offer additional resources on higher-level topics as well as the in-depth discussions on Quai-specific topics. 

Content

The “This Week in Quai” initiative has continued through the month of July, providing weekly Quai-related quotes, definitions, and social posts:

Additionally, a new content initiative, “Quai Fridays,” has started on Twitter. The “Quai Fridays” community calls are intended to provide a window into the testing/development being conducted by core developers, acting as an opportunity for community members to ask direct questions about the protocol. The first Quai Fridays call was hosted on July 28th, and welcomed Quai co-founders Dr. K and Alan. 

Events

This July, members of the Dominant Strategies team attended EthCC in Paris to connect with the crypto industry and share the concept of Quai Network. The next conferences that Quai will be represented at are Token2049 in Singapore, and Permissionless in Austin, TX. If you’ll be at either of these conferences and want to connect with members of the Dominant Strategies team, send a message on Twitter or Discord!

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.
