Testnet 2 #16
Description
In Testnet 2, we will test the chain adjustments for the Lethean ecosystem.
- Side-chain testnet launch
- SWAP txn Distributor
- Alias side chain verification
- Block reward distribution
- POW difficulty algorithm from Monero
Side-chain
This will create a secondary lightweight chain that handles name registration alongside Desktop + Gateway use cases. This description is purposely sparse since we have not publicly released any information on this.
SWAP Distrobutor
This non-public service, run by Lethean team custodians, facilitates the final step of the SWAP from the legacy chain.
Alias Handling
Our use of chain aliases will rely on the side chain. To set their blockchain payment alias, users must own it on the side chain. The chain node network will be unable to create valid alias transactions without the side chain ownership.
Block reward distribution
Block rewards will be increased until we hit 50% token in supply again, at which point the team/community can adjust.
POW difficulty algorithm from Monero
Monero has been attacked by ASICS, botnets, and adversarial AI networks; their difficulty adjustment mitigates many future issues. It can be changed later, but we will try it for now.
