We announced that the public test network will be carried out from April 18, 2020, and it is expected to last for 90–120 days. During this period, we expect to carry out three stages of work, pioneer, union and world.
We have experienced a long internal test network before, which has accumulated a lot of valuable experience for us. Next, we will conduct stress test in the public test network, and gradually open some functions according to the stress test results to ensure the robustness and stability of the public test network.Welcome to submit bug to us, we will attach great importance to your opinions, once adopted, there will be rich rewards.
Submit bug email: info@mw.run, please specify relevant bugs (including screenshots and detailed text descriptions).
Pioneer (April 2020-may 2020)
A. Before the height of block 1600, only the access and certification of miner will be opened.First, based on the current feedback from some miners that access to the network requires certain operating system and technical knowledge, which takes a certain time. Second, in order to ensure that most miners successfully access to the network and start mining at the same time, before this height, the public survey network will not generate a reward. The foundation will provide rich rewards for each certified miner. The general workflow is as follows:
Engineer remotely installs MW client for miner → MW client reads miner configuration and verifies → foundation airdrops MW (native currency) to miner → creates node statement transaction → node is recognized by network → waits for block height to reach 1601, and then officially starts block reward.
B. Starting from the height of block 1601 and entering the contest period of mineral computing power, we started to test testnet’s consensus mechanism and block out reward. Everyone can compete for block out reward through equipment configuration and mortgage quantity.The general workflow is as follows:
Join the network & start mining: the engineer remotely installs the MW client for the miner → the miner independently selects “join the network” at the MW client → the miner completes the operation of joining the network according to the client prompt → create the node to declare the transaction (mortgage MW according to the storage space) → the node is recognized by the network → start mining
Exit from the network: the miner independently selects “exit from the network” at the MW client → the miner completes the exit from the network operation according to the client prompt → creates a node to exit the transaction → ends mining (returns the mortgage MW)
C. After the above functions are tested and verified in the public test network and reach a stable state, we will pack the Linux / window / Mac client program, which will be downloaded and installed by miner on mw.run, and self-service access to the network.
Union (2020.05–2020.07)
A. We will open the mining pool function, which is a very meaningful function, and even determines the sustainable development of the whole ecology. Everyone can open several mining pools (refer to testnet consensus mechanism). No matter whether you have hardware equipment or not, as long as you have MW, you can make profits from it. This tests the social ability of the mining pool owners, and creates their own camp. The real competition is caused by this is the beginning.
B. We will select some mining machines with qualified configuration, invite to carry out business demonstration of alliance networking and centralized hosting in IDC room to provide low-cost and safe storage services for the real world. We have a special team to prepare for this. At present, we have established good communication with commercial storage software providers such as JD cloud to apply network and IPFS technology to actual storage services.We believe that this will be the first commercial storage project adopting IPFS technology in the world.
C. During this period, we limit the access storage space to 96000t.
World (2020.07–2020.08)
If the above work is completed as scheduled, we will officially enter the real world and the digital world, which is very exciting, and we believe that this is the time to truly reflect the value of MW.
A. For free trading, we use MW (erc20) token in encrypted digital currency exchange to solve the impact of network upgrade on trading. This is an automatic exchange function. We will release a MW (erc20) token to facilitate the exchange ,listing and circulation and the future main network upgrade will not cause trading impact. We will test during the Union.
B. Open source and continuous development work, we will open source our code for the whole world, welcome everyone to participate in the maintenance and upgrading of the image network, provide more creative and innovative products for the whole ecology, and even assist better teams to do better than our beneficial storage network.
We are committed to the safe and stable start-up of mirror world network. We hope that the appearance of network is not only an implementation of IPFS technology, but also can carry more imagination space.We are very grateful to all our friends, communities and teams who have helped us in the early stage, and we are very happy to create a mirror world network with you.
Best Wish
