🚀 ITS TESTNET TUESDAY — THE ROAD TO $DGB DIGIDOLLAR V1 🔥 Before any major upgrade goes live on the DigiByte blockchain, it must first survive the proving grounds: TestNet. This is where new features are battle-tested, verified, and pushed to their limits long before MainNet ever sees them. ------------------------------ WHAT IS TESTNET? TestNet is a parallel DigiByte blockchain that mirrors MainNet rules: multi-algo PoW, UTXOs, Taproot, addresses, and transactions. The key difference is that TestNet coins have no real value. This gives developers and the community a safe environment to: • 🛠️ Test new features • 🐞 Find bugs and edge cases • 🧪 Validate new consensus logic • 📈 Stress-test network performance • 🧬 Simulate risky or extreme scenarios We push TestNet so MainNet stays rock-solid. ------------------------------ WHY TESTNET MATTERS FOR DIGIDOLLAR V1 DigiDollar V1 introduces big new components: new consensus rules, time-locked collateral, the Oracle MVP, minting and redemption logic, and emergency mechanisms like ERR. TestNet allows us to safely verify: • ⛓️ Time-locked UTXO collateral behavior • 🔄 Automatic minting and redemption flow • 📡 Oracle data publishing and validation • 🧱 Taproot and script interactions • ⚙️ Multi-algo compatibility • 🚨 Emergency Redemption Ratio triggers We can run price shocks, invalid Oracle feeds, congestion tests, and failure scenarios without any risk to MainNet. ------------------------------ WE NEED TESTNET NODE OPERATORS A strong TestNet depends on community-run nodes. If you can run a DigiByte full node with good uptime, you can help. WANT TO BE A TESTNET SEED NODE? If you’re interested in running a TestNet seed node for DigiDollar development, let us know. We’ll coordinate setup and configuration with you. More TestNet nodes = more decentralization = a stronger DigiByte ecosystem. 💪🐝 ------------------------------ DIGIDOLLAR V1 CODE REPOSITORY The DigiDollar V1 branch is now live under DigiByte Core: 👉 Explore the code. Help us test. Be part of building the future of decentralized stability on top of DigiByte.
