LORO Testnet Stage 1 is Live

Yesterday the LORO Testnet stage 1 launched successfully with a diverse set of qualified Validators. The rolling genesis ceremony included Validators who demonstrated proficiency in setting up Service Provider infrastructure during stage 0.

As of this writing, the chain has 57 Validators and 21 Service Providers. For every valid request published to the Laconic Registry, a copy of the specified webapp will be deployed by each online Service Provider. Service Providers will soon have the option to require payment to deploy a webapp.

For App Publishers

Anyone who completed stage 0 registration using the onboarding process and Laconic Wallet has a funded account on stage 1, and can begin completing tasks for App Publishers. The role selected during the onboarding app no longer applies; any account can participate as an App Publisher, Service Provider, or both.

We look forward to a variety of “non-reference webapps” published for Task 12. Some examples include: a personal website, simple game, or a DeFi front end like this fork of Uniswap. This will help pave the way for an ecosystem of robust offshore web3 hosting.

See you on the LORO testnet!
