Cartesi’s May 2021 Development Recap
Q2 Milestones Inbound
As of 2022 Descartes has now been renamed as Cartesi Compute.
Development Updates
During the last month, the Cartesi team worked vigilantly towards several upcoming Q2 milestones.
- Cartesi Rollups: Continued work and implementation of Cartesi Rollups. Concluded coding of the “Output”, “Validator Manager” and “Cartesi Compute V2” contracts, all with basic unit test coverage done.
- Machine Manager for Rollups: Architecture and design decisions of the Machine Manager for Rollups, with relevant progress on the implementation of the API to give support for future disputes on Cartesi’s architecture.
- Noether’s Proof of Stake Delegation System: The team has finished coding the first phase of Noether’s Proof of Stake delegation system’s on-chain work. The first version of the Cartesi Explorer delegation staking front-end containing enhancements and new UI features to allow users to easily delegate their stake to pool managers is now also completed. We are now working on completing the Delegation system and it will be released on testnet soon. We are now entering the final internal testing phase before the public launch by the end of Q2.
