The Complete Guide to Using The KardiaChain Testnet “Archi” Explorer and Wallet
*KardiaChain Explorer and Wallet is now available at Explorer.kardiachain.io
**KardiaChain Testnet Bounty Campaign is Live! Earn your free KAI tokens!
KardiaChain Explorer and Wallet are the first applications in the KardiaChain testnet “Archi”. To ensure our users have a smooth experience, we have written a guide to get you started!
We decided to name our first public testnet “Archi” — meaning “The Beginning” in Greek. We chose this word as a symbolic representation for the inception of the many great things to come in the future journey to achieve our vision of equal opportunities for everyone.
KardiaChain Wallet and Explorer are the first products we are releasing for public testing.
At the first release of testnet Archi, users will be able to create a wallet, receive faucet token and send/receive KAI token to/from other users. From testnet Archi 2.0, users will be able to deploy smart contracts on testnet “Archi” using KAI.
At later release, KAI can be used to deploy smart contracts on KardiaChain main network. It will also be a part of the cross-chain smart contract deployment process via Kardia Smart Contract Mark-Up Language (KSML). In addition, as part of KardiaChain BFT dPoS consensus, users can stake KAI to become validators, delegate KAI to other validators to earn block rewards and much more…
“I am very excited about our first public testnet release. Our team of dedicated developers have been working hard to achieve cross-chain capabilities with Ethereum, Neo and Tron. For network scalability, a peak TPS of 3,016 has been reached in our stress test — a small taste of what our unique technology is capable of. These are only the first steps in our mission of becoming the most interoperable blockchain platform.”
