The Aleph Zero Mainnet will undergo a significant upgrade that will influence the validating and nomination mechanisms on November 30th, 2022. Most importantly, nomination pools will be created to increase scalability. The Mainnet will be opened to community validators on December 5th, 2022.  A few weeks back, we announced the introduction of community validators to

Inflation is the bogeyman of economics, almost always seen in a negative light. This isn’t always the case, though, as inflation is crucial for maintaining sustainable growth in proof-of-stake blockchains. By analyzing Aleph Zero’s inflation mechanism, we’ll learn more about how these two concepts intertwine.  In the past few weeks, we’ve received numerous queries regarding

As the Aleph Zero team begins to experiment with community validators, we do want to share a rather important piece of information: everyone will be able to validate the network. We’re happy to confirm what we’ve known for a while: everyone interested in validating the network will have the opportunity to do so from the

Aleph Zero’s community decided to delegate over 65% of the circulating supply over the last few weeks, validating the underlying incentive mechanism and laying the foundations for the further decentralization of the network. Aleph Zero observed enormous interest in the staking mechanism, with an impressive 65% of the circulating supply of AZERO delegated to the

Over the past month, the team behind Aleph Zero focused on introducing improvements to the testnet, upgrading the smart contract pallet to feature a new version of Ink! language, and, most importantly, bringing staking to the mainnet. Read on to learn more about what’s been going on!  Staking Is Live on the Mainnet  Back in

Staking has been launched on the Aleph Zero Mainnet, allowing users to finally put their coins to work in safeguarding the network. We have crafted a helpful guide that will answer all your questions on navigating the interface so that you can stake your AZERO in no time! The guide can be found through the

Staking has been launched on the Aleph Zero testnet, and you may have some questions on how to navigate the menu. Read on for a thorough explanation of how the staking mechanism currently works.  Note that until the next update, there will be no community validators on our network, hence some things are going to

As we introduce staking on the Aleph Zero testnet, it’s imperative we go over the concepts of validators, nominators, staking rewards—and more. Before we dive into the details, let’s focus on the most important takeaways. The Aleph Zero’s staking is now working on the testnet with the TZERO coins—the testnet version of the native AZERO.

Last month, most of the development team was preoccupied with strengthening the Aleph Zero chain, as well as upgrading its infrastructure and tooling to scale the network further. Besides that, we also put a lot of effort into the architecture of Aleph Zero validation, delegation, and staking, as well as WASM smart contracts — these
