Starcoin 2.0 Mainnet Soft Launch Now Live
Introducing “Tempus”—The Future of Scalable PoW Networks
Over the past three years, Starcoin has established a strong foundation for blockchain decentralization and security with its enhanced PoW mechanism and Move language.
Now, we are thrilled to announce that Starcoin 2.0 has officially entered its trial phase, marking a major step towards scalability and commercial applications. This milestone reflects our commitment to continuous innovation and excellence.
Starcoin 2.0: A Scalable PoW Network
Starcoin 2.0, known as “Tempus”, is a groundbreaking upgrade designed to overcome PoW scalability limitations while maintaining decentralization.
With the FlexiDAG and TurboSTM parallelization upgrades, the trial environment achieves:
- Max BPS (Blocks Per Second): 1 block/s
- Max Parallelism: 2 blocks
- Max TPS (Transactions Per Second): 130,000 tx/s
This ensures fast transactions, low fees, and high efficiency, solving issues of network congestion and high costs for Web3 applications.
