Key architectural updates have been implemented, moving the project significantly forward. The network logic still requires refinement due to the system's complexity. Each new commit brings us closer to the goal, and the final solution is taking clear shape.
Currently working through the most challenging phase of development. The network stability issues are complex and will take time to resolve completely. Actively working to resolve these challenges while maintaining sustainable development pace. Once these core problems are solved, the testing phases can begin:
Phase One: Node activation through browser extension with real 1DEV token burning (on testnet)
Phase Two: Comprehensive mobile application testing
Final Phase: Production-ready blockchain with complete ecosystem
Development continues with steady progress toward implementing the features this project was designed for. Soon users will be able to activate nodes themselves and become part of the QNET network!

Technical Blockchain Overview

Processing Speed QNET demonstrates 424,411 transactions per second in tests - that's 14,000x faster than Ethereum (30 TPS), 6.5x faster than Solana (65,000 TPS), 17.7x faster than Visa (~24,000 TPS), and 60,630x faster than Bitcoin (7 TPS). This is achieved through microblocks every second + macroblocks every 90 seconds for final confirmation.

Quantum Computer Protection Most modern blockchains use cryptography that may be vulnerable to future quantum computers. QNET implements quantum-resistant algorithms CRYSTALS-Dilithium + hybrid protection with Ed25519 for compatibility.

Revolutionary P2P Architecture Instead of simple gossip protocol, QNET uses regional clustering (North America, South America, Africa, Europe, Asia, Oceania) + DHT routing (distributed hash table for efficient node discovery). The system automatically enables sharding (splitting network into smaller parts) when growing to 10K+ nodes and lock-free structures (concurrent data access without blocking) at 100K+ nodes.

Commit-Reveal Consensus Unique two-phase mechanism: first validators send encrypted votes, then reveal them. This prevents vote manipulation and last-minute changes - no other blockchain does this.

Mobile Revolution QNET runs on smartphones with 2GB memory, showing 8,859 TPS on mobile devices while consuming less than 0.01% battery per hour. Most blockchains only support mobile wallets, QNET first implements full light-nodes with equal rewards.

Accessible Participation Ethereum requires locking $100,000+ for consensus participation. QNET uses a reputation system and requires only 1,500 1DEV tokens (currently ~11 cents) for unlimited mining participation.

Efficient Storage Zstd compression + column families in RocksDB (organized database storage for different data types) + distributed chunk storage. Nodes store only 3-8 fragments instead of full history, dramatically reducing space requirements.

Parallel Processing ParallelValidator with multiple threads (simultaneous processing cores) + DashMap for lock-free operations + batch processing up to 5,000 transactions simultaneously - this optimization stack hasn't been implemented by anyone else yet.

Status: Experimental All metrics from controlled tests, real production environment will show true performance. Code is open source on GitHub for study and verification.

If the technology proves viable - this opens instant micropayments and mass blockchain adoption without technical barriers.

https://github.com/AIQnetLab/QNet-Blockchain/tree/testnet

Significant progress in network consensus: managed to launch a test network of 5 nodes that processed 10,000 microblocks over 9 hours of continuous operation. This confirms the correctness of the basic consensus logic.
The identified long-term stability issue has been found and resolved through log analysis. Will run additional network tests soon to confirm the stability of the fixes.
The fact of processing 10K blocks shows that QNET's architectural core works according to specification. Continuing debugging to ensure reliable operation before moving to the next development stages.

QNET: Post-Quantum Decentralized Network

Phase 1: 1DEV Token
Built on Solana as SPL token. Users burn 1DEV to activate nodes in upcoming QNET blockchain. Current cost: 1,500 1DEV (~13cents) for unlimited mining access. Price decreases as more supply burns - creating deflationary economics.

Phase 2: QNC Native Token
Triggers when 90% of 1DEV burned OR after 5 years from genesis. QNC (QNET COIN) becomes native currency with 4,294,967,296 max supply (2^32). Features unique "Sharp Drop" halving - rewards halve every 4 years, then drop 10x at year 20, then resume halving.

Three Reward Pools:
Pool #1: Base emission (starts 251,432 QNC per 4h, halves every 4 years)
Pool #2: Transaction fees (70% to server super nodes, 30% to full nodes)
Pool #3: Node activation fees redistributed to ALL active participants (Phase 2 only)

No Staking Required
Uses reputation system instead of locking tokens. Mobile light-nodes get equal rewards as servers. Participation based on reliable behavior, not capital.

Key Innovation:
Phase 1: 1DEV tokens are burned for node activation. Phase 2: node activation requires QNC payment to Pool #3. Both phases designed for fair distribution without traditional venture capital funding or premine.

This experimental approach proves independent developers can create advanced blockchain technology using modern AI tools.

Critical Network Stability
Improvements Implemented entropy-based block producer selection using previous block hash. New microblock producer chosen every 30 seconds (microblocks aggregate into macroblocks every 90 seconds) - impossible to predict or manipulate the sequence.
Added snapshot system with LZ4 compression every 1,000 blocks. New nodes sync in minutes instead of hours. Automatic cleanup of old snapshots saves storage space.
Implemented deadlock protection with automatic recovery through timeouts and health monitoring. Nodes self-recover from any state without manual intervention.
Parallel synchronization through 4 workers accelerates block downloads 4-10x. Catching up 50,000 blocks takes 8 minutes instead of an hour.
Removed dependencies on centralized IPFS gateways. Snapshots distribute through P2P without single point of failure.

• DevOps Specialist: $130K/year × 18 months
• Security Engineer: $150K/year × 15 months

Total traditional cost:
• Team salaries: $1.82M
• Infrastructure & tools: $300K
• Total budget: $2.12M over 20+ months

My approach: AI-powered technical architecture
• Timeline: 7 months vs 20+ months traditional
• Cost: AI subnoscriptions, servers
• Speed advantage: 3x faster

Demonstrating the future of blockchain development

https://github.com/AIQnetLab/QNet-Blockchain/tree/testnet

Today marks exactly one week since QNET launched - the first blockchain on pump fun. I want to share two important updates.

1. In a few hours, after the next unlock from the short-term vesting contract (https://app.streamflow.finance/contract/solana/mainnet/5cpMZt5xftxPoFLeoXehcoQNe2z9RKtZZ3mzrKnYn97L), I'll send another 5% of tokens into a new two-year quarterly vesting.

Together with the already locked 15% (https://app.streamflow.finance/contract/solana/mainnet/AEfkhkpTeAgVz15f5avNoE1EnyPy86RUt7wtv3Xew2x2), this will total 20% of my 25% locked for the long term.

2. Today a new, more powerful AI model for coding was released, which I've already started using. Development will move even faster now.

I want to thank every community member for your support and kindness. For every like and repost, for your faith in the project, for all your efforts. Building this together with you all means a lot. I'm confident that over time, through our collective effort, persistence, and belief, we'll create results we can all be proud of.

Thank you for being here.

Over 20% of my 25% tokens now locked in vesting

As promised, sent 5% tokens into 2-year quarterly vesting:
https://app.streamflow.finance/contract/solana/mainnet/BQZvm5cBWFnKBVHVYZf63wM96YqtQM6V5vMiCDFXUEvz

Another 15% already in 2-year vesting:
https://app.streamflow.finance/contract/solana/mainnet/AEfkhkpTeAgVz15f5avNoE1EnyPy86RUt7wtv3Xew2x2

Additional 4.5% in linear vesting until October 7:
https://app.streamflow.finance/contract/solana/mainnet/5cpMZt5xftxPoFLeoXehcoQNe2z9RKtZZ3mzrKnYn97L

Critical Storage System Update
Implemented adaptive block compression with automatic level selection based on data age. Recent blocks remain uncompressed for fast access, older blocks compress aggressively - saving up to 95% space.

Added delta-encoding between sequential blocks - system saves only changes instead of full copies.
Fixed critical scaling issue for sharded networks (network split into parallel chains for higher throughput). Full nodes now automatically adapt storage volume based on active shard count.
Three storage modes:

Light nodes: block headers only (~50-100 MB) for mobile devices
Full nodes: sliding window (~50-100 GB) - constant size, doesn't grow
Super nodes: complete history (~1.8 TB over 50 years) instead of 1.5 PB without optimizations

Added state snapshots with SHA3-256 integrity verification for fast new node synchronization.
Results:

Super nodes: 833x less space (1.8 TB vs 1.5 PB over 50 years)
Full nodes: constant 50-100 GB size instead of infinite growth
Light nodes: optimized for mobile devices

4 files changed, +1439/-173 lines. Network ready for long-term scaling without explosive storage requirements.

QNET Tokenomics

Phase 1: 1DEV on Solana

Token: 1DEV (SPL Token)
• Total Supply: 1,000,000,000 1DEV
• Contract: 4R3DPW4BY97kJRfv8J5wgTtbDpoXpRv92W957tXMpump

Burn-to-Activate Model:
• Initial cost: 1,500 1DEV per node activation
• Dynamic pricing: -10% for every 10% of supply burned
• Final cost at 90% burn: 150 1DEV

Developer Holdings:
• 20% locked in vesting contracts (verifiable on Streamflow)
• Transparent, publicly auditable

Phase 2 Transition Triggers

Activation occurs when:
• 90% of 1DEV supply is burned, OR
• 5 years pass from genesis block
• (Whichever comes first)

What happens:
• Native QNC blockchain launches
• All Phase 1 activated nodes retain status
• New activations require QNC payment to Pool #3

Phase 2: QNC Native Token
• Max Supply: 4,294,967,296 QNC (2^32)
• Why 2^32? Chosen as symbolic tribute to quantum technologies in a project featuring post-quantum cryptography.
• Initial Supply: 0 (no premine)
• Generation: Emission only through mining rewards

Reward Distribution System

Three Pools:

Pool #1 - Base Emission:
• Distributed every 4 hours to ALL active nodes equally
• Years 0-4: 251,432 QNC per period
• Halves every 4 years
• Year 20: "Sharp Drop" (÷10)
• Continues with ÷2 every 4 years after year 20

Pool #2 - Transaction Fees:
• 70% to server super nodes
• 30% to full nodes
• 0% to light nodes

Pool #3 - Activation Redistribution:
• All QNC paid for new node activations goes here
• Redistributed equally to ALL existing active nodes
• Creates shared benefit: every new participant rewards existing network

Mining Rewards by Network Size

Years 0-4 (Current Rate):
• 1,000 nodes: ~251 QNC every 4h
• 10,000 nodes: ~25 QNC every 4h
• 100,000 nodes: ~2.5 QNC every 4h

Years 4-8 (First Halving):
• 1,000 nodes: ~125 QNC every 4h
• 10,000 nodes: ~12.5 QNC every 4h
Year 20+ (After Sharp Drop):
• Rewards drop 10x, then resume standard halving

Consensus Participation

For Full and Super Nodes:
• 70+ reputation points required for consensus participation

For Light Nodes:
• Always participate in network
• No reputation scoring system for light nodes
• Focus on availability and ping responses only (just keep phone on with internet connection)

Equal Mining Rewards:
• Mobile light-nodes = Server nodes
• Based on reliability, not computing power
• Ping response every 4 hours
• Transaction fees distributed separately via Pool #2

Total Supply Evolution

Emission Schedule:
• Years 0-4: ~2.2B QNC (51% of max supply)
• Years 4-8: ~1.1B QNC
• Years 8-12: ~551M QNC
• Year 100+: Still emitting rewards (never reaches zero)

Final Statement on Price

I understand price volatility affects sentiment. Let me be clear: I'm here for the long term. I already addressed this when the market cap was at $40K - my commitment hasn't changed.
Focus remains on building working technology. Price will follow if the product delivers.
Once I complete the final network fixes and move to finishing the browser extension and mobile apps, everyone interested will have the chance to test it themselves. Actions speak louder than words - the working product will be the proof.
Building something real takes time.
