Looks like the guy who posted an announcement have made mistake about gentx submission time arrangements 🤬

First 75 gentx submitted will be included in genesis. And currently there are already 89 PRs submitted. No need to submit new gentx anymore.

Just get ready for network launch on November 2. Guide will be updated when there will be more instruction from the team.

Validators do not need to be in the Active set nor in genesis to receive rewards

Stride have published the list of Incentivized Testnet rewards.

Check if your stride address is eligible for the rewards here: https://shorturl.at/fivw1

Points does not reflect token amount you will get. Currently if we take a fast look into the checker we can see all participants got 659425 points in total (this can change). So for the pool of 500k STRD it would be around 0.75 tokens per point.

Rewards will be vested linearly over 3 months (e.g. after 10 days, 10/90 of your airdrop will have vested). Portion of tokens will be unlocked each block.

If you performed tasks, and it's not accounted for, please fill out his form with evidence: https://forms.gle/KG9vKb5fknqGYQRu9

Here is the list of Incentivized Testnet tasks: https://github.com/Stride-Labs/testnet/tree/main/incentivized-testnet

Now you can buy decentralized domain using UI.
For that you will need to connect your Keplr wallet to https://app.deweb.services/ and have balance of 100 DWS tokens

Faucet to get testnet tokens currently is not working but team will fix it tomorrow.

🚀 Quicksilver Mainnet Launch! 🚀

Hey guys, Quicksilver mainnet launch is scheduled for this Friday December 16th!

1. Testnet rewards distribution:
- The rewards will be distributed at Genesis, with a 3 months lock up period, and will be stakeable right away
- At the end of the lock-up period, 20% of the allocation will become liquid
- The remaining allocation will then vest monthly over a period of 15 months

To make up for the 3 months lock-up period, which was not initially intended when Testnet incentives were scheduled earlier this year, the team has decided to increase the allocated Tokens by 10%. Meaning, each validator receiving Testnet incentives will get an additional 10% on top of the original allocation they were meant to receive.

2. Inflation:
Inflation will be turned off at Launch. The plan is to turn it on a few weeks after Launch - we have a target date of Jan 28th in mind, but that might move depending on some factors, such as the LSM going live on the hub. The plan is to adapt as we go, and we will keep you informed on the plans every step of the way.

3. Foundation Delegations:
All Genesis Validators will be getting Foundation Delegation shortly after Mainnet Launch (within 24h of Genesis). The delegations will be reviewed every 3 months, following an initial period of 6 months after Launch.
