Improved Data Sync, Node Setup & More

In the crypto market, staying ahead isn’t just an option—it’s a necessity. For this reason, BlockDAG is advancing further with its Dev Release 128. This update introduces multithreading, data synchronization, real-time data access, and simplified node setup to make everything run smoother.

Additionally, this Dev Release also brings out new features like the Reflection Contract and the BDAG Lottery Contract. That adds more ways for users to get involved. With these features, BlockDAG aims to improve user experience and make its platform more efficient. With these updates, BlockDAG continues to advance in blockchain technology, ensuring each improvement brings real value to its users.

BlockDAG Explorer’s Recent Updates

The Dev Release 128 has rolled out the Beta 1 version of the BlockDAG Explorer Testnet. This version brings some cool features like Smart Contract Support, where developers can deploy and manage contracts easily. Token Tracker is another cool feature that shows real-time data on ERC-20 tokens.

On top of that, the BlockDAG team has significantly improved the network by resolving the block syncing issues. It boosted both efficiency and performance. With the introduction of multithreading, data synchronization across nodes is faster, enabling nearly instantaneous tracking of transactions and blocks.

The Explorer also received a major update—it now displays real-time transaction counts and detailed blockchain stats. It also supports a more user-friendly interface.

Real-Time Data Access & Simplified Node Setup

Furthermore, the latest updates to the BlockDAG Explorer have really opened up access to real-time transaction stats for both the EVM and UTXO explorers. The EVM Explorer now tracks daily transactions and trends, while the UTXO Explorer offers a peek into cumulative transactions and recent blocks.

Just last week, EVM transactions shot up from 26,202 to 39,747, and UTXO blocks increased from 30,797 to 43,987. These numbers highlight the network’s steady growth as BlockDAG edges closer to its Mainnet launch.

Additionally, BlockDAG has simplified the node setup process to make things smoother. That makes it easier for miners to help secure and decentralize the network.

Early miners get BDAG coins for their efforts as BlockDAG has enhanced its setup scripts and synchronization processes. An open-source GitHub repository now provides all necessary instructions, encouraging everyone to help strengthen and scale the ecosystem.

Reflection Contract for Instant BDAG Transactions

Dev Release 128 also introduces new features like the Reflection Contract, a dynamic addition to the BlockDAG network that enables instant BDAG coin transactions. Here’s how it works: when BDAG coins are sent to the Reflection Smart Contract, the same amount is immediately returned to the sender’s wallet. For example, if users send 50 BDAG, they’ll get 50 BDAG back.

This contract offers a fun and risk-free way to experience instant transactions on the BlockDAG platform. It’s ideal for anyone looking to explore the platform or simply test its capabilities without any concerns. Moreover, there’s no cap on the amount that can be sent and received back. Whether it’s 10 BDAG or 1,000 BDAG, the coins return in seconds. This feature offers users a simple way to learn about smart contracts with the benefit of instant results.

BlockDAG Rolls Out Lottery Contract

Parallel to this, BlockDAG’s new feature, the “Lottery Contract,” aims to boost excitement for its users. Participants can send any amount of BDAG to the Lottery Smart Contract and stand a chance to multiply their initial stake by anywhere between 1% and 1,000%. For example, 200 BDAG could turn into 2,000 BDAG with a lucky draw.

The lottery conducts hourly draws, where the Smart Contract assigns a random multiplier ranging from 1% to 1,000% to each entry. This process intensifies the excitement as participants eagerly await the potential for substantial returns on their stakes.

This innovative contract provides a dynamic and engaging way for users to interact with the BlockDAG network. It enhances the user experience and contributes to the ecosystem’s growth.

Closing Notes

BlockDAG’s Dev Release 128 introduces key improvements like multithreading, real-time data access, and the Reflection Contract; all focused on enhancing performance and user engagement. Since the testnet’s launch, the platform has seen smoother data synchronization and simplified node setup, which have helped build credibility and trust within the community.

This growing trust is reflected in the ongoing presale, which has already raised $77.5 million in Batch 23. With each update, BlockDAG is clearly moving forward, strengthening its platform and expanding its reach.
