MLabs – Congested Testnet

Problem

Congestion can cause longer transaction settlement times or even failures. Developers need a low-friction environment to test DApps under high traffic loads to mitigate risks.

Solution

MLabs will build a persistent testnet mimicking peak transaction volumes and complexity, and maintain it for 6 months aiming for eventual self-sustainability and community recognition and persistence.

This is the total amount allocated to MLabs – Congested Testnet. 3 out of 5 milestones are completed.
