It has been one week since Mainnet Alpha was launched, and we are proud to report that IoTeX blockchain is performing extremely well! 75,000+ blocks have been produced by Consensus Delegates, along with 200+ successful Delegate rotations (once per epoch/hour). This past weekend, we also surpassed 800 million IOTX staked/voted. Thank you to our amazing Delegates and community — to celebrate, we have exciting news for you!

IoTeX Block Explorer: iotexscan.io (new UI coming soon!)

The IoTeX Mainnet will be initiated in three phases, distinguished by the number of elected Delegates participating in consensus alongside “Robo-Delegates”. As we meet defined security / performance benchmarks, Robo-Delegates will be gradually replaced by elected Delegates throughout 2019. After a highly successful first week of Mainnet, we are excited to announce:

We will increase the number of elected Consensus Delegates from 12 to 18 at the start of epoch #350!
