The Theta Pre-Guardian Node program is off to a great start! For those who aren’t familiar, the PGN is an early preview of Guardian Nodes, the 2nd layer of nodes in Theta’s multi-BFT consensus mechanism. It is very exciting to see that since April 8th, 2019 the number of verified nodes increased from 467 to 662, total THETA in PGN client increased from 68 to 80 million and pending TFUEL earnings total almost 671 thousand TFUEL! All this despite the fact that TFUEL earnings are just a fraction of what users will earn for running an actual Guardian Node once they launch in Q3 of this year. Exchanges continue to work on the integration of the Theta mainnet. Trust Wallet is now supporting Theta and Theta Fuel. Ledger and Trezor integrations are also in process. Last week NASA’s Antares rocket launch to the International Space Station was streamed on Sliver.tv. The team published an insider preview of how Theta Network integrates across PC, mobile, and the CJ Viewing TV box, walkthrough by Timothy Li, Head of Platform at Theta Labs. The final version of “Scalable BFT Consensus Mechanism Through Aggregated Signature Gossip” paper by Theta CTO Jieyi Long and lead developer Ribao Wei was published. The paper was also selected for presentation at the upcoming IEEE Intl. Conference on Blockchain and Cryptocurrency in Seoul this May. Theta community continues to grow. Network statistics constantly shows impressive numbers. The project gains ground. Further updates to follow!
