To all U Network (UUU) community members,

U Network (UUU) aims to be the NO.1 public blockchain within the content sector. Based on an open-sourced model, U Network and its technical community have rapid iteration. The testnet officially released on Aug 20, 2018, Beijing time. Now everyone can build his testing environment and join U Network’s testing!

Testnet release signifies that U Network public blockchain’s infrastructure has begun to take shape and the public blockchain’s research and development has entered a new phase. This is an important step in the transition to U Network mainnet. During this period, U Network team encourages all blockchain enthusiasts to participate in the testing and provide valuable opinions. Your support would be instrumental in the continuous perfection and enrichment of our technical content.

Currently, U Network public blockchain modules include Distributed Ledger, P2P Network, Modular Consensus Protocol, and Storage, etc. The main features of U Network include highly optimized transaction processing speed, scalable lightweight universal smart contracts, node access control, P2P link layer encryption, multiple consensus algorithm support, configurable block generation time and configurable digital currency incentive, etc. Distributed storage and file sharing solutions based on IPFS/Genaro and the cross-chain interactive protocols are still in progress.

In addition, DApp testing data has been successfully recorded on U Network blockchain. U Network team has also completed most components of the public blockchain, including U Network Blockchain Browser, U Network Wallet and U Network One-Key Token Release feature. You can visit http://test.u.network/ for the full experience.

The development of the testnet is inseparable from the efforts of every member of the U Network engineering team. Besides team members, we know that the technical community is key to the strength of public blockchain projects. U Network’s technical community is global: no matter where you are, you are welcome to participate in U Network technical community.

We hope that you would continue to provide valuable suggestions and work with U Network technical team to complete the development of the public blockchain. We also we hope that you would apply to launch new U Network-based projects. U Network Foundation will provide various kinds of support depending on the level of contribution and participation.

Besides individuals, teams and organizations can work with U Network to conduct technical research related to their own business. The two parties can have partnership in terms of technology, funding, and resources.

Other than the global technical community based on U Network public blockchain, U Network has also launched U Talk technical community. U Talk community is committed to building the first blockchain technology community that brings together China’s strength, aiming to connect the world’s top blockchain technology and to bring better and more cutting-edge information and real knowledge sharing to the Chinese blockchain developer industry. If you want to have more in-depth communication with China’s top blockchain developers, feel free to join our U Talk community.

Things have just begun, the best is yet to come.
