(ORDO NEWS) — On November 2, 2022, the main Theta Network was updated to version 4.0.0. On December 1, Theta Metachain was launched, a special blockchain architecture created for the media and entertainment industries that are developing the Web3 space.
Theta Metachain is an interconnected network of blockchains that can operate independently and allows different Web3 projects to create their own subnets. According to the developers, blocks in each subnet are created every two seconds.
After the release, an easy-to-use developer tool will be released so that projects can quickly launch their subnet and connect it to the main Theta network. There will also be a Mainnet Developer Playground, where projects can test their products before launching their subnet.
Chainlink Staking beta test launch (v0.1)
On December 6, 2022 at 20:00 Moscow time, the beta test of Chainlink staking on the main Ethereum network is scheduled to launch. Addresses that meet the criteria and receive early access will be able to stake up to 7,000 LINKs.
Two days later, on December 8, 2022 at 20:00 Moscow time, access to the limited staking pool will open to everyone, who will also be able to stake up to 7 thousand LINK.
The staking pool cap is 25M LINK, roughly 5% of the current circulating supply or 2.5% of the total supply. Over time, it is planned to increase the pool to 75 million LINK.
Chainlink Staking is a crypto-economic security mechanism where stakers pass LINK tokens into smart contracts to provide certain performance guarantees against oracle services. During the first phase of testing, the staking pool will maintain a data feed for the current price of ETH/USD on the Ethereum network.
