Vulcan Blockchain recently announced its grand launch of Gamma Testnet, which marks an important milestone in its journey to develop a scalable and powerful Blockchain ecosystem. The Gamma Testnet went live this week and is currently available for enthusiasts, developers, and other community members to get a chance to test and explore the capabilities of the first rebasing Blockchain in the world.
The Gamma Testnet acts as an essential stepping stone for the Vulcan Blockchain development roadmap that allows the team to get valuable insights and feedback from dedicated community members on Vulcan. Through this testnet stage, developers will be allowed to experiment with the Blockchain and smart contracts, assess transaction speed, and evaluate the entire performance of the Blockchain infrastructure. The collaborative testing phase will also allow them to spot and resolve potential challenges before the final Mainnet is launched.
As a part of this testnet, users can collect 10 test $VUL tokens using the official Vulcan Testnet Faucet. Vulcan Blockchain recommends using MetaMask as a preferred method to access the Gamma Testnet and to ensure a seamless experience.
To successfully install the Testnet to the user’s network, follow the instructions provided below. Actively participate in this testnet phase to contribute to the development of Vulcan Blockchain’s stance in the Cryptosphere.
However, it is to be noted that during the testing phase, users need to be aware of the accelerated epoch interval that has been sped up from 900 seconds to 90 seconds to provide enhanced efficiency control. Vulcan has brought about this change, especially for this testnet phase. From a perspective of development, this reduction in the interval from 900 seconds to 90 seconds is practical since it reduces the waiting time to test the function being built.

Throughout the Gamma Testnet phase, Vulcan Blockchain will gain deep insights that will help them complete the required steps to deploy the Vulcan Mainnet. The team will focus on undertaking an extensive Blockchain audit and then designing the bug bounty program. These important processes may require additional time to allow the developers to proceed confidently with the launch of the Mainnet.
Vulcan Blockchain is fully committed to identifying, assessing, and resolving potential weaknesses or vulnerabilities in the system by delivering robust code auditing. Bug bounties will simultaneously provide external experts with an opportunity to contribute their experience and help the ecosystem strengthen the reliability and security of the Mainnet.
There is great anticipation around the launch of the Vulcan Mainnet. Hence, the platform ensures delivering a dependable and high-quality blockchain solution. However, the team may require additional time to provide a more secure and robust Mainnet experience for all the Vulcan stakeholders involved.
During the course of preparing for the Vulcan Mainnet launch, the platform will be eliminating the $VUL Sacrifice Checker from its decentralized app (dApp). The change will aim at optimizing user experience that ensures a smooth and seamless transition.
However, to replace the $VUL Sacrifice Checker, the platform will be combining the current data and adding it into a single one-stop solution to bring about a newly upgraded all-inclusive Vulcan Blockchain dApp. Users must note that the existing version of the Vulcan application is operating as a prototype, and the current figures are for demonstrative purposes only. The application cannot be linked with any other platforms at this current stage since it is a view only.
