BTCD Foundation Launches Layer 1 Blockchain Infrastructure and Opens Public Testnet
Technical Architecture and Infrastructure
The BTCD platform is engineered as an independent Layer 1 blockchain, distinct from token-based projects that rely on existing third-party networks. The core infrastructure utilizes a hybrid consensus mechanism combining Directed Acyclic Graph (DAG) and Proof of Stake (PoS) protocols.
This architectural design is intended to address common scalability challenges in blockchain technology. The technical specifications indicate a capacity for high-volume throughput, with initial testing targeting transaction speeds of over 10,000 transactions per second (TPS) while maintaining sub-second finality. The system is built to operate autonomously, providing a decentralized foundation for developers and users.
Testnet Deployment and Minting Mechanism
Beginning February 15, 2026, the BTCD Foundation will initiate the Public Testnet phase. This phase allows users to interact with the network's minting protocol to test system stability and performance.
The minting process follows a programmed algorithmic schedule designed to test the networks long-term sustainability over a projected 25-year timeline. The protocol includes technical halving events scheduled every 2.5 years to regulate the issuance rate of digital assets on the network.
Transition to Mainnet
The Testnet phase is a precursor to the official Mainnet launch, which is currently scheduled for May 15, 2026. The Foundation has outlined a technical migration plan wherein digital assets minted during the Testnet phase will be recognized on the Mainnet system upon its activation.
Ecosystem Development Roadmap
Following the Mainnet launch, the BTCD Foundation plans to deploy a suite of decentralized applications (dApps) integrated directly into the Layer 1 core. The technical roadmap outlines the phased release of nine specific utilities, including:
o WealthBook: A social networking platform integrated with blockchain identity verification.
Future updates scheduled for later in 2026 involve the integration of automated trading algorithms and asset management utilities.
o Guardian DEX: A decentralized exchange interface.
o Nexora: A decentralized communication protocol.
