Introduction#
A boring and simple blockchain is a good blockchain.
Ethwei is a Cosmos SDK proof-of-stake chain. It has one job: run correctly, keep running, and get out of the way.
What Ethwei is#
- A Cosmos-SDK / CometBFT chain
- Fixed, predictable token emission — no surprises
- 0% community tax — validators and delegators keep what they earn
- Open validator set — anyone can run a node
What Ethwei is not#
- A DeFi platform
- A smart-contract chain (for now)
- A governance-heavy protocol
- Something that will pivot its tokenomics
Current status#
Ethwei is currently in testnet (ethwei-testnet-1). Mainnet is planned once the testnet
is sufficiently battle-tested.
Testnet tokens have no monetary value.
