Dymension Launches Incentivized Testnet for Building Scalable dApps
Dymension, the startup behind the interconnected network of modular blockchains called RollApps, is set to launch its incentivized testnet by the end of this month. This will allow developers to interact with its IBC-compatible rollups and start building more scalable dApps. Here are the key points:
1. Developers can easily deploy RollApps using Dymension’s command line tool Roller on the testnet.
2. The testnet deployment was made possible through collaborations with Avail and Celestia, data-focused networks.
3. Dymension’s RollApps provide full compatibility with IBC and the Cosmos ecosystem, making them unique.
4. Earlier this year, Dymension raised $6.7 million in funding.
5. The successful implementation of its devnet attracted interest in RollApps, and the testnet aims to do the same.
The launch of the testnet will allow users to interact with RollApps through the Dymension Portal. Data from RollApps will be published to Avail and Celestia, with Cosmos and Ethereum support coming in the future. Additionally, developers have a choice of virtual machines, overcoming a limitation of using the standard VM of the ecosystem they’re building in.
Dymension’s testnet holds promise in addressing scalability and infrastructure costs associated with dApp deployment, attracting interest from the wider Cosmos and Ethereum ecosystems.
*Hot Take: Dymension’s launch of the incentivized testnet brings them one step closer to their goal of providing a scalable solution for dApp developers. With its compatibility with IBC and the unique ability to connect to any data availability network, Dymension has the potential to make a significant impact in the Web3 world.*
