Did Aleo launch the mainnet in the early morning of September 5? No, it's just a testnet
This morning, Aleo launched the mainnet beta version and launched the genesis block. Many people think that this is the official launch of the Aleo mainnet. In fact, it is not. This is also just a testnet, but its genesis block launch and blockchain operation are in accordance with the standard requirements of the mainnet. But there is no doubt that it is just a testnet, not the mainnet.
Many people think that the current beta version of Aleo will become a real mainnet during testing like Fil, so many people are anxious to start deploying machines to start mining, but I think it is unlikely, because the data of the original Fil testnet launch were all based on real data, and we can see from Aleo's block browser that its data are all messed up, not based on real data.
970 million staked, only 110,000 staked by the validator, and only 52 certifiers. These data are obviously false. You should know that one validator needs to stake 10 million. Aleo is so popular that there can't be only 52 certifiers. I won't say more. You can go and see for yourself. Of course, this is just a personal analysis, not absolute. Maybe it's not impossible to become the main network. It depends on the project party. But I think the probability of directly becoming the main network is very small, but now it's just a test network, not the main network. This is certain.
Now the market is not good, you can take advantage of airdrops. LSP is a node liquidity slicing protocol, which can sell the locked coins in advance on LSP. For example, when the Aleo mainnet is launched, some institutions and other people have to lock up coins for a year before unlocking them. They can be connected to LSP for early sale and cashing. As long as it is lower than the market price, there are people who buy it. The locked coins can be sold in advance for cash, and investors can buy the locked coins at a price lower than the market price. It is a win-win for all parties. This is a brand new market with great value. If you are interested, copy https://app.lsp.network/#/?invite=0x1f562d5b4a5abfa7e5cc3772a4288d8f2f809d93 and open it in the Web3 wallet. You only need a little ETH on the Arb chain to do GAS and sign in every day. The points earned by signing in can be exchanged for tokens when LSP goes online. If you are not satisfied with just signing in to get points, you can read my previous article if you want to get more points and more information about LSP.
