🧪 Phase #6 Starts Now

The final development phase before Testnet is live.

We're entering a 1-week grace period. Most nodes are already migrated to DevNet7 with a few still finalizing. Once migration completes, stats will reset and tasks will run across the network to confirm stability.

What's in Phase #6:
🔹 Node Level Rewards
- Base rewards introduced by tier (3 levels)
- Linear level bonus on top

🔹 Memory Index & GPU Benchmarks
- General dynamic model loading, switching, reporting & NodePool matching
- Stress testing all supported models (CPU + GPU: incl. LLaMA 3.x, DeepSeek)

🔹 SessionPayment Integration
- Full contract ↔ contract payout flow
- Real-time event trigger validation

🔹 Regression – Refactored Sessions
- Session & SessionQueue data isolation fully live
- Backward compatibility + regression testing

🔹 Oracles & Canary Testing
- Multi-region shards monitored across CA, UT, OH
- Canary rollout on DevNet7 + Testnet-0/1

🔹 Privacy Prototyping
- Early privacy-preserving sessions & queues prototyping
- Full evaluation deferred to Testnet due to limited user data in DevNet

🔹 Validator Expansion Prototyping
- Extending Validator v1 with quantitative (embedding/distance) + qualitative (LLM scoring) checks
- Prototyping PoI & PoUW modules; full rollout during Testnet

🔹 Hackathon #2
- Launches one week after Phase #6 start
- Focused on real-world apps, integrations, and agent tools
- Double rewards pool compared to Hackathon #1
- Draft/WIP: https://docs.cortensor.network/community-and-ecosystem/hackathon/hackathon-2

🔹 Testnet Stress Testing

🧪 Phase #6 Recap – Final Dev Phase Before Testnet

Phase #6 has been one of the most comprehensive milestones yet - the final development phase before the Testnet rollout. With about two weeks remaining, nearly all planned objectives are complete, and the network is operating in one of its most stable states to date.

🔹 Validator Expansion & Stabilization
- Both Validator v2 (PoI) and Validator v3 (PoUW) are fully live and running across DevNet7, Testnet-0, and Testnet-1.
- Node operators are now participating in distributed validation, confirming stability across both GPU and CPU instances.
- Visualizations, heatmaps, and validator leaderboards provide real-time insights into validation performance.

🔹 SessionPayment Integration
- Full contract-to-contract payout and real-time event validation are functional.
- End-to-end payment verification runs continuously across test environments.

🔹 Memory Index & GPU Benchmarks
- Dynamic model loading, switching, and NodePool matching stabilized.
- Network-wide benchmarking for LLaMA 3.x, DeepSeek, and other supported models completed successfully.

🔹 Dashboard & Data Visualization
- Expanded validator stats dashboards and improved real-time visibility for quantitative and qualitative metrics.
- Validator detail views and indexer endpoints provide deeper insights into task validation patterns.

🔹 Hackathon #2 – Active Phase
- Three-Four weeks in, builders continue shipping agentic web apps and decentralized AI tools.
- About two weeks remain until submission close (Nov 2).

🔹 Deferred Items → Testnet Phase
- Privacy-preserving sessions and deep stress testing will continue into the upcoming Testnet phases, when more real-world traffic and user data become available.

Phase #6 has successfully transitioned Cortensor from prototype validation to a multi-network, multi-role system with live validators, payments, and visual analytics.

The final weeks will focus on validation data refinement, final node onboarding, and preparing for the public Testnet launch.

🧪 Phase #4 Recap – Trustless AI Infra Under Load

Phase #4 was Cortensor's most advanced testing phase yet - pushing live task routing, payment flows, multi-oracle sync, and node diversity under real conditions.

🔹 Live User Task Pipeline
End-to-end tested: session deposit → credit allocation → task execution → node payout via $COR. First user task payments confirmed on-chain.

🔹 Internal Mini-Hackathon
Five working apps built in two weeks, surfacing critical edge cases and driving UX fixes across the task pipeline.

🔹 User Task Flow Polishing
Internal testing helped refine session states (ack → precommit → commit), ranking logic, and failure handling.

🔹 Dynamic Node Shuffling
Randomized miner selection through precommit rotation improved fault tolerance and load distribution.

🔹 Router Node REST API + Reverse Proxy
Apps tested against production-ready API with full SSL support, key-based auth, raw prompts, and flexible proxy routing.

🔹 Multi-Oracle Coordination
2–4 oracles per network with 15-minute rotation cycles now live for sharded validation and leader election.

🔹 SessionPayment Module
Tested in a loose OracleV3-triggered mode for credit and payout flows. Will evolve toward tighter contract-to-contract logic.

🔹 CognitiveLevel PoC
Deployed on DevNet6. Begins groundwork for SLA, model-aware routing, and node classification by performance.

🔹 NodeVersion Tracking
New module added to track historical node versions for better debugging, filtering, and upgrade management.

🔹 DevNet6 Migration
All major modules moved to DevNet6 for deeper iteration and Phase #5 preparation.

📊 Stats: https://dashboard-devnet5.cortensor.network/stats/heatmap/rank/table

Phase #5 will tighten, automate, and scale toward a resilient testnet.

Cortensor Q2 Recap – Progress Through Pressure

Q2 was about pushing boundaries - scaling stress tests, resolving real-world bugs, and laying the foundation for a decentralized AI execution layer.

Here’s a high-level recap of what we shipped, improved, and what’s next:

🔹 (1/5) Closed Testing Milestones
Phase #3 and #4 pushed hundreds of nodes and thousands of inference tasks through real-world E2E flows. Each bug revealed a breakpoint we resolved.

🔹 (2/5) Core Reliability Upgrades
We introduced task queuing for Miner and Router nodes, fixed session state bugs, enforced version alignment, and stabilized the full task lifecycle from submission to response.

🔹 (3/5) Community-Led Momentum
183M+ $COR staked (52.48% of circulating), the first internal hackathon launched, contributor tools added to the ecosystem repo, and website v1.5 rolled out with improved onboarding and documentation.

🔹 (4/5) Protocol Design in Motion
PoI & PoUW oracles are being designed for testnet, network task levels will unlock smarter routing, and our session-based payment module PoC is live - laying the groundwork for a sustainable inference economy.

🔹 (5/5) What’s Next
We'll complete two final closed phases (#5 and #6) to polish user-side flows, inference reliability, and economic integrations - setting the stage for testnet and real-world application usage.

🧪 Phase #4 Starts Now

Cortensor's most advanced testing phase is live.
We're entering a 1-week grace period - node ops can still sign up and join through next week.

What's in Phase #4:
🔹 Dynamic Node Shuffling
Randomized precommit selection ensures fairness and fault tolerance - key for trustless execution.

🔹 Full User Task Pipeline Under Load
End-to-end stress testing across:
Node Pool ➝ Session Queue ➝ Task Stats ➝ Session Stats ➝ Reputation.

🔹 Session UI Updates
Improved orchestration view (ack → precommit → commit) + UX refinements based on alpha feedback.

🔹 Router Node API + Reverse Proxy
Production-ready Web2/Web3 integration - including API key auth, SSL proxy, and raw prompt support.

🔹 Multi-Oracle per Network
Starts with 2 oracles per network, scaling to 4 - each rotating leadership every 15 mins for better fault tolerance and reliability.

🔹 L3 Experimentation
L3 remains our main stress testing ground as Arbitrum Sepolia continues to face instability.
We may transition fully to L3 in Phase #5 if conditions persist.

🔹 Mini Hackathon (Internal)
Community members are helping surface missing features and fix bugs across DevNet5/6 - a prep step toward more structured hackathons ahead.
