Fuse Flash testnet and new token model changes announced

Fuse Network has announced that the Consensus Contract on the Flash Testnet network is now live, as per the latest updates shared with Finbold on July 29.

Dedicated to advancing the network’s capabilities, stability, and decentralization, Fuse is likewise introducing several key updates, including a new maximum stake requirement for validators, a deflationary token model, and the integration of Polygon’s Chain Development Kit (CDK). 

zkEVM Layer 2 Network 

The transition to a ZK-powered Layer-2 (L2) network using Polygon CDK is expected to boost the network’s scalability, security, and interoperability.

As Fuse progresses towards zkEVM architecture, its mainnet launch is expedited to Q4 2024.

This aligns with the platform’s overall strategy to make Fuse a modular blockchain, supporting new financial models and business use cases in Web3.

Key improvements and features to accompany the transition include a ZK Layer-2 network leveraging Polygon CDK to create an Ethereum-based Zero Knowledge (ZK) network, which will become our native network post-launch.

Further, the team hopes for increased scalability, customization, privacy, and Web3 support, with FUSE serving as the gas fee token.

Likewise, phased testnet adjustments including ZK rollup deployment, L1 <> L2 integration, and migration to ZK Validium will improve user experiences with increased transactions per second (TPS) throughput and decentralized validation.

Finally, Fues hopes to forge strategic partnerships to drive blockchain adoption for businesses.

Upgrade to the consensus mechanism

The change to Fuse Network’s consensus mechanism means capping the maximum supply of FUSE tokens, adopting a deflationary token model, and introducing a new maximum stake requirement for validators. 

This will hopefully drive token demand and long-term value for community members while supporting L2 migration.

A deflationary model will ensure more stable exchanges for businesses and consumers in need of Web3 financing and stabilize FUSE prices, adding value to all stakeholders.

Rising maximum stake amounts for validators will likewise reduce the number of nodes on Fuse, simplifying the validation process as validators can run fewer nodes.

Migration to Nethermind

Finally, Fuse is upgrading from Open Ethereum to Nethermind in a move set to boost performance, improve security, and stabilize transaction fees. 

Likewise, Nethermind introduces critical new Ethereum Improvement Proposals (EIPs) to protect against potential vulnerabilities.

Although the majority of assets in the cryptocurrency sector got off to a slow start this week, Bitcoin (BTC) could be looking at a massive advance toward and beyond the threshold of $47,000 soon, provided it manages to break the key resistance that currently stands in its way. As it happens, Bitcoin’s realized price distribution (URPD) or unspent transactions output (UTXO), or the amount remaining after every transaction, suggests that the maiden cryptocurrency is facing “stiff resistance at $38,500,” as noted by crypto market analyst Ali Martinez in an X post on November 26.
