Hardhat Chad, known for the Ore project, has suggested that the Solana Foundation introduce rewards to incentivize testnet activity amidst recent network congestion issues. He recommends offering SOL tokens to users participating in testnet activities, aiming to enhance platform performance and identify potential issues before deployment to the mainnet.
While some members of the community support Hardhat Chad’s proposal, others disagree. One user, TheSoftwareJedi, advises focusing on project development first and suggests applying for foundation grants for funding.
However, Hardhat Chad clarifies that his goal for Ore is not to seek funds but to establish a currency. He questions the need for testnet spam bots and emphasizes the project’s commitment to long-term sustainability.
Ore, a Solana-based project, explores token distribution through a proof-of-work mechanism. Its activity has contributed to network congestion, prompting the need for an overhauled smart contract framework.
Despite these challenges, Solana developers have released a mainnet beta update to address network congestion, with further improvements planned in subsequent updates.
