Dev Release 54

June 17, 2024

Greetings BlockDAG community,

Welcome to an Exciting Week for BlockDAG x1 Miner Development!
We're thrilled to announce the kickoff of phase 2 for the x1 Miner application. Our development team is hard at work to bring you an authentic mining experience. Here's what you can look forward to:

  • Real Mining Experience: Dive into the world of mining with our immersive application.
  • Leaderboard: Track your progress and see how you stack up against 49 other users.

How Mining Works
For you, the process is incredibly simple:

  1. Activate Mining: Just click the "Activate BlockDAG x1" button once every 24 hours.
  2. Sit Back and Relax: Our powerful backend will handle the heavy lifting, ensuring your mining experience is seamless and rewarding.

How Mining Works
For you, the process is incredibly simple:
 

  1. Activate Mining: Just click the "Activate BlockDAG x1" button once every 24 hours.
  2. Sit Back and Relax: Our powerful backend will handle the heavy lifting, ensuring your mining experience is seamless and rewarding.

Now let's get into some technical details on mining:
Mining in a mobile application with a single click involves a simplified and user-friendly interaction with the backend infrastructure, which handles the complex and resource-intensive processes. Here's a step-by-step explanation of how this can be technically implemented:

1. User Interaction

  • Single Click Interface: The mobile application provides a simple interface, usually a button, labeled as "Activate BlockDAG x1".
  • User Action: The user taps the button to initiate the mining process.
     

2. Request to Backend

  • API Call: When the user clicks the button, the mobile app sends an API request to the backend server. This request typically includes:
  • User’s unique identifier or wallet address.
  • Any necessary authentication tokens.
  • Parameters indicating the start of the mining session.
     

3. Backend Processing

  • Authentication and Authorization: The backend server verifies the user’s identity and ensures they have the necessary permissions to start mining.
  • Session Initialization: The backend creates a mining session for the user, allocating resources as needed.
     

4. The mining starts for valid session, and it also checks your group performance.

5. Reward Distribution

  • Block Reward: The backend creates a coinbase transaction within the new block, crediting the user’s account with the mining reward.
  • Wallet Update: The user’s wallet on the mobile app is updated to reflect the new balance.
     

6. User Feedback

  • Real-time Updates: The mobile app displays real-time updates to the user, showing progress and rewards earned.
     

Apart from this, we're also introducing the New Leadership Module: We’re excited to introduce a new Leadership Module where you can:

  • See the Top 50 Users: View the leaderboard to find out who has achieved the maximum rewards.
  • Track Your Position: Monitor your rank and aim for the top spot.
  • Get Inspired: Learn from the best and improve your own mining strategy.

Here's a sneak peak to our designs of leaderboard:
 

BLOCKCHAIN UPDATE

We're excited to share that in addition to our work on the blockchain explorer, we are also making significant progress on the blocks module.
What's the Blocks Module?
The blocks module is a crucial component of our blockchain explorer, designed to provide detailed insights into each block within the blockchain. Here’s what you can expect:

  • Detailed Block Information: View comprehensive details about each block, including the block hash, timestamp, list of transactions, and miner information.
  • Transaction Tracking: Easily track transactions within a block to see where funds are moving and how they are being used.
  • Real-time Updates: Get real-time updates as new blocks are mined and added to the blockchain, ensuring you always have the latest information.
  • Visual Representation: Understand the structure and connectivity of blocks through intuitive visual representations, making complex data easy to grasp.

Why It’s Important
The blocks module is essential for anyone looking to understand the inner workings of the blockchain. Whether you're a developer, miner, or just a blockchain enthusiast, this tool will provide you with the insights you need to analyze and verify the blockchain’s integrity.
Stay tuned for more technical development updates tomorrow.

Development Update & stay tuned!
Our developers are working tirelessly to complete phase 2. Once finished, we'll be resubmitting the app to the Apple Store to get you the real mining experience right in your hands.
Stay tuned for more updates as we continue to enhance the x1 Miner application! Happy mining ahead!
