Announcing Phase II of the Triton Testnet Campaign: Nautilus Layer3 Carnival
Nautilus Chain’s Layer 3 Carnival
Test Nautilus ecosystem dApps deploying on the betanet to earn token and NFT rewards
Nautilus Chain is a pioneering, modular blockchain. The first production-ready L3, it is the fastest EVM Rollup chain featuring parallel transaction processing and offers enhanced security and privacy by building on Celestia. By using Celestia as a Layer 2 foundation, Nautilus can offer both privacy through zkRollup tech and increased functionality through dApp chains, dApp rollups, and dApp subnets.
Triton Testing: Phase 1
To test Nautilus and prepare it for a mainnet launch, we launched a month-long testing phase. In that time, Nautilus achieved the following milestones:
- Over 200,000 community members
- Over 180,000 registered addresses for testnet incentive activities, with more than 500,000 on-chain transactions
- Established strategic partnerships with over 20 ecosystem partners, including Celestia, MultiChain, Eclipse, and Galxe
- Launched a 20,000,000 ecological support fund in collaboration with Zebec Labs, with Poseiswap receiving the first investment
Now Nautilus is ready for phase II of its testing. In this phase, we’ve brought together leaders in Layer 3 blockchain technology, the Celestia development team (celestia.org), ZK rollup experts, and a community of engaged users comprising a growing ecosystem.
Triton Testing: Phase 2
The second phase of testing Nautilus on the Triton testnet is divided into two classes:
- L3 Companions
- L3 Collaborators
Class 1: L3 Companion
In this class, you’ll be able to join online and offline events organized by Nautilus.
The first event is an seminar exploring the future of L3 technology and industry development trends, along with the benefits of deploying on Nautilus. It will bring together esteemed guests and cutting edge researchers, economists, and thinkers.
You’ll also be able to participate in discussions on L3 technology involving industry veterans and experts as they share asymmetric knowledge. We’ve also created a community of VCs, entrepreneurs, and KOLs to share their knowledge as you refine your concept and host hackathons to launch your project on Nautilus.
Also present will be VCs, entrepreneurs, and KOLs who will share their insights and who can help incubate your project through partnerships, hackathons and more. Projects in this class will receive the NatuilusGo NFT which will act as your pass to be an early member of Nautilus ecosystem, giving you access to exclusive benefits. High-quality projects in this class can receive customized coaching and marketing resources from Zebec Labs, and may even receive direct investment from the team.
Schedule
Class 2: L3 Collaborator
The Collaborator class is focused on supporting Nautilus ecosystem projects as the chain works toward its mainnet launch. To do this, we’re holding the Nautilus Ecosystem Carnival.
Projects participating in the carnival will be able to launch their dApps on Nautilus’ beta-net. Each project doing so will have its own OAT (On-chain Achievement Token) on Project Galxe, which users earn as they help the team test the dApp.
If you collect every ecosystem’s carnival OAT as a user, you’ll earn the coveted Citizen NFT. This NFT gives you access to a special reward pool provided by Nautilus. Citizens will have priority access to whitelists for new DEXs, games, and other projects launching on Nautilus.
Even if you don’t earn a Citizen NFT, the more OATs from ecosystem projects you earn, the more your future $ZBC airdrops will be weighted when Nautilus’ mainnet goes live.
Once Nautilus launches its mainnet, a $30,000 Inbucation Fund will be distributed over three months. The projects that had the most OATs claimed by users will receive, in order:
- $10,000 for the first place
- $5,000 for second place
- $3,000 for third place
The remaining funds will be distributed to other Nautilus ecosystem projects according to the number of OATs their users claimed. The funds can be used to reimburse cross-chain bridge fees, increase liquidity pool incentives, and other means that will help fund initial growth.
The top three projects will also receive their own Zepoch Node and Themis Gavel NFT for governance rights over the chain, and access to exclusive ecosystem airdrops.
Deadline for the event: Before the mainnet launch.
About Nautilus
Nautilus Chain is the first production-ready modular chain in Web3. Through its modular architecture, Nautilus combines the speed of Solana with the decentralization and security of Ethereum to become the fastest EVM chain available, capable of parallel transaction processing.
Developers will be able to use Nautilus, which serves as a precursor to Zebec Chain, to build next-generation payment dApps. Nautilus provides Solidity developers with the efficiency and customization to build dApps that wouldn’t be possible on other EVM foundations.
With Nautilus, Web3 technology will have the reliability and scalability needed to replace traditional payment rails all around the world.
