The launch of SCS Chain’s testnet and the rollout of the TSCS airdrop event have sparked heated discussions among SuperEx users. While actively participating in the event, some users have raised questions to SuperEx about the difference between the testnet and mainnet of SCS Chain.

This article will explain in detail: What is a testnet? What is a mainnet? And what’s the difference between a testnet and a mainnet？

What is the SCS Chain Test Net?
Every blockchain project needs to run on a blockchain network to carry out the project’s functions and the transactions on that blockchain.

However, building a blockchain mainnet (also known as a mainnet) takes time. To test and demonstrate a blockchain project’s capabilities to investors and users in a secure environment, project teams first run prototypes on a testnet, which has become a common practice in the blockchain industry.

The SCS Chain testnet is a network for testing blockchain, its behavior and execution are consistent with the mainnet, providing developers with an environment to develop, debug, and test their projects. Simply put, the SCS Chain testnet provides developers with an environment for simulating project execution, helping developers safely simulate project operations without risk, and without the danger of damaging the blockchain itself.

For developers working on any decentralized platform, security is of paramount importance. Running on the SCS Chain testnet also helps to identify any vulnerabilities in the platform and educate developers on how the platform works.

What is the SCS Chain Mainnet?
The SCS Chain Mainnet is, relative to the testnet, a complete, independently running SCS Chain network. It is the technical core of SCS Chain, used to record, verify, and store all transactions and data. The SCS Chain Mainnet is a key stage in the development of SCS Chain. Once the mainnet goes live, it signifies that SCS Chain has achieved the ability to operate independently and carry out complete functions.

Differences between the SCS Chain Testnet and Mainnet!

Differences in purpose and functionality: The SCS Chain Testnet is primarily used for testing and verifying the functionality, performance, and security of the blockchain system. It is a pre-release environment during the development process so that developers can test applications, smart contracts, and other functions.
The SCS Chain Mainnet, on the other hand, is a complete, independently running blockchain network used for real-world production environments and application scenarios.
Stability: The SCS Chain Testnet and Mainnet use different storage spaces; the two networks operate independently and cannot interact, so Tokens on the two networks cannot be directly exchanged. Also, the status of the SCS Chain Testnet can be adjusted at any time based on demand, its stability is inferior compared to the Mainnet, which needs to go through ample testing, auditing, and verification to ensure the system’s security and stability.
User participation and ecosystem development: After the launch of the SCS Chain Mainnet, it attracts more users and developers to participate in the blockchain ecosystem, promoting project development and the realization of application scenarios. Meanwhile, the Testnet is mainly designed to attract developers to participate and provide feedback to improve and perfect the project.

In conclusion, the testnet is a pre-release environment used during the development and testing stages, while the mainnet is a complete, independently running blockchain network used for actual production environments and application scenarios.

Advantages of SCS Chain
SCS Chain boasts 5 unique advantages:

Sharding technology

Sharding technology is an exclusive solution proposed by SCS to address scalability. Its technical features have been explained earlier, so we won’t repeat them here.

5000 TPS

SCS Chain boasts a transaction speed of up to 5000 transactions per second (TPS), effortlessly handling large-scale transactions, eliminating waiting, and solving Ethereum’s congestion problem.

3S/Block

SCS Chain boasts an ultra-fast block generation speed of up to 3 seconds per block, making all transactions based on SCS faster and smoother.

SCS Chain executes transactions at less than 1% of the cost of Ethereum, truly achieving high efficiency at low cost.

TSCS has actual value

Unlike the valueless issuance of testnet tokens by mainstream networks on the market, SCS Chain’s testnet token TSCS will officially launch trading pairs in Q3 of 2023, representing a token of actual value that can be normally traded.

TSCS is a benefit activity launched by SuperEx to give back to users. It can be obtained 100% free through airdrops. This means that any third party developing applications on the testnet will need to purchase TSCS from users as GAS fees. This strategy will directly drive the price of TSCS into an upward trend.

Currently, the SCS Chain testnet has officially gone live, and the airdrop event for its testnet token TSCS has officially begun. According to the distribution rules of TSCS, users participating in the event will share a total of 200 million TSCS, which makes up 100% of the total TSCS token supply.

The rules for the 200 million TSCS airdrop event are as follows:

The second phase of the airdrop event officially began at 4:00PM (UTC) on June 13, 2023. The airdrop rewards will be distributed daily starting from June 14, 2023, at 9:00 AM (UTC). The event will end on the day before the Q3 2023 mainnet launch.

Specific details of the event are as follows:
1.Hold ET to get TSCS airdrop rewards
During the event, all incremental holding users of ET can receive TSCS airdrop rewards;

Exchange rules:1ET=2TSCS

Calculation rules: Based on the users ET holdings on the 12th, incremental calculation starts from the 13th, and the incremental part is awarded with a 1:2 airdrop. The reward is settled five times at irregular intervals every month according to the ET holdings on the settlement day. After each settlement is completed, you need to increase your holdings again to get subsequent rewards!

Example:

If Jack held 500ET before June 12th, and can receive 1000TSCS airdrop on the settlement day of the 12th;

Starting from the 13th:

-First settlement: If Jack added 500ET to his holdings, with a total holding of 1000ET, he will receive a 1000 TSCS airdrop;

-Second settlement: If Jack did not increase his ET holdings after the first settlement, and there will be no airdrop reward;

-Third settlement: If Jack added 400ET to his holdings, with a total holding of 1400ET, and he will receive a 800TSCS airdrop;

And so on, if you increase the number of ETs held every time you settle this month, then the monthly increase in holding yield will reach an amazing 1000%

2.Participate in contract transactions to get TSCS airdrop rewards
During the event, all users who participate in future trading can receive TSCS airdrop rewards;

Exchange rules:1:2

Calculation Rule: The futures transaction trading fees for the day (including both opening and closing orders, in both buying and selling ) will be settled daily.

For example: If Jack participates in futures trading during the event and the trading fees reach 100 USDT, according to the exchange rules, Jack can receive an airdrop reward of 200 TSCS tokens for that day.

3.Participate in 1USD to get TSCS airdrop rewards
During the event period, all users of 1USD can receive TSCS airdrop rewards;

Exchange rules: 1:1

Calculation rules: According to the participation amount on that day, settled once a day.

Example: During the event period, if Jack purchased 100 shares of Iphone14s 1USD rush purchase at a unit price of 1USDT. If he was lucky that day, he will not only receive a brand new Iphone14 reward, but also receive an airdrop reward of 100TSCS based on his participation amount of $100.

Calculated at the price of 1TSCS=1USDT, participating in 1USD during the event period can achieve “the possibility of winning the lottery”

4.Invite users to get TSCS airdrop rewards

4.4 Invite new users to complete recharge and hold positions

Exchange rules: 1:2

Calculation rules: According to the balance of funds in the invited users account, it is settled once a day.

Rule description: The fund balance is equal to the sum of the spot plus in the account and the remaining funds in the account;

For example: Jack participated in all activities, so how much income will he get?
If Jack is a old user of the platform, airdrop tokens that can be obtained:

Since Jack UID account was registered, starting from April 30th, the average number of ET holdings is 1000, then he can get an airdrop of 2000 TSCS;
Since Jack UID account was registered, he has conducted platform contract transactions, and the amount of fees for all contract transactions is 100U, then he can receive an airdrop of 200 TSCS;
Since Jack UID account was registered, he invited friends to register and recharge,

1> Invite 2 friends to register through the exclusive link. The total recharge amount of the 2 invited persons is 1000U, and he can get 1000 TSCS;

2> After the invited person completes the transaction, the commission is 50U, then he can receive an airdrop of 100 testnet tokens TSCS;

Then Jack can receive an airdrop of 1100 TSCS by inviting users;
