Description

⠀Aleo is a blockchain that uses zero-knowledge proof technology. The use of this technology makes it possible to ensure a high level of confidentiality when working with the network - non-disclosure of the sender's wallet and the amount of the transaction.

⠀The main feature of Aleo is that it supports the work of smart contracts, and as a result, the ability to create DApps on it. Especially for this purpose, its own application development language and its own development environment (IDE) were developed.

Phases


At this stage, the following phases are known:

  • August 2022 - Developers can start writing, deploying and running software;
  • September 2022 - Testers start solving coinbase puzzles (PoSW) to earn credits, and the Aleo team launches a bug bounty program for snarkOS and snarkVM;
  • October 2022 - Validators start creating blocks and earning rewards

Awards


25M Aleo credist allocated for testnet

Rewards can be obtained in the following ways:

  • Writing, Deploying, and Running Programs
  • Finding bugs in the protocol
  • PoSW proof generation and coinbase rewards
  • Block generation as validators
