**About Cassini Testnet**

Our third testnet is named "Cassini" in honor of the Cassini probe. Cassini was the first probe to orbit Saturn and its moons, including Titan, providing a wealth of important data and images about Titan. The name symbolizes our continued pursuit of exploration and discovery and our strong belief in the future development of the Titan network, which will be further enhanced by the Cassini Testnet, bringing more innovative features and incentives.

**New Features**

In Cassini Testnet, we will present it as an L1 public chain built on Cosmos SDK. Users can exchange their previously earned Titan Points for TOKEN on the Titan Testnet and stake TOKEN on different consensus nodes to earn revenue. Resource nodes can also earn more rewards by providing more services to commercial customers. Cassini Testnet will continue to push the boundaries of decentralized network technology to optimize resource utilization and provide users with more efficient data storage and processing solutions. This testnet is not only a tribute to past achievements, but also a vision of future technological advances.

### Objectives and Expectations <a href="#gai-ce-shi-wang-de-mu-biao-yu-qi-wang" id="gai-ce-shi-wang-de-mu-biao-yu-qi-wang"></a>

1. Test chain release and operation

The test chain is an L1 public chain built based on Cosmos SDK, adopting DPOS consensus mechanism. It provides visual web pages, allowing holders of the test coin TTNT to stake their tokens on consensus nodes to earn rewards. This test will focus on verifying network performance and stability.

* Current functions: Does not support the deployment of smart contracts.
* Future plans: We expect to open a version that supports smart contracts in half a month.

2. **Deploy services based on WASM / JS container environment:**

In the Herschel test network, we have realized the integration of WASM/JS container environment into mobile apps, PCs and other edge devices. In this test network, we will provide commecial services for other projects based on these resources and optimize their performance:

* Tunnel Network - IP Leasing
* Filecoin - Station
* and more…

### Optimization and New Features <a href="#gai-ce-shi-wang-de-you-hua-yu-xin-zeng-gong-neng" id="gai-ce-shi-wang-de-you-hua-yu-xin-zeng-gong-neng"></a>

1. New Node Program
   * [x] Integration of the WASM / JS container environment into mobile APPs, PCs, and other edge devices has been implemented, allowing business customers to deploy WASM/JS scripts directly within legal boundaries.
2. Optimize Incentives&#x20;
   * [x] Adjust the incentives for L1 nodes from task allocation to rental, and introduce a penalty mechanism for the first time to cover the stability of L1 nodes and some cheating behaviors. In addition, adjust the base rewards of L2 nodes to be more in line with future rules.
3. New Wallet Function
   * [x] Users can exchange their points for TTNT through the Reward Redemption Center and receive them to their Titan wallet address. The wallet feature supports interactions such as transfer transactions and stake to earn.
