Testnet Token Migration

6. Testnet-to-Mainnet Migration

This chapter outlines how testnet participants can convert their earned tXDSN tokens into real XDSN tokens upon mainnet launch. The migration process is designed to reward meaningful contributions while maintaining token supply integrity and economic sustainability.


🧪 About tXDSN

tXDSN is a testnet token deployed on the Sepolia Ethereum testnet. It is used to simulate staking, governance, and node operations during the testnet phase. While tXDSN itself holds no intrinsic value, rewards earned through verified participation will be redeemable for XDSN on mainnet via a one-time swap mechanism.

  • Network: Sepolia (Ethereum Testnet)

  • Supply: 50,000,000 tXDSN

  • Purpose: Node rewards, governance simulation, staking trials

  • Swap Eligibility: Based on performance and participation tiers


🔄 Conversion Tiers

Tier

Criteria

Conversion Rate

Notes

Tier 1: Pioneer

≥ 95% uptime, full archival node, governance participation

1 tXDSN = 1.5 XDSN

Bonus multiplier for top contributors

Tier 2: Sustainer

≥ 80% uptime, full node, consistent data serving

1 tXDSN = 1.2 XDSN

Solid performance, slightly boosted conversion

Tier 3: Contributor

≥ 60% uptime, light node, occasional governance input

1 tXDSN = 1 XDSN

Standard conversion

Tier 4: Observer

< 60% uptime, minimal participation

1 tXDSN = 0.5 XDSN

Reduced conversion due to low engagement


🧮 Cap Total Conversion

To prevent inflation and preserve token value, a hard cap is enforced:

  • Maximum Conversion Supply: 5% of total XDSN supply

  • Smart Contract Enforcement: Conversion logic is capped programmatically

  • Tier Allocation: Fixed percentages per tier to ensure fairness

  • Transparency: Cap details published and auditable


📊 Audit Logs

Node performance is verified using a combination of on-chain and off-chain logs:

  • On-Chain: Governance votes, staking events

  • Off-Chain: Uptime, data served via Prometheus/Grafana

  • Immutable Storage: Logs stored on IPFS or WORM formats

  • Review Process: Automated analysis with public summaries


⏳ Claim Window

Participants must claim their converted tokens within a defined window:

  • Duration: 90 days post-mainnet launch

  • Grace Period: 30-day extension for verified contributors

  • Unclaimed Tokens: Redirected to community treasury

  • Smart Contract Logic: Claims disabled after window closes


🧠 Summary

The migration process ensures that early contributors are rewarded fairly, while maintaining economic sustainability and transparent governance. By simulating real-world participation on Sepolia and offering a structured swap to mainnet, XDSN builds a foundation of trust and performance-based incentives.
