Solana Co-founder Advocates ORE Fork for Network Stress Testing

• Yakovenko pushed for the ORE protocol to be forked in order to conduct network stress tests.
• The Solana creator laid forth the incentive that is associated with the ORE fork.

To address the blockchain’s network issues, Anatoly Yakovenko, co-founder of Solana, has put forward a fresh open proposal to the community. In his most recent call, he pushed for the ORE protocol to be forked in order to conduct network stress tests.

In response to an earlier X post by Chaofan Shou, a PhD student at the University of Berkley, on how he gets $10,000 everyday from mining ORE, Yakovenko presented the idea to stress test Solana.

Airdropping Rewards on the Mainnet

He provided some context before introducing ORE, a token based on Solana that employs a mining mechanism as a means of claiiming. Despite the fact that his setup is dependent on bloXroute and Jito Bundles, Yakovenko seems to think that everyone will be interested in forking it in order to make it more common.

In his submission, he inquired about the possibility of building an ORE fork using a miner on Solana’s testnet and then airdropping rewards on the mainnet.

This proposal’s reasoning is obvious given that Solana’s core developers are investigating several options on the testnet of the blockchain to ensure its long-term viability as part of a larger effort to alleviate the present congestion problems.

An appealing ORE fork, according to Yakovenko, may attract thousands—if not millions—of users, who will simultaneously provide the traffic necessary to reveal if Solana has broken the congestion barrier.

For anyone interested in taking on the enterprise, the Solana creator laid forth the incentive that is associated with the ORE fork. While miners and testers will get free monetizable tokens, Solana will get its much sought-after stress test, and he confirmed that the blockchain’s main developers and all validators would back the move.
