OORT Edge’s Global Coverage

Now in 15 Countries and 5 ContinentsAfter officially launching on February 15th, OORT’s decentralized edge network (OORT Edge) has been deployed in 15 countries and five continents. The amount of OORT’s edge node devices continues to grow daily, furthering the advancement of the Web3 ecosystem’s performance and security and getting closer to OORT’s goal of providing applications with comprehensive, multi-purpose data services that are secure, private, scalable, and low-cost.

Edge Mining Incentives

Edge devices will receive two types of rewards in OORT Edge: mining and utility rewards. Ascraeus rewards ​​will be distributed in the form of OORT’s latest testnet token ($CCNA). Additional and more substantial rewards will be sent to edge devices providing utilities (storage, compute, and data transfer) for OORT’s business clients.

Mining Reward Distribution

25% of the mining rewards will be released immediately every hour, and the rest 75% will be released linearly in 270 days.

Zero Collateral VS. Full Collateral

In Ascraeus testnet, OORT has made OORT Edge mining more accessible than ever. By simply owning a WiFi router, users have the option to start OORT Edge mining without putting down any collateral.

To attract more users to participate and contribute to the development of OORT Edge, the mining reward model in Ascraeus has been designed to reward early participants and full-collateral miners generously. Miners who deposit full collateral, which is 500 $CCN (the token of OORT’s 2nd testnet Huygens) or an equivalent amount of $CCNA (the token of OORT’s 3rd testnet Ascraeus, based on real-time token price) will receive 100% of the mining reward.
