As summer winds down, our engineering and product teams have been heads-down shipping major upgrades across the 0G stack. In terms of infrastructure and user-facing applications, August saw significant progress, from compute network tooling to AIverse advancements. A look at what’s new, what’s improved, and what’s next is provided here. Ecosystem Construction Redesign of Chainscan’s UI We completed and delivered the first full version of the new Chainscan UI, designed to make onchain activity easier to navigate and analyze and improve performance and polish the user experience by resolving several follow-up issues that surfaced post-launch.
Updates included finalizing new designs, addressing bugs identified during testing, and ensuring the interface works smoothly across both desktop and mobile devices. These changes lay the groundwork for richer data visualizations and faster search across 0G.
Improved KYC Infrastructure
0G’s new Blockpass KYC flow has been tested end-to-end and fully implemented. The frontend build resolves prior bugs and now integrates seamlessly into our broader authentication pipeline, ensuring smoother onboarding for whitelisted users and compliance partners.
Following launch, additional fixes were deployed to resolve issues such as KYC reference ID mismatches and URL restrictions. We are also adding support for multiple wallets so users won’t have to undergo KYC multiple times if they have multiple wallets
The team also began technical groundwork to integrate additional KYC providers, which will help provide an additional layer of strategic redundancy and flexibility to 0G’s compliance infrastructure.
Sale of alignment nodes Integration testing for NaaS 0G is currently in the process of onboarding eight NAAS providers. Users will be able to earn rewards once this integration is finished by delegating their nodes to a reputable third-party NAAS provider, who will seamlessly manage a node on their behalf. This way, safeguarding 0G’s AI verification mechanisms will be accessible to users even without extensive technical knowledge or the ability to run their own node. The Node Sale rewards UI was built, the rewards contract was fixed, and integration testing for NaaS support was continued in recent progress. Together, these updates are ensuring the sale process is smooth for both node operators and delegators.
0G Faucet Improvements
We deployed significant stability and reliability improvements to 0G’s Faucet service, making it easier for users to claim testnet tokens without interruption.
Compute Network
This month’s progress on 0G’s compute network focused on making the developer experience more intuitive, expanding compatibility, and laying the groundwork for advanced fine-tuning and provider integration. On top of that, we also deployed several backend and contract-level improvements to improve efficiency and performance.
