Mesa Trail is a GO! ✅
The test network has been deployed, the first blocks have been produced, and Mesa Trail participants are preparing to kick off testing on Monday, June 1st! 🧱
The program aims to validate the automated upgrade process and all Mesa functionality under real network conditions, as well as gather valuable feedback ahead of the upcoming mainnet upgrade.

With our last two testnets, we reached a working proof of concept of a community-run network, operated directly from users’ phones and other devices.
The last few weeks, we've been building out a more complete feature-set on top of the network's strong user sovereignty.
Today, we launched a beta with our community for that new, more complete network architecture.
Here are the new components we are most excited about:
1. Now 120+ participants (doubled from ~60 in the last network)
2. High performance; aiming for 10+ tps, with 5-15s latency
3. Initial testing of zk-proof of personhood
4. Support for dapps – we will be testing several dapps on the new testnet, including an opinion market dapp, leveraging proof of personhood.
5. Support for making dapps easily instantiable by AI agents, and then [WIP] iterable by agents directly from user feedback.
We’ll be testing all of these over the coming weeks. Once working well, we'll have a solid foundation for a self-sovereign network, where groups of people can collectively build and iterate on the software they use, backed by proof of personhood.
On behalf of the entire Punkpoll team, we extend our deepest gratitude, David.
