Sunset: The Testnet Proving Scalability
The Sunset testnet isn't just a sandbox; it's a live technical demonstration of Dusk's layered scalability and confidentiality roadmap. It tests the core consensus with real-world conditions and introduces Piecrust, a component for bundling proofs. The reasoning here is iterative, evidence-based development. Sunset allows for the stress-testing of TXRISE (private transaction pool) and KADCAST (gossip protocol) under load, providing empirical data to optimize the path to a mainnet that can handle high-throughput, confidential financial transactions without compromising decentralization.
