Additionally, we completed the groundwork for the NPMJS Alpha release, gearing up for both internal and public testing. To provide specific details:</p><ul><li>Enabled the allowance of 0 active validators at height 0, as the genesis block initializes the validator set. The initial validator count is established at height 1.</li><li>Rectified the allByIndex function in WalletRepositoryClone. It now returns cloned wallets from the original repository and is primarily utilized by the ValidatorSet to obtain a list of registered validators.</li><li>Implemented support for state exports on the ValidatorSet. Active validators are stored in the store under the activeValidators key as a string of public keys delimited by commas. Additionally, a restore method has been added to the ValidatorSet.</li><li>Extracted the State class from the Store. The State now exclusively contains blockchain-related data and facilitates snapshot export and import. It primarily encompasses node state data, such as bootstrap status.</li><li>Addressed an issue related to username registration errors. When overwriting a wallet username, the previously used username is removed from the index, making it available for reuse.</li><li>Released the alpha version of Mainsail on NPMJS with the current version marked as 0.0.1-alpha.2.</li><li>Implemented various fixes and refactorings.</li></ul><p>Looking ahead, the upcoming week will involve continued writing of documentation for Mainsail and addressing fixes to enable the integration of public nodes into the existing testnet network.</p><h2 id="header-2">Feedback &amp; Feature Requests</h2><p>If you are using our open-source products and would like to provide feedback or request a feature, please feel free to contact us via the contact pages for the specific product you are using or open an issue on GitHub.</p><p>Quick access links to GitHub issues pages:</p><ul><li><a href="https://github.com/ArkEcosystem/mainsail/issues" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">Mainsail </a></li><li><a href="https://github.com/ArdentHQ/arkscan/issues" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">ARK Scan </a></li><li><a href="https://github.com/ArdentHQ/arkvault/issues" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">ARK Vault </a></li></ul><h2 id="header-3">Follow on Twitter (X)</h2><p>Follow us on <a href="https://x.com/ArkEcosystem" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">X </a> (Formerly Twitter) and keep checking the blog to stay up-to-date on all of our new releases.
