RE: Metropolis ahead: Ethereum developers Set September Date for Testnet release.
This is a stupid question, but what does this new segment mean for Miners of ETH , ETC , and EXP? is this just a more efficient blockchain protocol, or does this have real world changes in rewards and block time?
@noshch21 Thank you for taking time to read my article. In simple words testnet is a separate block chain used by devolopers on any cryptocurrency to test any changes prior to it's launch to public. The cryptocurrency in testnet holds value less than the actual cryptocurrency. So their are less miner doing this type of mining. Anyone can mine those coins but they hold less value.
Ah gotcha! Thank you.
No worries !!!!
