https://testnet.pivx.ninja
Overview
The PIVX.Ninja team is seeking funding to maintain, scale, and actively support PIVX Testnet infrastructure. A robust, highly available test network is the bedrock of safe ecosystem expansion, allowing developers to build, test, and deploy decentralized applications, wallet integrations, and protocol updates without risking real mainnet capital.
Unlike typical proposals that request funding for speculative concepts or future milestones, the PIVX.Ninja team operates on a "Deliver First, Fund Second" philosophy. We have already completely built out, deployed, and launched a comprehensive suite of Testnet tools. This proposal is strictly to help cover the ongoing operational infrastructure costs, system administration, and continued scaling of these already live services over the next 3 cycles.
Commitments & Standards
The PIVX.Ninja team is committed to ensuring high-availability uptime (99.9%) across all deployed public services. We pledge to maintain open communication channels with developers, external integration teams, and the general community. Routine infrastructure status updates, performance statistics, and software upgrades tracking the core repository will be communicated transparently via updates on the Telegram.
Completed Work & Current Infrastructure
We have built and currently operate a fully functional sandbox ecosystem for PIVX developers. The following components are already live and publicly accessible:
Testnet Block Explorer: A block explorer dedicated entirely to the PIVX Testnet. This enables seamless tracking of test transactions, address and network monitoring.
MyPivxWallet (MPW) for Testnet: A complete test-facing deployment of the accessible web/light wallet interface. Developers and users can easily create transactions for any kinnd of testing for the blockchain-related app (payment tracker, payment processing).
Testnet Faucet: A reliable, secure faucet system to distribute free test tokens to developers and community members on demand, ensuring a friction-free onboarding experience for anyone trying to build on top of PIVX.
20 Testnet Nodes: To guarantee network stability, block validation consensus, and accurate replication of mainnet peering behavior, our team currently runs and maintains 20 independent Testnet nodes.
Future Scaling & Budget Breakdown
While the network is stable today, maintaining a multi-node, multi-service architecture incurs tangible, recurring monthly infrastructure costs. Over the course of the requested 3 cycles, the requested 15,000 PIVX per cycle will be allocated toward:
Node Expansion: Upgrading and increasing the current pool of 20 nodes to a higher number to guarantee maximum decentralized topology and prevent single-point-of-failure routing issues during intensive protocol stress testing.
VPS & Dedicated Hosting Fees: Covering bare-metal or high-performance VPS environments required to handle simultaneous database reads/writes for the Explorer, continuous API queries, and protection against malicious script spamming on the Faucet.
Maintenance & DevOps Overhead: Routine system administration, security hardening, log analysis, tracking upstream PIVX Core daemon updates, and deploying rapid patches to ensure the test suite mirrors near-production scenarios perfectly.
Why Vote YES on PIVX.Ninja?
This proposal represents zero risk to the DAO budget. The tools are not drawings on a roadmap; they are live software that the community can use right now. By backing the PIVX.Ninja infrastructure proposal, you are voting to directly protect, sustain, and expand a production-ready testing ground that is vital for every developer, exchange integration teams, and auditor in the PIVX network.
We look forward to receiving community feedback, addressing any technical questions, and continuing our work to make PIVX development as seamless as possible.
