About the qDai chain

The qDai chain is an experimental chain built on top of the Quorum blockchain platform. ​A special patch was applied to the Quorum go-client to support a Block Reward contract. This feature initially appeared in the Parity Ethereum client and allows flexible token minting.

Key properties of the qDai chain:

• Blocks produced every 1 second

• ​Istanbul BFT consensus

• Block limit 74'000'000 gas

• Gas price 0

• No block reward

• New native tokens (qDai) minted on Dai deposit (similar to the xDai chain)

• Block Explorer and JSON rpc were available during testing but are not currently operational.
