Dev Release-195

We are thrilled to introduce the Primordial Testnet, a significant leap forward in the BlockDAG ecosystem. This release enhances performance, usability, and security, providing developers with a robust environment for deploying and testing smart contracts.

• Optimized Network Performance 
  Faster transaction processing and improved stability.
• Comprehensive Developer Toolkit 
  A seamless suite of tools for smart contract creation and deployment.
• Secure & Risk-Free Testing 
  Deploy and refine projects before launching on the mainnet.
• Enhanced User Experience 
  Intuitive interfaces and streamlined workflows.

The Primordial Testnet sets the foundation for the next-generation BlockDAG infrastructure, empowering developers with cutting edge tools and an optimized blockchain network. This release accelerates innovation, making decentralized application (DApp) development more efficient and accessible.

• Improved consensus mechanism for greater efficiency.
  We've refined our consensus algorithm to enhance block validation speed and ensure more reliable transaction confirmations, resulting in a more efficient and scalable network.
• Enhanced security protocols to fortify the network.
  Our latest security enhancements include stronger encryption methods, improved node authentication, and advanced anomaly detection to mitigate potential threats.
• Increased transaction throughput and reduced latency.
  The testnet now supports a significantly higher volume of transactions per second (TPS), with lower confirmation times, ensuring a smoother experience for developers and users.
• Optimized chain performance for faster execution.
  We've fine-tuned the blockchain's processing engine, reducing bottlenecks and optimizing resource allocation, making smart contract execution and transaction processing more efficient.

• Improved block and transaction indexing for better data visibility.
  A more sophisticated indexing system has been implemented, allowing for quicker and more accurate searches, along with better organization of blockchain data.
• Enhanced UI/UX for smoother navigation and analytics.
  The explorer interface has been redesigned with user-friendly layouts, interactive charts, and enhanced filtering options to improve data tracking and analysis.
• Contract Listing and Contract Verification Tool.
  Developers can now list and verify their smart contracts directly within the explorer, ensuring transparency and reliability for users interacting with deployed contracts.
• Token Listing and Nodes Module.
  A dedicated module has been introduced for listing tokens on the network and providing detailed insights into active nodes, improving overall blockchain transparency.

• Expanded support for smart contract templates and libraries.
  Developers can now access a wider range of pre-built templates and libraries, simplifying the process of creating and deploying smart contracts.
• Improved debugging and deployment functionalities.
  Enhanced debugging tools and streamlined deployment workflows make it easier to test and launch smart contracts efficiently.
• Intuitive UI updates for a better developer experience.
  The IDE now features a more refined interface, improving accessibility and usability for developers working on smart contract projects.

• Resolved network synchronization inconsistencies.
• Improved error handling and logging for enhanced troubleshooting.
• Fixed UI bugs in the explorer and IDE application.

• Gather community feedback to fine-tune the testnet experience.
• Clarify the next scope of development
