Gno.land is a layer-1 blockchain that integrates various cutting-edge technologies, including Tendermint2, GnoVM, Proof-of-Contributions consensus mechanism, on-chain governance through a new DAO framework with support for sub-DAOs, and a unique licensing model that allows open-source code to be monetized by default.
Use gnokey to interact with Gno.land's testnets, localnet, and upcoming mainnet.
For localnet setup, use gnoland.
To add a web interface and faucet to your localnet, use gnoweb and gnofaucet.
Gno.land aims to offer security, high-quality contract libraries, and scalability to other Gnolang chains, while also prioritizing interoperability with existing and emerging chains.
Post mainnet launch, Gno.land aims to integrate IBCv1 to connect with existing Cosmos chains and implement ICS1 for security through the existing chains. Afterwards, the platform plans to improve IBC by adding new capabilities for interchain smart-contracts.
