<p>We love to see the excitement surrounding the EVMOS relaunch! We want to make sure that all participants are clear of any doubts during this event so we have gone through the forums and community channels and collected the most commonly asked questions and answered them below. <br><br>Before we begin, here is the Evmos relaunch rollout plan (estimated timeline): </p><div class="kg-card kg-callout-card kg-callout-card-grey"><div class="kg-callout-emoji">💡</div><div class="kg-callout-text"><strong>Phase 1 (day 1): </strong><br>✅ Evmos enabled <br>❌ Airdrop disabled<br>❌ Staking rewards disabled <br>❌ IBC transactions (e.g. to/from Cosmos and Osmosis) disabled <br><br><strong>Phase 2 (day 3-4): </strong><br>✅ Evmos enabled<br>✅ Airdrop enabled<br>❌ Staking rewards disabled <br>❌ IBC transactions (e.g. to/from Cosmos and Osmosis) disabled<br><br><strong>Phase 3 (at minimum 5-6 days after relaunch)</strong><br>✅ Evmos enabled<br>✅ Airdrop enabled<br>✅ Staking rewards enabled<br>✅ IBC transactions (e.g. to/from Cosmos and Osmosis) enabled</div></div><h2 id="faq"><strong><u>FAQ</u></strong><br></h2><p><strong>Q: When will mainnet be relaunched?</strong></p><p>A: Mainnet will restart on the 27 April 2022, and will continue off at block 58700.</p><p><strong>Q: If I claimed and/or staked before mainnet failure do I have to do it again?</strong></p><p>A: No you will not have to. The chain will continue as it was one block before the mainnet failure.</p><p><strong>Q: What about the remaining 25% to claim?</strong></p><p>A: You will be able to claim the remaining 25% once IBC transactions are enabled in PHASE 3, at minimum 5-6 days after relaunch.</p><p><strong>Q: When will claiming and staking features be enabled?</strong></p><p>A: Staking will be enabled at the same time as relaunch, on the 27th of April. Note that staking rewards will be enabled in Phase 3, at minimum 5-6 days after relaunch. Claiming the airdrop will not be live until Phase 2 (3-4 days after the relaunch). </p><p><strong>Q: When will staking rewards be enabled?</strong></p><p>A: In the spirit of fairness, rewards will be disabled until Phase 3, at minimum 5-6 days after relaunch to give everyone a fair chance to claim.</p><p><strong>Q: Who is eligible to claim?</strong></p><p>A: If you staked <strong>OSMO</strong>, or <strong>ATOM</strong>, or paid gas on top dApps on <strong>Etherium </strong>before Nov 26th 2021, you are likely to be eligible for Evmos airdrop. You can find more information on eligibility in the following article under “<a href="https://evmos.blog/the-evmos-rektdrop-abbe931ba823?ref=p2p.org">Rektdrop Eligibility</a>”. </p><p><strong>Q: What wallets can be used to claim and stake my EVMOS?</strong></p><p>A: Currently only Metamask. To claim on Keplr we hav to wait for IBC transfers to be enabled. Ledger connections will work very soon too. Staking rewards are disabled until everyone has a fair chance to claim. </p><p><strong>Q: Where and how do I claim my tokens?</strong></p><p>A: An updated guide will be provided shortly after relaunch.</p><p><strong>Q: How long do I have to claim my EVMOS tokens?</strong></p><p>A: There is no timeline yet.</p><p><strong>Q: What happened during the mainnet failure?</strong></p><p>A: The Evmos team found a critical security vulnerability that required a quick upgrade. This upgrade was ill-tested and caused several double-signing errors requiring the chain to be halted to solve the issue.</p><p><strong>Q: Can I buy Evmos?</strong></p><p>A: There currently is no exchange to purchase EVMOS, however it is estimated that a Evmos DEXs will be set shortly after mainnet. Later we may also see exchange services provided by Osmosis zone, Diffusion Finance, Cronus Finance, Exswap, Evmoswap... Look out for the one with the most liquidity. One of them will probably win the race and become the dominant DEX</p><p><strong>Q: Can I transfer my Evmos?</strong></p><p>A: Yes, once the chain is relaunched transfers will work within Evmos. IBCs will be enabled soon after the relaunch.</p><p><strong>Q: What dapps are built on Evmos?</strong></p><p>A: You can find a list of dapps coming to Evmos <a href="https://github.com/tharsis/awesome?ref=p2p.org">here</a>.</p><p><strong>Q: What is Diffusion?</strong></p><p>A: <a href="https://chaindebrief.com/all-you-need-to-know-about-diffusion-finance/?ref=p2p.org">Diffusion Finance</a> is a Uniswap V2 fork, one of the first AMMs for Evmos — an EVM that leverages the Cosmos SDK enabling use cases around composability, interoperability and fast finality.</p><p><strong>Q: How to access to Testnet?</strong></p><p>A: Tech doc to set up the node: <a href="https://evmos.dev/testnet/join.html?ref=p2p.org">https://evmos.dev/testnet/join.html</a>.

<p>Evmos is a vital piece in the Cosmos ecosystem as it plans to bring a Cosmos SDK built, PoS blockchain that is compatible with Ethereum Virtual Machine (EVM) smart contracts.</p><h2 id="current-network-state">Current network state</h2><p>The Cosmos ecosystem, referred to as the internet of blockchains, is a decentralised network of scalable and interoperable blockchains each with an independent governance structure. Interoperability is achieved through inter blockchain communications protocol (IBC) and is the key to simplify the access and interaction of a wide range of blockchain-enabled products and services. The ecosystem has and is still growing at a remarkable rate - attracting an impressive amount of attention in the crypto space. However, it still has some distance to cover in order to catch up with Ethereum in terms of the number and variety of applications it supports. </p><p>Ethereum is massive. It is the 2nd blockchain in terms of market cap and has arguably the largest user base and the most applications of all networks, but such popularity has also led to congestion. The resulting high transaction fees became an issue that could stall the growth of the ecosystem leading to the rise of layer 2 solutions to solve these inherent scalability issues. Ethereum also certainly loses the comparison with the Cosmos ecosystem in terms of interoperability. Nevertheless, the utility of EVM smart contracts and a vast and established community of Solidity developers bring great value to Ethereum.<br><br>Evmos brings together the best of both worlds, enabling developers to utilise the functionality of EVM while enjoying the features of the Cosmos architecture. Evmos serves as the first IBC-compatible EVM-based chain, bringing composability, interoperability, and fast finality to Ethereum. Users will now have all the desired utility and features of Ethereum while benefiting from the fast finality and high-throughput of Tendermint PoS implementation. What's more, Cosmos and Ethereum users will be able to transfer this value amongst and between both ecosystems using IBC and emerging bridge projects.<br><br>The ability to use Ethereum Dapps on alternative blockchains has become a multi-billion dollar feature of web3, positioning Evmos as a potential leader in Cosmos' contribution to the web3 ecosystem. <br> </p><h2 id="token-allocation">Token allocation</h2><p>Evmos will have an initial supply of 200 million tokens at launch. The distribution will be amongst <a href="https://evmos.blog/the-evmos-rektdrop-abbe931ba823?ref=p2p.org">Rektrdop participants</a> (50%), strategic reserve (40%) and the community pool (10%). This is a unique feature of Evmos’ token distribution model. This airdrop does not benefit large token holders of other blockchains, nor will there be an early pre-sale which often results in issues for the decentralisation of token holdings. Rektdrop will result in an even distribution of tokens amongst an unusually wide group of community members. That means that the blockchain will be purely community-driven since the to-be-distributed EVMOS is the governance token for its namesake chain.</p><figure class="kg-card kg-image-card"><img src="https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/Yiue9kUquIz5wBbZnEi6MIv9_tXw4XsSuDMGyLPxdbbonPPR4WEvrAnqM2ySu9-XMUi2ynCCSTwwJBi1daMAhMhlZ66MsuofiQn_GF4JUnrJSk35R5pxz1K4Bg6vZ6gYFO33h1j3" class="kg-image" alt loading="lazy"></figure><p>Evmos will start off by being highly inflationary, with 300 million tokens being issued in the first year but dropping every year with the goal of 1 billion tokens being issued after 4 years.

Usually the validators are the sole benefactors of the rewards system. This is not the case with Evmos - this blockchain focuses on building a developer’s community around its main feature (EVM smart contracts compatibility) and claims that developers are equally important for the project, while still acknowledging the role of network operators. This concept is implemented in the form of dApps Store which creates a reward mechanism for developers based on the value and impact of their application.<br> </p><h2 id="token-utility">Token utility</h2><p>Other than paying for transaction fees on the Evmos network, each EVMOS token will give rights to participate in staking and governance.<br><br><strong>Staking</strong><br>Staking is the mechanism used to secure the network. It is the process of bonding coins/tokens (stake) in order to earn rights to participate in the "validation" of new blocks, and in doing so are compensated with rewards. Token holders can “delegate” their EVMOS tokens rights to Validators. Delegators are incentivised to delegate to a Validator that acts according to the best interests of the network as a whole.<br> <br><strong>Governance</strong><br>Evmos gives token holders the rights to submit and vote on proposals to better the network. Evmos stakers who do not vote will inherit the vote of their validator.<br> </p><h2 id="staking-evmos">Staking Evmos</h2><p>Validators play a crucial role, with their core responsibilities being validating transaction blocks and ensuring the security of the Evmos network. Validators may also decide to operate oracles, secure bridges, governance and much more. </p><p>Token holders can “delegate” their EVMOS tokens to the validators they wish. Validators will validate blocks of transactions on their behalf, earn rewards proportionally to the represented stake, and the network will redistribute it to their delegators after deducting a fee for the service they provide. Validators will set fees for their services, with a minimum of 5% of staking rewards earned.<br><br>The top 150 validators, based on the amount of EVMOS delegated to them, will be selected to participate in the validation of transaction blocks. </p><p>40% of newly-issued tokens as well as a portion of transaction fees will be allocated to staking rewards and will be redistributed to validators and delegators. Validators can also receive up to a 5% bonus by coordinating between each other to reduce their chances of empty blocks proposals.<br> </p><h2 id="slashing-risk">Slashing risk</h2><p>Evmos have implemented slashing to incentivise validators to conduct themselves and for delegators to select trustworthy validators. Validators who act in the following ways will see both their self-stake and their delegators’ stake slashed:</p><ul><li><strong>Double-signing:</strong> signing two or more blocks at the same height.</li><li><strong>Downtime: </strong>validator missing a significant amount of blocks.</li><li><strong>Unavailability:</strong> validator that is offline for a significant amount of blocks.</li><li><strong>Poor security:</strong> validator acts in a way where their security is compromised. <br> </li></ul><h2 id="useful-links">Useful links<br></h2><ul><li><strong>Website:</strong> https://evmos.org/</li><li><strong>Documentation:</strong> https://evmos.dev/</li><li><strong>Guides:</strong> Coming soon</li><li><strong>Twitter:</strong> https://twitter.com/EvmosOrg</li><li><strong>Telegram:</strong> <a href="https://t.me/EvmosOrg?ref=p2p.org">https://t.me/EvmosOrg</a></li></ul><hr><h2 id="about-p2p">About P2P </h2><p><a href="https://p2p.org/?ref=p2p.org">P2P Validator</a> is a world-leading non-custodial staking provider with the best industry practices and proven expertise.
