Welcome to this week’s Behind the Code and understand the engineering beating heart of the Elastos network. From AI-integrated infrastructure to decentralized stablecoin protocols and walletless UX, every commit this week pushed us closer to a SmartWeb run by users, not intermediaries.
This Week’s Major Developments
- BeL2-NBW conducted deep dives into Issuer decentralization and BTCD protocol edge cases.
- Elacity Labs brought walletless smart account flows to life, preparing for sovereign identity and embedded IPFS storage in the Puter OS.
- Infinity Team launched the world’s first full MCP server, giving AI agents like ChatGPT the ability to interact with the Elastos blockchain natively — from identity to DeFi. Developed Elastos BPoS node manager.
Below is the full breakdown.
BeL2-NBW Team
Mainchain Security & Maintenance
- Zero-Penalty Update: Testnet verification completed for ELA node v0.9.9.2, final builds and upgrade scripts compiled across all platforms.
- Node Sync Stability: Resolved sync issues between ESC Mainnet APIs and the ELA explorer; supported Council and BPoS node uptime and responsiveness.
Stablecoin Protocol (BTCD)
- Protocol Testing: End-to-end minting flows verified on ESC, including BTC lock, BTCD issuance, and repayment logic.
- Issuer Decentralization: Explored design for malicious Issuer behavior mitigation and penalty frameworks. Risk modeling and failover scenarios drafted.
- Frontend Enhancements: Display issues fixed across guide modules, chain selector logic, staking amount previews, and cross-platform wallet compatibility verified.
Partner-chain:
- BPoS Node testing: Tested block production with node dropouts; introduced fallback producer messaging and SPV sync fixes.
- Consensus Hardening: Analyzed edge cases where block production halts on group switch; implemented and verified safeguards using a 36-node testbed.
Monitoring, Services & Ops
- Arbiter & Issuer Monitoring: Integrated monitoring for 10 EF-run arbitrators and issuer endpoints in production.
- Proof Submission Refactor: Rewrote automation logic, raising submission success rates.
- Docker Optimization: Improved build times and deployment speeds for signer services.
Elacity Labs WCI
Puter OS Foundation (Decentralized Compute)
- OS-Level Storage: 80% of file system abstraction modules completed; prepped for local IPFS integration in ~2 weeks.
- Identity Layers: Identity and storage abstraction now route through local smart accounts, paving the way for Web3-native operating environments.
Smart Account Infrastructure
- Universal Executor: Abstracted transaction orchestration finalized. Tested batch flows across subscriptions, purchases, and withdrawals — all without user wallet steps.
- Backend Foundation:
- Modularized Docker config and scaffolding
- Ownership and EOA/SA logic integrated
- Full CI/CD deployment active to staging
- Frontend Refactor (In QA):
- Removed wallet login friction
- Enabled Web2 identity onboarding
- Unified UI across offers, minting, and pricing flows
Result: Elacity now enables frictionless, walletless transactions through sovereign accounts — no Chrome extension, no key management. Full onchain power, zero Web3 headaches.
Infinity Team
MCP Server — AI x Blockchain Breakthrough
Elastos now runs the first fully-integrated Model Context Protocol (MCP) server — enabling AI agents to act natively across:
141 AI-accessible Blockchain Operations:
- ELA Mainchain (69 ops): Transactions, governance, network stats, balance tracking
- ESC Smart Contracts (38 ops): Contract deployment, gas estimates, DeFi analytics
- Decentralized Identity (11 ops): DID issuance, auth flows, credential verification
- Hive Storage (12 ops): NFT metadata, NoSQL DBs, large file support
- Cross-Chain Transfers (11 ops): Asset bridging between ESC/Mainchain
Architecture Excellence
- Fully TypeScript, 15k+ lines
- 500+ interface definitions, 400+ test cases
- Natural language command layer for ChatGPT, Claude, Cursor, and more
Use Cases Enabled
- AI-native DeFi bots, identity verification tools, and content automation
- Developers soon will be able to launch Elastos dApps through AI interfaces alone — little code required
Impact: Elastos becomes the first blockchain designed for the AI-native era — fully composable by both humans and machines.
Elastos BPoS Node Manager
- 1-Click Deployment tested and fully functional.
- Node management services under testing phase.
- Full release is slated for later this week.
What’s Next
BeL2-NBW
- Watch metrics and prepare mainchain upgrade
- Continue BTCD security checks and ESC contract tests
- Finalize PGP consensus enhancements and production rollout
Elacity Labs WCI
- Merge Web2 front end work to production
- Begin IPFS installation phase for Puter OS
- Continue QA on walletless flows and smart account UX
Infinity Team
- Continue MCP integrations
- Publish agent SDKs and demo workflows
- Prepare AI-focused hackathon and marketing assets
- Launch Elastos BPoS Node manager
This is what building a SmartWeb looks like: onchain transactions without wallets, sovereign storage without servers, and AI agents that can do everything but think for you.
