Our first sprint of the new year focused on finishing the final touches for Tropos-5. We have fixed various minor issues related to logs and configuration. At the time of writing this report, Tropos-5 has just been launched.

We have finally fixed the Stratos Chain memory leak issue caused by a specific cache configuration. We fixed it by adding a constraint on the configuration range to prevent huge memory usage.

The necessary function in the command line tool to convert the wallet from Tropos-4 and before is also ready, and the documentation provides instructions on how and when to use it (https://github.com/stratosnet/sds/wiki/Tropos-Incentive-Testnet).

Our team has identified an edge issue which affects the Ozone prices during network migration. The fixes are also included in the Tropos-5 launch. Additionally, some connection stability issues are also fixed on SDS.

In the next few weeks, what are we planning to accomplish? Firstly, we will closely examine Tropos-5 for any issues and related improvements. Secondly, we have also kick-started to bring more utility to our EVM module. This includes testing and updating the Web3 API to support an EVM-based Explorer. The third step will be to finish the SDS SDK and integrate SDS functionalities into our wallet application. As a last step, we will begin preparations for Security Auditing and Mainnet migration.
