# Weekly Report | Jun 17th — 23rd, 2024 By [CESS_Network](https://paragraph.com/@cess-network) · 2024-07-18 --- **Weekly Highlights** ===================== * Introduced a new territory module for the CESS network, allowing users to purchase any size of space as territory, and perform operations like minting NFTs, reselling, and donating. This enhances the flexible use of storage resources and more effectively unlocks data value. * Completed the development of the storage node monitoring program, including a supporting visualization module, which is a significant step towards enabling users to remotely manage large-scale storage node clusters, making it more convenient for nodes to join the CESS network. * Upgraded DeOSS with improved data upload, download, and breakpoint resume functions. Added the “CANS Protocol” to support small file uploads, further enhancing CESS’s ability to handle dynamic data. * [CESS](https://www.cess.cloud/) announced the **availability of the CESS Testnet on SubWallet**, enabling seamless integration and enhanced security on SubWallet Extension v1.2.5 and Mobile v1.1.65. * [CESS](https://www.cess.cloud/) is excited to join **IVSCrypto2024 as a Gold sponsor**, ensuring data sovereignty and user privacy while empowering the decentralized community. * [CESS](https://www.cess.cloud/) had a fantastic time at the “**Happy Hour @ Whino with VBC and DC DAO**” event, connecting with blockchain enthusiasts and sharing insights on decentralized cloud storage, CD²N, and the CESS AI Gap. * [CESS](https://www.cess.cloud/) hosted an engaging Space discussion on DePIN with Ava Protocol, featuring CESS Co-Founder, Joe and Sam Shev exploring the future impact of DePINs. **Project Development Details** =============================== The [CESS](https://www.cess.cloud/) testnet has been updated to [v0.7.6](https://github.com/CESSProject/cess/releases/tag/v0.7.6) and consists of a consensus node and a storage node. **Consensus Node** maintains the world state of the [CESS](https://www.cess.cloud/) network (by CESS Node) and serves as the “data authentication station” (by TEE Worker). **Storage Node** provides verifiable storage space and serves as the “data storage pool” in the CESS network. 1. **Consensus Node \[**[**v0.7.6**](https://github.com/CESSProject/cess/releases/tag/v0.7.7)**\]** * Added a territory module to the CESS Node, allowing users to purchase space (territory) in blocks and mint or resell NFTs for the territory. * Completed the writing and testing of benchmarks for all new features of the CESS Node. **2\. Storage Node \[**[**v0.7.10**](https://github.com/CESSProject/cess-bucket/releases/tag/v0.7.10)**\]** * Completed the development of the storage node monitoring program, allowing users to remotely manage multiple storage nodes across multiple machines. * Implemented visual interactive features for the storage node monitoring program, enabling users to monitor and operate nodes via a web interface. [_CESS_](https://www.cess.cloud/) _is a blockchain powered decentralized storage and CD²N (content decentralized delivery network) infrastructure for Web3. By utilizing a DePIN (decentralized physical infrastructure network) model, CESS drives mass deployment of network nodes globally through incentives. The first of its kind, DeOSS (decentralized object storage services) by_ [_CESS_](https://www.cess.cloud/) _has significantly contributed to the gradual enrichment and flourishing of the product ecosystem within the_ [_CESS_](https://www.cess.cloud/) _network, DeShare (online file sharing tool), and public chain snapshot storage services have been incubated. The developments for this month are as follows:_ **Decentralized Object Storage Service (**[**DeOSS**](https://github.com/CESSProject/DeOSS/releases/tag/v0.3.2)**)** * Enhanced DeOSS file breakpoint resume functionality, adding boundary check functions for filename character length limits. * Introduced the “CANS Protocol” to DeOSS, allowing users to package and store small files together, saving storage resources. * Improved DeOSS data download functionality, reducing unnecessary HTTP headers to facilitate online file preview through DeOSS. * Refactored DeOSS file upload and download service modules, further separating different business logic for easier future maintenance and upgrades. **Blockchain Explorer (**[**Substats**](https://substats.cess.cloud/)**):** * Fixed issues with inaccurate transaction data chart display in the new blockchain browser. * Corrected errors in the active account statistics for storage nodes in the new blockchain browser. **Testnet** =========== **Overview:** ============= 144 days after the [v0.7.6](https://github.com/CESSProject/cess/releases/tag/v0.7.6) testnet was launched. More details on [CESS blockchain explorer](https://substats.cess.cloud/). If you encounter any issues building a node, please seek assistance on [CESS Discord](https://discord.gg/cess). * **29** consensus nodes * **10,688** storage nodes * **23.30 PiB** verified storage space * **30.40 PiB** total storage space **Event:** The miner reward event for the [CESS](https://cess.cloud/) testnet continued as storage and consensus miners can earn points by participating. The ongoing miner reward event in the CESS testnet incentivizes participation from storage and consensus miners, allowing them to earn points while contributing to the network’s growth and development. **Community Activities** ======================== * CESS Testnet is now available on SubWallet, offering users seamless integration and enhanced security. This integration allows users to get started with CESS on SubWallet Extension v1.2.5 and Mobile v1.1.65, providing a smooth and secure experience. This marks an important milestone as the CESS network continues to expand its reach and functionality. ![](https://storage.googleapis.com/papyrus_images/460d524fa07c64941c546e2d179fcc0ced304bb7e44095c9697148c876b8ffb4.webp) * CESS is excited to announce its participation in IVSCrypto2024 as a Gold sponsor! Thank you IVS Official for the warm welcome. We look forward to an amazing event.
