#Interoperability #GameofZones
The much awaited Game of Zones has begun and Persistence One is all set for the month-long competition 💪
Game of Zones is a series of adversarial testnet challenges designed to prepare the Cosmos ecosystem for the upcoming launch of the IBC module.
Before the competition kicked off our CEO, Tushar Aggarwal, and CTO, Deepanshu Tripathi, talked about plans for GoZ and key take away from Game of Stakes (adversarial testnet for Cosmos Hub).
We are really excited to be part of the advent of IBC and continue on the victorious march that started in Game of Stakes (Winner 🏆: Never Jailed Category).

#Interoperability #GameofZones
Phase 1 of Game of Zones is in action and teams across the Cosmos ecosystem are demonstrating an exceptional spirit. 100+ teams are actively competing to win the challenges listed in Game of Zones.
At Persistence One, we are constantly improvising and innovating to come up with an optimised solution for each challenge. So far our team stands strong in the rankings (as per the Unofficial leaderboards) and making progress further. With competition in full swing our team is also developing opensource resources which may help other teams to perform better.
We believe real innovation comes with collaboration, and taking a step forward in the same direction we published a script to update the Relayer clients automatically in IBC for GoZ. The script supports:
🛠 Error handling
🔄 Retry on failure
⚠️ Handle failure - Makes a call if the update fails multiple times
In addition to the script, we also released a 'GoZ Updates' blog series to keep the entire Blockchain/Crypto community updated with the latest developments and activities related to Game of Zones.
Cosmos is inching towards INTEROPERABILITY. Stay tuned!

GoZ Update #1: Build up to GoZ and first 24 hours of Phase 1
We are starting GoZ Updates series with the events that led up to GoZ and what happened in the first 24 hours of Phase 1.
#Interoperability #GameofZones
Phase 1a of the Game of Zones has concluded, and due to technical issues the GoZ team has decided to restart the competition.
The main objective of the first week of the competition was connection liveness for the longest time. Persistence One successfully maintained connection for more than 3 days and we are confident that we will achieve better results in the upcoming Phases of the competition.
It has been a great learning experience for us
at Persistence One, and we are excited about the next phase. Our lessons from Phase 1a:
♦️How to set up a zone and relay transactions using IBC commands
♦️How gas price volatility affects transaction clearance likelihood
♦️Difference b/w channels and paths, and their significance
♦️How essential paths are in making IBC txns, and how to keep the paths alive by keeping clients updated
♦️How to set up a sentry for hub node to handle official outages
♦️ The semantics of IBC packets, transactions and various other IBC languages
In our latest 'GoZ Updates' blog we have summarised:
❇️Key highlight of the Phase 1
⏭What can be expected from upcoming Phases
Wishing all the best to all the participating team for the Phase 1b due to start on May 18.

GoZ Updates #2: End of Phase 1a and What to expect from Phase 2?
The first phase of Game of Zones concluded and the Cosmos ecosystem is getting ready for second phase.
#Interoperability #GameofZones
The first two phases of Game of Zones have been challenging and valuable learning experience.
We will like to congratulate all the teams for participating and performing so well in Game of Zones. Also, we thank the GoZ team for their unwavering support and relentless efforts.
Cosmos' vision of Interoperable Blockchains doesn't seem far away, and we are proud to be part of this rewarding journey.
We, at Persistence One, are trying our best to keep the community updated about the challenges and learnings of GoZ. In our latest blog, we have covered the updates from Phase 1b and Phase 2.
Achievements for @PersistenceOne:
♦️Both Persistence One zones, persistence and audit.one, won Liveness reward
♦️Most active zone-to-zone pair with @Sentinel_co in the last 24 hours of Phase 2
We wish all the teams good luck for Phase 3 of Game of Zones.

GoZ Updates #3: Phase 1b and Phase 2
This blog covers updates from Phases 1b and 2 of the Game of Zones, one of the most anticipated adversarial testnets in 2020.
#Interoperability #GameofZones
Game of Zones provided a platform to all the developers and security enthusiasts in the Cosmos ecosystem to stress test the IBC Protocol and discover the most creative implementations of the protocol.
We all witnessed some of the best deception and confusion attacks, custom zones, and the high spirit of the community in Phase 3 of GoZ. As a part of our continual efforts to keep the Cosmos and Blockchain community, in general, updated we released a blog covering the highlights of Phase 3.
The Game of Zones concluded a few weeks back, but still, some of the attacks are seeding curiosity in the minds of the Cosmos community members. In addition to that, the custom zones developed during Phase 3 have built a strong case for the IBC Protocol.
Do give it a read and looking forward to your feedback/suggestions.

GoZ Updates #4: Phase 3 and The Saga of Deception Attacks
We bring to you the fourth article from the “GoZ Updates” series by Persistence One covering the highlights of Game of Zones’ Phase 3.
#Interoperability #GameofZones
GoZ, the IBC adversarial testnet, might have ended but it was the beginning of endless possibilities that will unlock with IBC.
Going forward, as the IBC Protocol becomes production-ready and live with the Stargate Upgrade, we will see a lot more projects building in the Cosmos ecosystem and reaping the benefits of being a Cosmonaut 🧑🏽🚀
At @PersistenceOne, we continuously shared our learnings from the competition through the 'GoZ Updates' series, and today, we are sharing the final blog in the series.
In our latest blog, we have looked back at GoZ and briefly touched upon the future of IBC Protocol. Do give it a read and share your feedback with us.
