DMD Diamond Blockchain Updates — July 2026

Another month of active development has come to a close. Here are the developments that took place on the blockchain in July 2026 👇

▶️ The Layer-1 DMDv4 continues to run smoothly. Thanks to all validators and delegated stakers participating in securing the blockchain.

▶️ We released a newer upgrade of the Diamond-UI, with enhanced validator and delegator profiles, and historical reward-based performance metrics, making it easier for both validators and delegators to evaluate validator performance and make informed staking decisions.

Diamond-UI remains the central point where users interact with our blockchain. The link: https://ui.bit.diamonds/.

▶️ We announced a new DMD Diamond Development Team Lead. He has been deeply involved in the DMD Diamond codebase for a long time, with robust experience in smart contracts and protocol development. We are confident his experience and technical leadership would drive the DMD Diamond’s project positively.

▶️ We introduced some improvements to our development processes, planning, and project organisations, aimed to improve transparency, task prioritisation and collaboration among the team. This is in a direction to position our layer1 chain for the future when it starts to accommodate more traffic from project builders.

▶️ On the project board; we have prioritized finishing up multichain integration starting with Axelar, finalising the research roadmap on the suitable on-chain DEX functionality with DMD Diamond, and that of stablecoin pairing strategy. This is in a direction to ease project operations on top of our layer1.

On-chain validator chat-room and censorship-resistance governance communication still stand on the future roadmap. In the meantime, we have the validator-owners channel on the Discord for DAO communication and deliberations.

▶️ The DMD Diamond Naming System is close to readiness. Most end-to-end testing on its use-cases have already been done. Core functionalities are already working. We only have a few bugs requiring our developer’s attention. Once that is taken care of, the DMD Diamond Naming System will move to the next phase of final approval and deployment to the mainnet.

The DMD Diamond Naming System introduces decentralized identity and human-readable addressing to the DMD Diamond blockchain. It allows users to register unique usernames as NFTs (ERC-721) linked to wallet addresses. These names can function as:

wallet aliases
chat handles
DNS-compatible identifiers
identity anchors across DMD Diamond ecosystem tools

Each name is fully owned on-chain, transferable, and verifiable. All name management will occur through the DMD Diamond UI (https://ui.bit.diamonds/) which connects directly to the blockchain. Users can search names, register names, activate/deactivate names, renew ownership, view history, and transfer names.

▶️ Again, If anyone wants to monitor their service nodes and get notified if anything changes regarding stakes, scores, or connectivity reports, we have created a small Telegram bot for that – https://t.me/dmd_chain_bot. Also, delegate stakers who want to see how the validator they staked on top performs can utilize it, see what is happening, and see how the stake on that validator grows each epoch it is part of the active set.

Feel free to use it if you want and give us feedback on community channels!

▶️ Here’s a reminder that the DMD Diamond blockchain (DMDv4) is a fully EVM-compatible Layer 1 ecosystem, aimed at developers and project builders who want to take advantage of its industry-first abilities. This is made possible by our implementation of the world’s first cooperative HBBFT consensus, supplemented by the POSDAO validator election mechanism.

MEV-resistant technology is our core feature! other key industry-first abilities your projects gain by running on top of the DMD Diamond blockchain:

✔ EVM Compatibility – Seamlessly deploy Ethereum-based smart contracts

✔ Fast & Low-Cost Transactions – Optimized for speed and efficiency

✔ Dynamic Blocktime & Instant Finality – No waiting, no rollbacks

✔ Fully Decentralized & DAO-Governed – A blockchain owned by its community

✔ Enhanced Security & Censorship Resistance – Built for the future

✔ Improved Randomness & Front-Running Prevention – Fairer for all users

It is a permissionless blockchain that allows you to deploy your smart contract or project on top of it. The DMD Diamond blockchain has been community-driven, without a pre-mine or ICO. It had a similar fair launch to Bitcoin and has existed since 2013, with a finite maximum supply of 4.38 million native DMD Diamond coins in circulation. You can learn more in our Whitepaper: https://github.com/DMDcoin/whitepaper/wiki/A.-Home

▶️ The DMD Diamond grant program is still active! It aims to support the development of new decentralized applications (dApps) and tools on top of our ecosystem. The initiative seeks to expand the DMD Diamond ecosystem through projects in DeFi, GameFi, NFTs, and other areas.

Teams with creative and practical solutions can receive funding of up to $5,000, and the best project will be awarded a full validator node with 10,000 DMD. The program fosters the creation of a secure, decentralized, and scalable network. More details on how to apply for the grant can be found here: https://diamonddmd.com/

▶️ We are now in the third phase of DMDv4 airdrop claiming for v4 coins. 50% of your DMDv3 snapshot coin balances are claimable on the v4 airdrop for v4 coins now, as agreed with the v4 whitepaper. The claiming guide: https://github.com/DMDcoin/whitepaper/wiki/I.-Claiming-v4-coins-User-Guide

The v4 airdrop claiming timeline for DMDv4 coins (swapped in a 1:1 manner with preexisting v3 snapshot coin balances):

👉 The first 3 months for 100% v4 airdrop claim for v4 coins has ended (DMDv4 mainnet launch date of Oct 13th, 2025 – January 13th, 2026)

👉 Months 3–6: 75% claim (ended)

👉 Months 6–60: 50% claim (ongoing)

👉 After 60 months: 0% claim

Note: When interacting with your DMDv3 wallet, ensure that an “I” signature is generated. Copy the signature and the message that generated it exactly, without additional spaces, tabs, or characters into the claiming UI to claim your v4 coins successfully.

Here is also a link to the v3 snapshot coin balances: https://github.com/DMDcoin/whitepaper/wiki/T.-Mainnet-Snapshot

▶️ Remember, as a community-driven blockchain, it is our shared community effort to increase DMD Diamond’s buy-pressure and overall liquidity on exchanges where the coin is listed if we want a higher price. Additionally, the ecosystem requires our collaborative efforts to stay ahead of the future of heterogeneous, interoperable blockchains. Therefore, we look forward to your suggestions for improving the code development and documentation on GitHub: https://github.com/dmdcoin

▶️ Again, we are a transparent and open-source ecosystem. We embrace complete, open development with transparent issues and boards that prioritize tasks.
