What is Mainnet:

Mainnet is a blockchain running its own network with its own technology and protocol. It is a live blockchain where its own cryptocurrencies or tokens are in use.

When PolySwarm Mainnet goes live, the PolySwarm threat detection marketplace will begin transacting with PolySwarm’s ERC20 token; Nectar (NCT) that operates on the Ethereum Mainnet blockchain.

Why is this important:

The PolySwarm threat detection marketplace is where security experts compete with each other to protect you. When Mainnet is live these security experts will be using live PolySwarm Nectar (NCT tokens) to back their assertions. The correct security experts are rewarded with tokens from those who are incorrect.

A publicly viewable dashboard tracks key marketplace activities as well as the daily NCT volume and 7-day daily averages.
