It’s with the utmost gratitude that we announce our completion of the Shentu Incentivized Testnet. Our community has grown rapidly and has taken the time to learn about how the CertiK Chain network operates at high and low level. As of this moment, we’ve onboarded thousands of DeepWallet accounts, and have increased our Twitter community members by ~1688%! Thanks to all the support we’ve received, we’re now ready to move forward to the next phase. This also means that the Shentu Games are going to be paused. Now, we will make sure all participants are sorted in terms of points received or any other outstanding items.
Currently, we're working on migrating all of the points into the Shentu Games Dashboard within the DeepWallet. Make sure to look for your points there. This includes the 'Creating a DeepWallet points.'
⚠️⚠️⚠️ Please note that the games below are concluded/paused as our Incentivized Testnet Phase has concluded. ⚠️⚠️⚠️

🏆Claim Rewards
It’s never a bad day to claim rewards! You can accomplish this mission if you’ve delegated your stake to a Validator and you’ve earned staking rewards to claim. In the Portfolio page, click on the Stakings tab, choose the Validator which you’d like to claim rewards from, and click on the ‘Claim (green)’ button. Once you’ve done this, you’ll need to indicate the amount of rewards you want to claim, confirm the transaction, and copy the TXID. To earn 100 points, you’ll head over to the dashboard, paste the TXID, retweet this tweet, tag one friend and hashtag #ShentuGames and paste the retweet link. Please note that this game can only be completed once.
For this mission, you’ll get to tour both Solidity and DeepSEA code. We’ve prepared some sample code via our github repo to help you deploy your first contract to the CertiK Chain and the best part is, anyone can participate in this game! The sample contracts are titled ‘TicTacToe.sol’ and ‘Token.ds’. You can Deploy both of these to score 150 points per contract, earning a total of 300 points!
Beware! Deploying smart contracts can be expensive, so make sure to get some CTK from the faucet first to maintain an appropriate balance.
1. Log into the DeepWallet 2. Click on the Contracts tab 3. Click on the link to the github repo 4. Choose one of the smart contracts (TicTacToe.sol or Token.ds) 5. Copy the code 6. Back in the DeepWallet, paste the code 7. Choose the corresponding language (DeepSEA or Solidity) 8. Choose a compiler 9. Deploy!
If you receive an error such as “out of gas: out of gas in location: WritePerByte; gasWanted: 132063, gasUsed: 136151“ then that means you’ll need to increase the network fee.
Make sure to copy your TX ID and head over to the Shentu Games Dashboard to claim your points! If you need some additional guidance, watch CTK Basics - Smart Contract Deploy.
You’ll also need to retweet the Game 4 announcement and include the retweet link when you claim your points:
For this activity, head over to the DeepWallet Shentu Games Dashboard and click on the ‘Incentivized’ tab. Next, click on the ‘Generate a Random Number’ game contract link. This will take you to a page where you can deploy a contract by completing a transaction which generates a number for you. There’s no need to input an amount, leave it at zero and just submit the TX. You’ll earn 100 points after completing these instructions! Copy the TX ID, then in the Shentu Games Dashboard, paste the TX ID and the link to your retweet.

🦄 Blockthereum's CertiKShield Pool
A CertiKShield Pool has been initiated by Blockthereum for 25,000 $CTK. The CertiK Foundation matches the amount 1:1 (25,000 $CTK). The pool is officially activated and $CTK holders stake another 25,000 $CTK. CertiK also matches this amount of 25,000 $CTK, and the pool now consists of 100,000 $CTK.
Blockthereum now has protection of up to 2x their stake of 25,000 $CTK, which means that if there is a bug, smart contract hack or malfunction, they can pay up to 50,000 $CTK. To ensure that the pool is always fully collateralized, of the total 100,000 $CTK, Blockthereum’s max of 50,000 $CTK is already reserved, meaning only 50,000 CTK is unreserved and left for purchase.
Alice, a $BTK holder, purchases a Shield (protection) for 1,000 $CTK which means that she’s covered up to 4x (4000 $CTK) if something happens to her $BTK, Blockthereum tokens. Alice makes a swap of $BTK to $ETH in the Blockthereum DEX but unfortunately, a smart contract error occurs and her $BTK tokens, worth 4000 $CTK are lost! What should Alice do now?
As a shield purchaser, Alice can create a Claim Proposal to reimburse the amount she lost and get back her 4000 $CTK. Her claim proposal is as follows: Title: Blockthereum DEX Bug Description: Hey everyone! I lost all my funds when trying to swap $BTK due to the Blockthereum DEX bug. Fortunately, I purchased CertiKShield for 1000 $CTK. If this proposal is accepted, I can recover some of the funds I lost.
Calling all #ShentuGamers! You can now vote on Alice’s Claim Proposal. In order to move the proposal into the voting period, you must deposit any amount of CTK to show your support. Once a total of 512 $CTK is deposited, all CTK users are able to vote!
Game Steps
250 points: Go to the governance tab via your DeepWallet account and deposit any amount of CTK into the proposal
Note: Only the users who deposit tokens into the proposal will be rewarded. Points will be awarded once per user.
250 points: Once the proposal has entered the voting period, cast your vote!
Note: Anyone can participate in the voting process!
As always, remember to retweet, copy the link for evidence and submit in the dashboard to claim points! Once you've voted or deposited, make sure to get your TX ID for evidence as well so we can reward you with points!

🏗 Security Legos
As mentioned above, Oracle operators respond with a security score between 0 and 255. The score is aggregated and then the smart contract calling the Decentralized Security Oracle can make a decision about what to do with this score. Bob, a $CTK holder decided to send his funds to a brand new yield farming protocol called 🥔 TARO. Before he made this transaction, he received some information via his DeepWallet regarding the level of security risk it presented.
For this game, you'll have to review his proposal and the evidence he submitted to vote the right way. Only people who vote correctly will receive points. As always, the proposal must first pass the deposit stage in order to go to voting. Make sure to gather the community and communicate with each other regarding which is the correct way to vote once you get to that stage.
Title: 🥔 TARO Description: Hey everyone! I’m Bob and I decided to lend some of my $CTK in a brand new DeFi platform called $TARO. Unfortunately, $TARO’s contract experienced a critical exploit and got hacked! I’ve lost all my funds. I added a screenshot of the TX Confirmation screen from DeepWallet for your review. Please help me get this proposal approved so that I can recover some of the funds I lost.
