Federated Sidechains Alpha Release

Stratis Federated Sidechains

This release introduces our Federated Gateway technology running a new sidechain, the Apex blockchain, on testnet.
We also introduce newly extended wallet functionality that allows cross-chain transactions: Deposits and Withdrawals to and from the Sidechain.

In this alpha, advanced users can create their own new sidechain network, with their own coin, and fund it via with TSTRAT through their own federation.
Please refers to the docs here and here for how to do that.

The Apex Network

A great way to get started is to try our pre-setup Apex network which has everything you need to try out the end product. You can setup two wallets, a Stratis Mainchain wallet and a Apex Sidechain wallet and perform cross-chain Deposits and Withdrawals.
