[PRESS RELEASE – Cape Town, South Africa, January 6th, 2026]
QIE Blockchain has announced the opening of its validator program to new participants, coinciding with its recent listing on the MEXC exchange and notable increases in developer adoption across its network.
Following its first global developer conference and hackathon, QIE reported participation from over 4,000 teams and the creation of 180 decentralized applications (dApps) built on the QIE mainnet. The network, which hosts four hackathons annually, continues to attract developers focused on Web3, DeFi, and on-chain gaming applications.
Validators on QIE contribute to the security and stability of the network, with a reward structure designed around long-term network sustainability. Each month, 50,000 QIE tokens are distributed to validators, with rewards set to halve every two years. The system also incorporates a deflationary mechanism, with approximately 80% of gas fees being permanently burned.
The validator onboarding process is designed to be accessible to individuals and organizations with standard virtual server infrastructure and QIE staked on the network. Technical documentation and support are available to guide new validators through the setup process.
QIE was listed on MEXC on January 6, 2026, adding to its presence on exchanges including XT and Bitmart. Upcoming integrations with third-party services such as Coinsnow, Alchemy Pay, and Changelly are expected to further enhance accessibility for developers and users globally.
