MbongoChain is an open-source, Rust-native Layer 1 blockchain focused on compute-first economics (AI, GPU, heterogeneous compute) with a long-term vision combining PoS + Proof-of-Useful-Work.

We have completed Phase 1 (Foundation) and are now opening Phase 2.

We are looking for contributors and developers — Rust and non-Rust — who want to work on real systems, not hype.

Project Status (Important)

  • Phase 1 is complete and frozen

  • Phase 2 is active

  • Active development happens on the dev branch

  • main is protected and read-only (milestone history)

You will not be asked to rush unsafe code into production.

Who We’re Looking For

Core Rust Developers (limited spots)

You work close to the protocol core.

Skills:

  • Rust (required)

  • Distributed systems, blockchains, or low-level systems

  • Experience with Substrate / Solana / Cosmos / Near / Aptos is a plus

Scope:

  • Core types, state, storage, cryptography

  • No API/UI work

  • Strict review process

This group is small. Code quality > speed.

Non-Rust Technical Contributors (very welcome)

You do not need Rust to contribute meaningfully.

Useful skills:

  • Python

  • TypeScript / JavaScript

  • Go

  • C++ / CUDA (GPU & compute work)

  • Bash / PowerShell

Example tasks:

  • Developer tooling & CLI

  • Testing & QA (unit, property, fuzzing)

  • Simulations & experiments

  • Infrastructure & testnet automation

  • Documentation (technical, not marketing)

These contributors move the project fast.

Specialists (high impact)

You may contribute without touching core code.

Profiles:

  • AI / ML engineers (GPU inference, compute workloads)

  • Security researchers (threat modeling, audits)

  • Economics / tokenomics contributors

  • DevOps / infra engineers

  • Technical writers

What This Is NOT

  • Not a “get rich quick” crypto project

  • Not hype-driven

  • Not a place to push unreviewed protocol changes

This is a long-term, serious engineering effort.

How to Get Started (Simple)

  1. Check open issues labeled phase-2

  2. Pick one that matches your skills

  3. Work on the dev branch

  4. Open a PR

  5. Ask questions publicly if something is unclear

Compensation & Motivation

  • Open-source first

  • Bounties for clearly scoped work

  • Early contributors get long-term recognition and trust

  • No empty promises — only what’s written counts

  • Onboarding: docs/onboarding.md

Final word

If you:

  • care about clean architecture

  • prefer clarity over hype

  • want to build something real

You’re welcome here.
