The network allows you to:

upgrade the protocol through on-chain governance where bakers and delegators vote on proposed amendments, earn baking rewards by staking XTZ directly or delegating to a baker without locking funds, deploy smart contracts in multiple languages including Michelson and SmartPy with formal verification support
