I request all developers attention ๐
The survey has been truly helpful to many throughout the years and has delivered important insights (e.g. https://t.co/kX6UG4xnkX).
Share with your community, and if you're a developer, please take the survey!
Maybe there will never be another Cardano, all coins now go for 70% pre - mine and this trend continues. They have very heavy insider allocations and employ a pretty much employ a notion of BaaB - Blockchain as a Buisness / Company Model. Typically those blockchains use BFT consensus (sharded or not) with 33% honest majority.
Some innovations there in other chains are interesting and it would be great to bring them one day to Cardano, especially:
- UTxO-HD, to keep node memory requirements low
- state pruning for node operators (if somebody doesn't want to store the full ledger or doesn't need to)
- recursive snarks enabled cardano-node
- zkLogin (SUI)
- e.g. gRPC / WebSocket / REST connectors in the cardano-node
- (pretty much what Midnight is building)
- Minotaur (consensus such that resources are shared and multi-resource consensus)
- Horizontally scalable L2 with dApp elastic scaling (e.g. Midgard L2 - game changer)
- Cardano supported DA for Validiums (SKY)
- Rollups support on L1
- Ouroboros Peras
- Ouroboros Leios / Input Endorsers (inspired by Bitcoin Prism I believe)
- Tiered Pricing, split blockchain bandwidth into buckets with different prices
- Hydra L2: incremental commit and inter-head communication
- substrate stack (partner chain framework)
- mutexo by @MicheleHarmonic
- CIP-113 for clawbackable / freezable assets as well as smart contract based royalties for NFTs
- Oracle network utilizing partner chains
- explore protocols for cross chain swaps
The key is that our Cardano blockchain is very solid, we are adding on top of strong base, not flaky base just to immediately get users and think about technology later.
All of this above with Nakamoto Style Consensus, 51% honest majority security without reducing it to BFT, 33% honest majority which pretty much every "modern BaaB" chain does these days. At Cardano's level of decentralisation and very high MAV of ca. 35, this is a blockchain that could handle billions of transfers in value moving forward without a fear that a few actors could easily attack it (which BFT 33% honest majority consensus allows you cause liveness issues from having as little as 33% stake of the network).
Where I am standing it is impossible not to be bullish on where we going. Cardano is home. Where I am standing I believe other users fall pray to other blockchains marketing gimmicks without seeing and fully understanding innovations here.
#Cardano
If you are in Dubai next week, and always wanted to get in touch with CLIO1 people: please let us know!
We are happy to talk about parameters, costs, rewards, but also about the many projects CLIO1 is involved in.
What do you do as a #Cardano stakepool operator when the chain keeps growing and growing? A year ago at 75GB we are currently at about 125GB.
Here is what CLIO1 has tested for several months and using on some mainnet nodes. (spoil -75%)

@danny_cryptofay Thanks Danny. Just listened to my own close out report.
Let's see if we can find some more visual material to give a layman an insight into what happens around the clock in the Cardano network ...
Who wants to see what effects #Cardano 's increase from k150 to 500 had in December 2020. We collected relevant data and wrote reports at that time. History experience and what you learn from it is also part of good governance. https://t.co/KhpOc8n8kv
@hoskytoken When CLIO1 - a tribute to the Greek muse of history - was branded and launched, no one even knew about ITN.
Since then, many worthless things have happened.... they are counted from 2..3..4 to 500 trillion
There is something new for #Cardano Stake Pool operators: The first poll survey is available in the PreProd testnet.
Everything an SPO needs to know is available at https://t.co/UvVX1ytGKO
It was a honor to showcase a low-energy #Cardano stakepool and produce most of our epoch376 blocks (Sat-Sun-Mon) directly at the Lausanne convention center.
Who would be crazy enough to run a mainnet pool with 35 million ada at an event like #CardanoSummit2022 to mint some blocks in front of #Cardano folks? It's @ClioPool, if you bump into him he is happy to talk about security precautions. โคต๏ธ
@ChrtyPool Thanks.
Short explanation: pledge was raised in agreement with pledge partner. after a successful check (all ok), the partner claimed the catalyst voting rewards and moved them away from his wallet. it's fixed now, and will not have any effects on rewards or block production.
Addition to yesterday: by counting adopted blocks depending on how many slots/secs they were away from the previous block (blue), we can see (orange) this often happened in 1-3 secs. The 2nd graph shows the last epoch, when significantly more scarce blocks were adopted. Capacity+
Header pipelining improves this time.
By calculating the average values for all blocks of a day and string them together for 60 days, you can see how the delivery times develop and decline. 5/n
@Leo_Delegator @adamKDean Exactly. While SPOs update their node versions, part of the new codebase becomes active immediately (p2p if enabled in config, or pipelining)
the consensus part of the codebase needs an aligned HF event, where all nodes activate the prepared functionality at the same second=slot
what if I tell you that the first improvements of the #Cardano Vasil upgrade are already becoming visible?
The #hardforkcombinator allows pool operators to install the new codebase in advance. The consensus parts of it will then be activated at the defined HF time. 1/n
Since mid-August, when the pool operators started to prepare their nodes for Vasil, you can see a significant decrease in the delivery times for the blocks. 6/n
