Mainnet Snapshot Update

The Waterfall Mainnet snapshot is now 5× smaller.

The current chain state requires over 300 GiB, while the new snapshot is approximately 70 GiB. This significantly reduces the disk space required to download the snapshot and initialize a node from it.

Before replacing your node data, make sure your validator keys are backed up.

Documentation update.

Several sections that were previously marked Coming Soon are now available:
• BlockDAG – how parallel block production and the spine chain work https://t.co/jElGgPy371
• Consensus – validator roles, finality, rewards, penalties, and lifecycle https://t.co/XI7lFkJ72V
• Subnetworks – Waterfall's research on horizontal scaling through graph clustering https://t.co/zIgmwKthSq

This update also aligns terminology with v0.4.0, refreshes performance and staking information, adds research references, and improves link previews for shared documentation.

We're excited to share some great news.

After a thorough technical review, the Linux Foundation's Technical Advisory Committee (TAC) voted to elevate Waterfall from Labs to Incubation. This milestone was earned through a rigorous evaluation process.

Thank you to everyone who believed in our vision and supported us along the way.

A more detailed announcement will be shared soon.

We are currently preparing our codebase for submission to the Linux Foundation.

Since the original codebase was based on Ethereum components under GPL/LGPL, we need to separate our own code and align the relevant parts under the Apache 2.0 license to meet Linux Foundation requirements.

The dev team has already completed around 70% of this work and is continuing with the remaining code separation and license alignment.

📈 Who sustains the highest throughput in Web3?

We ranked blockchains by the highest TPS sustained over 100 consecutive blocks on mainnet

Real performance, not just a single spike

⚡️ Waterfall Network: Scaling Results (Tests 25-29)
We’ve wrapped up our latest private network tests. Test 29 (2s slots / 35 blocks) emerged as the optimal configuration for high-performance throughput.

The Performance:

175,000 TPS (Peak)

128,333 TPS (Sustained)

What we learned:
🔹 It’s about staying power: Reaching peak speed is one thing; the real challenge is keeping that speed consistent (retention).
🔹 It’s about smart scaling: Shorter slots combined with higher block density drive the highest performance gains.
🔹 It’s about hardware synergy: While we used standard nodes, more CPU cores directly translate to better stability under heavy loads.

Scaling is a constant balance of timing, density, and hardware. These results are just the foundation. We are already moving to the next testing phase to push these limits even further.

Details on Recent Technical Issues

We experienced two technical events in early February.

Feb 4: In one data center, some nodes lost connection to the main network. Since more than one-third of the validators were located there, the network temporarily could not collect enough votes to reach consensus. After connectivity was restored and the nodes were restarted, consensus and normal network operation were restored.

Feb 11: One network participant ran identical validators on different nodes. As a result, two valid blocks could sometimes be produced at the same time, which led to forks and unstable network behavior.

Additionally, a bug was identified: on some nodes, a valid block could be rejected on the first attempt, causing the node to enter a syncing state and temporarily stop participating in consensus. This issue was fixed. You can update your Docker nodes, and a desktop app update will be released shortly.
