Mithril Team Update

· 2 min read

High level overview​

This week, the Mithril team kept implementing the data type for certifying Cardano transactions within Mithril networks: they worked on adapting the Mithril explorer to support Cardano transaction verification, started implementing a more efficient transaction signing scheme, stabilized the type names in the API, and kept investigating a bug that prevents the signature of some Conway era transactions. Additionally, they have completed the first version of the Prometheus monitoring endpoint for the signer.

Finally, the team fixed a bug occuring in the publication of the npm packages of the client, enhanced the HTTP tests of the aggregator, and kept working on the KES period computation in the Pallas chain observer.
