High level overview​

This week, the Mithril team worked on implementing the client in the explorer to enable direct verification of certificates from the browser. They also addressed the configuration issue in the signer node service, which occasionally resulted in signers not registering their keys after a restart. Additionally, the team kept implementing a mock aggregator to strengthen Mithril client tests in WASM, continued working on threat modeling and risk analysis for P2P networking, and progressed with the devnet upgrade to support the Conway era.

Finally, they worked on enhancing node communications between Mithril and Cardano and completed the upgrade of the Cardano node topology used in the Mithril networks' infrastructure.

High level overview​

This week, the Mithril team completed aggregator optimizations, enabling the certification of new data types without introducing a new era. They also facilitated the selection of these data types through a simple configuration parameter. Additionally, the team started implementing a mock aggregator to strengthen Mithril client tests in WASM, kept working on threat modeling and risk analysis for P2P networking, and progressed with the implementation of a testing Mithril network for SanchoNet.

Finally, they worked on some optimizations and refactoring of the Mithril client CLI and started upgrading the Cardano node topology used in the Mithril networks' infrastructure.

This week, the Mithril team completed the adaptation of the Mithril client library for WASM compilation, providing a JavaScript API for it. They also completed the proof of concept to demonstrate that a subset of Cardano transactions is part of the entire transactions set. The refactoring of the Mithril client CLI with the Mithril client library was also finalized. Additionally, the team kept working on the threat modeling and risk analysis for P2P networking, along with progressing in the implementation of a testing Mithril network for SanchoNet.

Finally, they started implementing an expiration mechanism for the open messages in the aggregator, and they completed the upgrade of Rust dependencies with breaking changes.

This week, the Mithril team made progress in adapting the Mithril client library for WASM compilation and providing a JavaScript API for it. They also completed the optimization of the aggregator's performance. Additionally, the team initiated the implementation of a testing Mithril network for SanchoNet and conducted threat modeling and risk analysis for P2P networking.

Finally, they enhanced the developer experience of the Mithril client library by providing ready-to-run examples in the repository and implemented a workflow to manually publish libraries on crates.io.

High level overview​

This week, the Mithril team released the initial version of the Mithril client library, enabling developers to integrate core Mithril features into their applications. They also released a new distribution, 2347.0, which includes support for slim certificate production by the aggregator, along with bug fixes and performance improvements.

The team also introduced the initial version of Cardano/Mithril node communication enhancements, implemented by TxPipe as part of the Catalyst project. They made progress in decentralizing Mithril networks, including testing the Mithril peer-to-peer (P2P) relay on a test network and conducting threat modeling and risk analysis for P2P networking. Additionally, they started working on adapting the Mithril client library for WASM compilation and made progress in optimizing aggregator performance.

Finally, they fixed inaccuracies in the verbosity level of logs across most nodes and worked on troubleshooting for some users.
