This week, the Mithril team started working on the decentralization of the Mithril networks with a proof of concept of peer-to-peer (P2P) networking between nodes. The team kept working on the adaptation of the Mithril client as a library, on the deterministic computation of the transaction history of an address from the immutable files, and on the refactoring that will fix the bottleneck of the key registration in the aggregator. Additionally, they published a security advisory for the Mithril relay.

Finally, they enhanced the CI/CD to publish multiple packages to crates.io and started improving the developer experience with the Mithril devnet.

This week, the Mithril team worked on the distribution of the Mithril client as a library that will be distributed on crates.io, the Rust dependencies repository. The team also worked on the deterministic computation of the transaction history of an address from the immutable files and started fixing a bottleneck in the aggregator that limits the ingestion of signatures.

Finally, they kept working on the activation of Cloudflare on the infrastructure and fixed some bugs in the Nix CI.

This week, the Mithril team updated a proposal for implementing Mithril in a light wallet and created a discussion on implementing Mithril in a light wallet to receive feedback and contributions from the community.

They also completed a proof of concept to run a Mithril client in a browser with WASM and worked on enhancing the explorer UI with SPO tickers displayed next to the pool IDs. Additionally, the team finalized a tool for benchmarking aggregator performance over a range of signer and client loads and for visualizing the results of these benchmarks.

Finally, the team added a root page to the aggregator endpoint, created a status page for the Mithril networks, and added a section about KES key rotation in the signer documentation for SPOs.

The Mithril team has released a new distribution 2337.0, which includes the following enhancements: support for zstandard compression of snapshot archives, support for the Cardano node version in snapshot metadata, and support for recording snapshot download statistics in the aggregator.

They also completed the refactoring and standardization of the errors in the Mithril nodes and published an Architectural decision record on the documentation website. Additionally, they kept working on adding Cloudflare protection to the infrastructure.

Finally, the team fixed a performance issue on the stress test tool for the aggregator and made some improvements to the documentation for SPOs.

This week, the Mithril team has completed the refactoring of the terraform deployment workflows in GitHub actions, and the implementation of snapshot compression parameters in the deployments. They kept working on the refactoring and standardization of the errors in the Mithril nodes. The team also completed the implementation of Cloudflare protection for the aggregator infrastructure and started working on its deployment and activation in the Mithril networks. Additionally, they worked on recording download statistics on the aggregator which will be used to produce usage reports.

Finally, they kept working on the aggregator performance bottleneck that occurs with high client traffic and started creating a new distribution.
