High level overview​

This week, the Mithril team updated the CIP of the DMQ protocol and its implementation in Pallas and Mithril nodes, introducing changes to the message structure and the n2c local notification mini-protocol. They also worked on preparing the pre-release of the following distribution and continued collaborating with the innovation team on prototyping a SNARK proving circuit for Mithril certificates. Additionally, the team continued to prototype a Mithril/Cardano bundle within a Docker image.

Finally, they enhanced the CI workflows used to verify the integrity of a restored Cardano database and made progress refactoring the STM cryptographic library.

High level overview​

This week, the Mithril team completed the implementation of the mock DMQ node to support end-to-end testing of decentralized signature diffusion. They worked on updating the CIP of the DMQ protocol and its implementations in Pallas and Mithril nodes. They also worked on refactoring the Cardano database verification new command to provide better error messages. Additionally, the team continued collaborating with the innovation team on prototyping a SNARK proving circuit for Mithril certificates.

Finally, they kept prototyping a Mithril/Cardano bundle in a Docker image and made progress refactoring the STM cryptographic library.

This week, the Mithril team completed the certificate chain synchronization in the follower aggregator. They also continued implementing the mock DMQ node to support end-to-end testing of decentralized signature diffusion. Additionally, the team worked on enhancing the 'verify' command on the client CLI to provide a detailed list of invalid or missing immutable files and kept preparing for the upgrade to Cardano node v.10.5 and the upcoming Mithril distribution.

Finally, they worked on refactoring the 'CardanoNetwork' entity, enhancing the maintainability of the new website, and made progress refactoring the STM cryptographic library.
