High level overview

The Mithril team released the new distribution 2450.0, which offers stable support for Cardano node v.10.1.3 and includes bug fixes and performance improvements.

The team also continued implementing the incremental certification of the Cardano database: they kept working on creating and synchronizing the artifacts, implemented the artifact routes, and started working on the digest route for the incremental Cardano database in the aggregator REST API.

Finally, they completed the experimental cache for certificate verification in the WASM client, implemented enhancements to the CI, and fixed a bug with identifier collisions in the incremental Cardano database artifacts.

High level overview

This week, the Mithril team continued implementing the incremental certification of the Cardano database: they kept working on creating and synchronizing the artifacts. The team finished exploring solutions for signer registration in networks with multiple aggregators and updated the About Mithril section of the website. They also progressed with developing a cache for certificate verification in the WASM client.

Finally, the team accelerated the creation of signer fixtures in the tests and added execution rights to the binaries pre-built in the CI.

High level overview

This week, the Mithril team continued implementing the incremental certification of the Cardano database. They completed the computation of the message to sign and started working on creating and synchronizing the artifacts. The team also continued exploring solutions for signer registration in networks with multiple aggregators and progressed on developing a cache for certificate verification in the WASM client.

Finally, they implemented a retry mechanism in the end-to-end tests within the CI to address flakiness and investigated methods to track the origin of client requests.

High level overview

This week, the Mithril team released a new one-line installer for the pre-built Mithril binaries, simplifying the update process for SPO signers. They also published an overview of the protocol security on the documentation website. The team began implementing a new type of certification for the Cardano database to enable differential updates, scaffolding a new signed entity type, and progressing on the computation of the message to sign. Additionally, they adapted the WASM client npm package to support NodeJS and started working on a cache for certificate verification in the WASM client.

Finally, the team completed the removal of legacy store adapters from the codebase and explored solutions for signer registration in networks with multiple aggregators.

High level overview

This week, the Mithril team released a new version of the Protocol Insights dashboard. They also completed implementing the new status route in the aggregator and upgraded the explorer to display its information. Additionally, the team completed the refactoring of the beacon used to snapshot the Cardano database and started working on the activation of the Pythagoras Mithril era on the pre-release-preview network.

Finally, they worked on removing the legacy store adapters in the signer and aggregator and explored solutions for signer registration when multiple aggregators are running on a Mithril network.
