Here’s a recap of what we happened previous week at Shardeum:
Table of Contents
Tech
Last week, we investigated network issues; we also upgraded performance to support larger numbers of accounts, and ran tests with over 1 Million accounts per node post changes. We’re also planning a transaction consensus protocol refactor that supports large consensus group sizes better and simplifies the codebase. We also added limiting request rate as a configuration option and changed the request limit to 10 req/min instead of 1 req/10s. We added various improvements to slow down DDOS attacks on RPC servers. We also made multiple improvements in archiver and fixed bugs in explorer.
Business
We continue to onboard investors from the Shardeum seed round.
Marketing & Comms
We launched the Shardeum merch store for shipping across India; setting up a merch store for worldwide shipping is in progress. We also continued to evaluate SEO agencies, vendors for Education Program, hackathon and other events. We’re also working with the community to create content on Quora. We also reviewed, edited and published 2 blogs, and now have 5 tutorials on how to deploy smart contracts and dApps on Shardeum Liberty.
