💥We measured the performance of different NIST-recommended post-quantum signatures on the average PC ((Memory - 5,8 GiB, Processor - Intel® Core™ i3-1115G4 @ 3.00ghz × 2, OS Name - Ubuntu 20.04.6 LTS, OS Type - 64-bit).

The Falcon, CRYSTALS-Dilithium and SPHINCS+ algorithms were tested.
Two parameters were studied: transaction-signing speed and signature verification speed.

For testing, we ran a loop for 1000 iterations with the following steps:

🔻 creating a random message
🔻 signing this message
🔻 signature verification

⚠️Based on the testing results, we will be able to select the optimal node configuration for maximum performance.

For example, during testing, the SPHINCS+ algorithm performed worst of all. It's heavy and too slow, so we won't be adding support for it in our wallets.

But FALCON and CRYSTALS-Dilithium turned out to be quite fast. At the same time, FALCON is faster at verification, which means that if it is not inferior in security to CRYSTALS-Dilithium, then it will be preferable to use it.

🆕 Cellframe Dashboard Update 2.12-72!

What’s new:
✅ We have redesigned the logging mechanism and eliminated redundancy. Now, logs will take up less space and will be split into several small files, which provides greater ease of use
✅ Fixed an issue with the ticker token output in the history for unstake transactions
✅ Adjusted the layout in the Diagnostics tab
✅ Redesigned the network panel, updated statuses & added an intermediate one that displays the processing of a request in the node
✅ Stabilized the node operation on MacOS

⚙️ The build includes version node 5.2-273

Announcing an updated roadmap for the preparation of the two-way bridge launch 🚀

📣 From today onwards we will be reducing staking rewards by 2 times.

❗ However, the remaining half will go to validators. The reward will be visible and able to be collected shortly after one of the forthcoming updates of Cellframe Node.

👉 This means that validators will start to see and receive significantly larger rewards, allowing them to earn more.

Is it possible to maintain the level of staking income?

❗This is the most popular question in our social networks right now.

👉 We completely understand community's excitement and we hurry to inform you that there is a way to maintain staking income at the same level - you need to either raise a masternode yourself or use the key🗝️of someone who will maintain the node and simply share income with them in the future.

We created the Cellframe Network with a unique implementation of two-layer sharding, conditional transactions, and multi-party computing💻

This provides seamless compatibility, fast🚀and cost-efficient transactions, in addition to integrated quantum security measures.

And since our platform was built from scratch, using the pure C language, t-dApps built on our SDK can be run on any device - from enterprise-level mainframes to your home refrigerator.

👉 This allows developers to create the widest possible range of applications.

We are committed to providing ample opportunities for growth and engaging audiences for projects built on our blockchain.

✅We will discuss this in more detail in one of our upcoming posts - be sure not to miss it!

⚡ Rewards for validators with auto-collection implemented!

Earlier, we reported that validator rewards would increase and that we were preparing a feature that would allow rewards to be collected for signing any blocks in the Backbone network.

You can manually collect rewards💎using the following command: block reward collect [-hashes -cert -fee]. The current block signature reward fund for validators is 1.5M CELL per year.

⚠️ This option is already available in the master branch and is available for validators!

We have also worked on automating the collection process: it is no longer necessary to manually specify the hash of each block signed by the validator. And to ensure the collection is not offset by the fee for collection, we have added a minimum limit of 10 blocks.

The total amount that will be collected in the next auto-collection transaction can be found out via the block autocollect status command.

❗ When choosing between “manual” and automatic block reward collection, auto-collection will almost always be the better option.

✅ For more information about rewards and to keep up-to-date with the latest development news, you can read in our latest worklog issue for November.
