Cardano launches dynamic P2P networks to improve its resilience and decentralization

Cardano developers have released Dynamic P2P in v.1.35.6. This is a new update focused on improving the performance, resilience, and decentralization of the scientific blockchain. 

Cardano, one of the most important blockchains in the crypto industry and, at the same time, the first scientific chain based on peer review, has announced the launch of a new node version that will allow for a substantial improvement in the network's communication features. 

This is node version v1.35.6, which implements a functionality called dynamic peer-to-peer network or Dynamic P2P

This new functionality, integrated into the aforementioned node version, will allow Cardano to improve its performance, resilience, and decentralization by automating the peer selection process and simplifying communication between distributed nodes. 

Input Output Global (IOG), the company behind the development of the Cardano network, highlighted that the arrival of Dynamic P2P represents an important evolution in the development and growth of the blockchain. 

For Cardano developers, chain stability, as well as uptime and resilience to failures to continue executing operations normally, are characteristics that are taken very seriously.

Dynamic P2P improves Cardano network resilience

In this new node version, the Cardano platform developers they manifest which have implemented notable design improvements, which aim towards increased uptime as well as stability in network operations. 

Thus, improving these two characteristics, uptime and stability, contribute to improving the resilience of the blockchain network in general. That is, Cardano can increase its adaptability and flexibility in the face of failures and adverse conditions.

“The network design aims to minimize communication delays and maximize network resilience against failures, capacity constraints, or malicious behavior.”

The new upgrade, as highlighted by IOG's marketing and communications department, also gives the Cardano network unparalleled scalability.

Dynamic P2P is not currently publicly available on the Cardano network. However, IOG and the Cardano Foundation are working to ensure that the rollout and launch of this new functionality goes smoothly in the coming weeks.

Mithril and new developments in the scientific blockchain

In addition to Dynamic P2P, Cardano developers continue to work on the network’s core technology, smart contracts, governance, and services. 

According to an Essential Cardano update released on Friday, the number of Cardano-based smart contracts has surpassed 6.000, while the number of processed transactions has reached 63 million. 

About Mithril, a protocol focused on blockchain speed and efficiencyCardano developers reported that they are making the final adjustments for its beta launch on the main network.
