Cardano Reaches New Scaling Milestone That Might Allow Nodes To Sync Faster
Cardano is about setting a milestone in scaling solution Mithril, as IOG CTO, Romain Pellerin, tweeted about bootstrapping a Cardano node through a Mithril snapshot within minutes. Mithril was listed as one of the ways Cardano intended to scale at the start of the year. Cardano builder IOG introduced Mithril during the 2021.
The IOG team recently stated it has been working on a first use case to leverage Mithril to quickly and efficiently bootstrap a full Cardano node. The Cardano network connects thousands of nodes into one unified system, where they communicate with other nodes to provide information about new blocks and transactions. Because every node has a complete copy of the blockchain, synchronizing nodes requires each new node to download and verify each block, which adds time to the process.
