REVOLUTION IN $SOL ! 🚀 Anza proposes the "BIGGEST CHANGE" for the network that seeks the speed of Web2! ⚡
Anza, a company that was born from Solana Labs, has just gone all out with a proposal that could change the game forever: a new consensus protocol called Alpenglow. 🤯 They say it's the "biggest change in the core protocol of #solana ever"! 😲
What is this Alpenglow that sounds like science fiction? 🧐 It consists of Votor and Rotor. Votor handles processing voting transactions and block finalization, while Rotor is a data dissemination protocol that aims to replace the famous proof-of-history system of Solana. What's the goal? To reduce the time it takes for nodes to agree on the state of the network! ⏱️
The researchers at Anza are euphoric ✨. They claim that Alpenglow "will break the limits of latency" and hope to achieve block finalization in an incredible 150 milliseconds. That means competing directly with the internet infrastructure you use every day! 🌐💻 Just imagine, if #sol becomes as fast as Web2, it could open the doors to entirely new applications that demand real-time performance! 📈
Votor, for its part, aims to finalize blocks in one round if 80% of the participation is active, and in two rounds if only 60% respond. Designed to be super efficient! 🚦
Watch out! ⚠️ The project’s technical document clarifies that Alpenglow will not be the magic solution that completely eliminates interruptions in the Solana network. The network still relies on a single production client, Agave, which makes it vulnerable if this client fails. However, there is hope on the horizon: a new independent validator client, Firedancer, is scheduled to launch this year, which should help diversify and strengthen the network. 💪
