-
They worked on the firewall, improved protection, particularly against brute-force
-
First, there is a software update on validators and fullnodes, then the framework is updated. Also, there should be a proposal on their governance platform. Ideally, this is an on-chain voting with 50%+ positive votes.
-
The sudden update on Friday was not planned and something like this will not happen again. However, they found an important problem.
-
30 minutes after that update, there were enough working testnet validators to make the network work.
-
There is a devnet with weekly updates where the devs don’t worry about its state. The testnet is long running, where the same tokens do not disappear after a week.
-
In a normal scenario, there is no deallocation of nodes, instead pointers are set and the value is simply overwritten.
Topaz
-
The guest doesn’t like the problems of the current financial system faced by the most vulnerable, and therefore entered the crypto ecosystem.
-
There used to be communities where people exchanged items: “- I give 5$ for this, - I give 6$, and so on.” Topaz was thinking about how to attract such people so that they could hang out there.
-
They added a system where people can see the cursors of other people and thus simply interact that way.
-
Topaz now has the most features compared to other marketplace contracts.
-
Everything happens in real time and there is no need to refresh the page, which solves the problem when the item might have already been sold.
-
Their indexer can handle thousands of tps right now. Malicious collections can be ignored with it.
-
So far closed code, but plans to make it open source.
-
When there are more developers, we will see a lot more tools.
-
Topaz is hiring. Aptos is hiring.
