Cardano (ADA) Hydra Update: Enhanced Performance and Accessibility for Web3.0 Developers
In the latest development report, Cardano’s scaling protocol Hydra has released an upgrade to version 0.12.0, offering improved performance and accessibility for Web3.0 developers. Here are the key points:
- The Hydra team has launched version 0.12.0 of the Layer-2 scaling solution, compatible with Cardano Node version 8.1.2 and the Mithril protocol.
- The upgrade includes performance enhancements, API improvements, and code optimizations for better on-chain performance and security.
- The protocol has become fully isomorphic to Layer-1, with timed transaction support and external wallet integration.
- The Hydra team aligned the protocol’s specification with recent on-chain changes and updated to GH 9.2.7 for improved compiling times.
- A new contributor has joined the Hydra team, actively participating in the Intersect open source committee and preparing an educational masterclass for the community.
- The Mithril team has focused on enhancing clarity and reducing verbosity in logs and aggregator nodes, as well as streamlining signer registration processes.
