EOS Network, in its latest upgrade, Leap 6.0 or Savanna, aims to enhance efficiency and decentralization. The upgrade will launch the Savanna consensus algorithm, which will bring faster finality and transaction times to the EOS platform, surpassing previous upgrades like Antelope Leap 3.1. This algorithm will revamp the blockchain, improving security and user experience.
The upgrade is set to release on July 10th, with a three-week transition period for developers and nodes. All EOS nodes are urged to make the necessary upgrades for a smooth transition. The mainnet version of Leap 6.0 will be launched via a hard fork on July 31st.
The Savanna consensus algorithm will introduce instant finality and faster irreversible transactions. By utilizing advanced cryptographic techniques, the algorithm enhances scalability and reduces time to finality. Transactions on the blockchain will now be 100X faster, taking less than a second to complete. This improves network efficiency and user experience.
Leap 6.0 also brings enhanced privacy and potential for cryptographic innovation. The faster finality times open up opportunities for the creation of ZK-proof systems, ensuring enhanced privacy features and setting new standards in blockchain privacy and security.
EOS Network will also reconfigure its block-producing nodes. The network plans to split the functions into Block Proposers and Block Finalizers. This separation aims to enhance security, efficiency, and inter-blockchain communication. It also allows third parties to observe the chain without participating in block creation.
