Here is the weekly tech update Elrond :

  1. New EVM compatible WASM VM is integrated in Elrond protocol and has been tested with several smart contracts, providing promising preliminary results.

  2. Expanded the documentation with information related to the VM, you can check the work in progress here:

  3. Block and transaction rewards have been tested, validators and block proposers now get their rewards for the produced blocks and included transactions. This covers the first part of our economic proposal article.

  4. Smart contract results & block and transaction rewards are indexed in the elastic search and visible on the blockchain explorer.

  5. Validator statistics engine finalized, providing nodes consensus participation information. This data is now cross checked between shards and metachain.

  6. First working version of the transaction generation binary has been tested. We can now stress our testnet with a high number of transactions between multiple randomly generated accounts, distributed on all shards.

  7. http://Cryptobubbles.io testnet and game upgrade after processing 10 mil smart-contract calls.

  8. Optimization of node synchronization mechanism in progress, integration tests with different scenarios are being developed to target the synchronization mechanism.

  9. Improved filtering of transactions is in progress and will optimize the node memory, CPU usage and network traffic.

  10. Automated testing processes are in place, monitoring & automated bug reporting have been configured for internal testnets.

  11. Integration tests added for BLS multi signing and p2p integration tests refactored.

  12. Several bugs affecting memory consumption and other bugs have been fixed improving the testnet stability.
