Elastos Bi-Weekly Update – 30 April, 2023

Elastos has recently made several updates and improvements in the past two weeks. The Mainchain has resolved synchronization issues and has successfully transitioned from Delegated Proof of Stake (DPoS) to the Bonded Proof of Stake (BPoS) Consensus. The Elastos Smart Contract (ESC) Chain has established a test network for performance stress testing on its upcoming upgrade.

Furthermore, the Essentials wallet has undergone testing and released Version 3.0.6. Essentials has also enhanced the page loading speed of its BPoS voting application and improved the user interface’s interaction handling and fixed various bugs based on feedback and reports from the community. The Core team improved the Carrier code to make it easier to use on different platforms like Windows.
