Mithril is a stake-based signature scheme and a protocol that improves the speed and efficiency of nodes' syncing times. Mithril boosts node syncing time, offers security, and empowers decentralized decision-making. With Mithril, Cardano's network becomes more efficient, streamlined, and capable of supporting a wider range of applications and use cases.
Mithril's proof of concept was released in August 2022. In December, the team officially presented Mithril, revealing more about its benefits, applications, and roadmap…
Atala PRISM: pioneering digital identity with decentralized solutions
Decentralized identity is a cornerstone of the network state and the systems IOG is building. Here’s more on the latest progress

Identity is fundamental to every aspect of our lives. It serves as a central concept in daily interactions, whether in personal or professional spheres, with individuals, organizations, and institutions such as insurance companies, banks, service providers, and more. Physical documents like passports, driver’s licenses, or ID cards (ie, credentials) offer a simple means to…
Dynamic P2P is available on mainnet
Dynamic peer-to-peer (P2P) networking comes with the release of node v.1.35.6. Network participants can now test automatic node communication without a need for static configurations

Dynamic P2P networking is an important evolution for Cardano and a further boost to the network's performance, resilience, and decentralization. By automating the peer selection process, Dynamic P2P enables enhanced communication between distributed nodes and simplifies the process of running a relay or a block-producing node. This eliminates the need for static configurations…
