I would like to update everybody with some interesting details Colin shared recently in the Nexus Slack . By the way if you are not on it yet here is the link to join us:
http://nexusearth.com:3000 Tritium conception:
Tritium wallet development took months up to one year. A lot of time was in conception of the algorithms as well on paper, so its a mix of code, Lower Level Database (LLD), Lower Level Protocole (LLP), and paper. All those combined we could say over a year, especially designing the TAO update series.
Pretty much since nPoS I've been figuring out how to do everything else and writing the code to do it in pieces. Everything from 2.0 to Tritium could technically be considered time working on Tritium.
Tritium is 3.0, Amine is 4.0 and Obsidian is 5.0 - the TAO
Basically think of the TAO like this:
TritiumTritium is the network backend rebuild using LLP and LLD to enhance the protocol message capacity and messaging system like syncing, blocks, transactions and so forth.
Tritium will work so that anyone can choose their DB flavor. Also you guys will love "Key Suites" when I finish. Putting a basic version of this in Tritium and expanding it through the rest of the TAO.
Tritium has 3 stages: Tritium Beta, Tritium Trust and Tritium ++
AmineAmine is starting the process of checks and balances on the protocol level and adding Hssh, Prime, and Transaction Trust Keys. Where hash references will be in blocks making capacity 10x and bringing us up to zero confirmation safety and about 500 tx/s.
Obsidian
Obsidian is going to have token contracts, ambassador contracts, developer contracts, financial contracts, reversible contracts, and the new time locking system making the fuel for these contracts your time. It will also be changing the way the blockchain locks tx's using the miners as the lowest level validation where there will be three validation methods. Will also have full LLD then which will allow trust to partition the network easily bringing our tx capacity to whatever levels the node count can handle or whatever the network needs it to be so 5k tx/s would only require 10 gb / year on miners, 50 gb / year on merkle, and 150 gb / year for transaction nodes.
Also symbology:
-
Tritium is the 3rd isotope of Hydrogen
-
Amine is the building block of amino acids or proteins of "life"
-
Obsidian is a volcanic glass
TAO means "the principal of the universe" from ancient Chinese philosophy.
