Following the EF announcement about pivoting to known-safe hash functions like SHA or BLAKE, leanVM was rewritten to use flock. The new implementation, merged into the leanVM repo today, brings both security and performance to Lean Ethereum.
Our discv5 PR just landed in ethlambda. Lean nodes can now find peers on their own instead of being handed a static bootnode list.
Off by default, you can enable it with --discovery.enable.
With ethrex in production for almost a year, its discv5 implementation is battle-tested. Using it means we inherit its security and performance. It also includes automatic external IP discovery via PONG-based voting, and a lookup pacing scheme that eases as the peer table fills.
We ran a 1024-validator devnet to push the limit on devnet size and aggregation throughput. We are quite happy with the result.
We share our findings on this blogpost.
New blog post out: what we learned running a 1024-validator devnet
In this post, we go through what running our largest Lean Ethereum devnet so far taught us about where the bottlenecks are, and how we can move forward.
While a big contribution to the future of Ethereum, ethlambda is only a piece of what Lambda contributes to the ecosystem.
In this post, we write about what we worked on and what we're building, including ethlambda, @ethrex_client, and Lambda VM.
New blog post about our contribution to the core of Ethereum is out!
Go check out the development status of @ethrex_client, @ethlambda_lean, and Lambda VM.
