Lisk announces arrival of ‘new era’ after successful completion of migration to Lisk Mainnet v3


The Lisk Mainnet v2 completed the migration to Lisk Mainnet v3 on August 21, which is the biggest protocol change in Lisk blockchain history, Lisk wrote on their website. Features of the 'new era' include an extremely secure new account address system, up to 98.64% cheaper transactions after moving to a dynamic fee system, and ensured full immutability of transactions.

Migration eliminates all weaknesses of the Lisk Mainnet v2
The migration eliminates all weaknesses of the Lisk Mainnet v2 related to accounts, the consensus algorithm, and fees. The blockchain is now almost fully prepared for the upcoming interoperability release.

With v3, the new account address system is extremely secure with built-in error detection for typos. This does away with the need for account initialization. The previous address and ID system was retired and all current accounts were migrated. As a result, addresses have become longer, virtually eliminating the risk of address collisions and making sure such addresses resist preimage attacks.

Account private and public keys and the 12 word mnemonic passphrase have not changed. It's guaranteed that typos of up to 4 characters in the address will be detected.

Almost 100% cheaper transactions
With the newly introduced dynamic fee system under Lisk v3, transactions will be as much as 98.64% cheaper. This is because the minimum transaction fee has dropped from 0.1 LSK to 0.00136 LSK in an effort to make fees more competitive. By setting a higher fee and the same nonce as the transaction a user wants to overwrite, they can do so as long as the transaction has not been included in the block yet.

Transactions are non-reversible
Another important change that goes with Lisk v3 is total immutability. In other words, transactions are 100% non-reversible. This is the way of the future with interoperability and sidechains coming into the Lisk ecosystem as it prepares for v4. When Lisk Core v4 is released, blockchain applications will be able to support transactions across multiple blockchains. Lisk's newly integrated BFT consensus algorithm ensures they can't be reversed.

What is iDice?

iDice is a dice betting Dapp fueled by the use of the Ethereum organize. eg. iDice lets in players do several things and having such an innovative new token on the ETHEREUM Platform, we had to write an article about this new project. Guess on the space by the use of keeping up iDice tokens and best of all 100% of all benefit iDice acquires is dispersed among token holders, related to the amount of tokens they dangle. iDice amusement code is decentralized and changeless. Such gigantic building fees highlight a rising requirement for experienced, fair and cast Dapps. iDice iDice is an control which gives a provably affordable and simple, virtual Ethereum dice betting Dapp. The house edge will be set intensely and token holders have an atypical esteem that is dependably equiva- loaned to the house edge. iDice has a fully simple provide code accessible at etherscan.io. The payout of recreations is many times speedy. Provably Fair iDice uses open provide blockchain...

Spanish Banks Form New Blockchain Consortium

A group of Spanish banks has formed the country's first blockchain consortium. Wholesale bank Cecabank announced the effort today, partnering with professional services firm Grant Thornton. Who's involved: In its announcement, Cecabank doesn't say which other institutions are taking part, stating that it "comprises 33% of the Spanish banking sector". However, according to Spanish newspaper El Pais, the group's membership includes Abanca, Bankia, CaixaBank, Kutxabank, Ibercaja, Liberbank and Unicaja. It represents the first major foray into blockchain for these companies, as other Spanish banks, including Banco Santander and BBVA, have been working with the tech for some time. What they're saying: Thus far, only Cecabank has commented publicly on the consortium effort, describing it as a way for its employees to get a top-down understanding of the tech – as well as possible insight into how the bank might actually go about using it. "Employees of all o...

Ethereum Smart Contract Issues Frustrate Developers with Fatal Bugs

Only weeks after the execution of a hard fork to mitigate various DoS (denial-of-service) attacks, the Ethereum network and its developers are struggling to deal with yet another major flaw. This time, major issues in regards to smart contracts have emerged, which have rendered the efforts of decentralized applications in the Ethereum network purposeless. On November 1, the Ethereum development team and the founder of Solidity warned users and developers against a bug that allowed variables to be overwritten in storage. Variables in a smart contract are agreements made between two or more parties. Thus, if an attacker can gain access to the storage and alters the variables, crucial agreements in decentralized applications can be affected and funds may be extracted, which may pressure developers to discard previous smart contract-based projects to recompile contracts. Ethereum developers including Ansel Lindner stated that the development of an Ethereum application is failing to opera...
