Almost three months have passed since the Trias test network launching on Aug. 1. During this period, what has the project come to in these three months? What new features have been added? What was the result of our test? Today, we are here to do a small stage summary.

For a long time, People have two questions about the blockchain. Is that an inefficient service? How can I know who is the air project? To answer these two questions, first of all, the blockchain efficiency bottleneck mainly concentrate on consensus algorithm, which has different implementation. Bitcoin is the PoW mechanism while EOS uses the dPoS mechanism to improve the efficiency through a small number of super nodes to reach consensus. As the super nodes decreasing, the corresponding speed will be greatly increased. As for the second problem, the air project is generally featured by slow progress and negative attitude.

Then, regarding these two issues, we can mainly look at the two pictures below. I believe that after reading it, everyone will have a deeper understanding of the Trias project.

Super Node Skyladder Periodical Time Table

The first picture is the node state picture of Trias test network. The top place in the picture called Super Node Skyladder Periodical Time Table, where each number represents periodicity remaining time and measures new super node with the highest level of trust. The twinkling green dots in the middle of the world map are super nodes of the Trias network, and their connections indicate that they are constantly initiating verification via TEE trusted computing. At the bottom of the picture, it is recorded some specific parameters on the test network, such as transactions, nodes, blockchain producers and more.

As we all know, there are huge differences between the Trias network and other public chains. If you want to be an Ethernet node, simply download the agent consensus. But Trias is not available, TEE foundation is required if to be Trias node in addition to the work environment, such as SGX, TrustZone, TXT, etc. On this basis, it must pass the TEE challenge. Only if you can access to Trias after each node verification and its information spreading out, enabling the state of each TEE consensus node to form a reputation relation network.

It’s worth mentioning that the verification process is not merely one time, but changes every time. And each node is constantly measuring the others credible level. After joining the Trias network, Trias will go through a certain period (it is not fixed, and mainly updated by the entire network computing power, such as 8 days mentioned above) to release the ladder, select the top ranked nodes in order as the super nodes. This is totally different from the EOS voting mechanism.

There is a common sense for the most public chain projects in blockchain industry, few guarantee every consensus node under operating environment. In other words, every node in the network may be subject to malicious attacks, and super nodes are no exception.

Normally, super nodes are evaluated based on the performance. Nevertheless, even becoming a super node, it can’t be changed arbitrary. Suppose you get a super consensus node A administrator rights, and then temporarily write a malicious script. Once running, it is immediately discovered by TEE consensus environment as mentioned above, the results are immediately kicked out and replaced in real time.

The picture above is mainly in response to the common request of friends in the community. Trias developed a blockchain browser, including the latest blocks, the latest transactions and related fees, recently active accounts, as well as even the latest wallet features.

In addition, Wei Ming of Trias CTO introduce that if you go into the details, you will see that there are two more things for each node, one is the TEE trusted computing power, the other is transaction on shard version as well as the home node displayed on the block browser. Unlike the other chains, it will be marked directly. For the time being, both BTC and ETH are acceptable from in view of token compatibility.

Well, the progress of the Trias project, I believe, will make you have a corresponding understanding. Welcome to join our community for further discussion.
