Certification of Cardano node database v2​

With the release of the new distribution 2513, we have started to roll out the certification of the Cardano node database v2 in the Mithril networks.

Initially, Mithril certified entire database snapshots, requiring clients to download and verify the full database to bootstrap a Cardano node. The Mithril network now provides incremental certification of the Cardano node database, allowing clients to download only the specific range of immutable files needed, accelerating the process of bootstrapping a Cardano node. The key features include:

• Certification of the Cardano node database v2 every time a new immutable file is produced
• New HTTP routes in the aggregator REST API to access this certified data
• Updates to the Mithril client library and CLI for retrieving and verifying Cardano node database v2 (will be made stable one distribution after the activation in release-mainet)
• Mithril Explorer now displays certified Cardano node database v2.

The roll-out plan of the feature is the following:

• Distribution 2513:
  • Activation of the certification of Cardano node database v2 in the pre-release-preview network
  • Activation of the certification of Cardano node database v2 in the release-preprod network
• Distribution 2517:
  • Activation of the certification of Cardano node database v2 in the release-mainnet network.

Certification of Cardano stake distribution​

With the release of the new distribution 2437, we have started to roll out the certification of the Cardano stake distribution in the Mithril networks.

The Mithril network now provides certified Cardano stake distribution data without requiring a full Cardano node, a useful feature for applications such as bridges and layer 2 solutions. The key features include:

• Certification of the Cardano stake distribution of the ending epoch at each epoch transition
• New HTTP routes in the aggregator REST API to access this certified data
• Updates to the Mithril client library and CLI for retrieving and verifying Cardano stake distribution
• WASM client support for these functionalities
• Mithril Explorer now displays certified Cardano stake distribution.

The roll-out plan of the feature is the following:

• Distribution 2437:
  • Activation of the certification of Cardano stake distribution in the pre-release-preview network
  • Activation of the certification of Cardano stake distribution in the release-preprod network
• Distribution 2442:
  • Activation of the certification of Cardano stake distribution in the release-mainnet network.

Certification of Cardano transactions​

With the release of the new distribution 2430, we have started to roll-out the certification of the Cardano transactions in the Mithril networks.

The roll-out plan of the feature is the following:

• Distribution 2430 (before the Chang hardfork):
  • Activation of the certification of Cardano transactions in the pre-release-preview network.
  • Activation of the certification of Cardano transactions in the release-preprod network.
• Distribution 2437 (after the Chang hardfork):
  • Activation of the certification of Cardano transactions in the release-mainnet network.
