What is known about the update?


According to the status page, the update started yesterday around ten o'clock in the evening. The completion took place almost at 5 am today. By the time the article is written, the entire main infrastructure of the crypto network is functioning normally.


Thanks to the Bedrock update, the developers were able to achieve several important improvements. These include:


  1. Reduction of commission fees by approximately 10%. This was due to a reduction in the data charges of the first-level network, reaching a theoretical minimum value.
  2. Increase the speed of deposit confirmation. Now it will take about three minutes. Previously, a crypto network participant needed about 10 minutes to do this.
  3. Improving node performance. This became possible due to the implementation of the function of conducting operations in the summary block.


The update has quite a lot of goals. However, one of the key is to achieve maximum equivalence in the Ethereum crypto network. This includes the use of a number of elements: the code of the basic crypto network, infrastructure. This also includes modular architecture. Thanks to this, proven and secure solutions are inherited. At the same time, interaction improves.
