WHY MITHRIL?
The Cardano blockchain offers robust security, but starting up a new node, syncing it with the network, or exchanging data can be slow and resource intensive (24GB of RAM, 150GB (and growing) of storage, and over 24 hours for initial synchronization.)
Mithril was developed for Cardano as part of the Basho development phase to support optimization, scalability, and interoperability.
Choosing Mithril means opting for a scalable, secure, and versatile enhancement to the Cardano blockchainÂ
FEATURES
Secure data exchange
Fast and secure data synchronization with layer 2 solutions – including bridges, sidechains, and rollups – as well as applications like light wallets.
Faster node bootstrapping
Mithril's certified snapshots allow nodes to bootstrap quickly while maintaining the same level of security.
Trustless state verification
Blockchain data is validated and certified by a minimum share of the stake, enabling secure data exchange between decentralized applications.
Scalability
Stake-based threshold multi-signatures efficiently aggregate individual signatures, ensuring scalability even as the number of participants grows.
