Rhône Network Upgrade 🧵#4

@alephium will help devs build easier with more powerful tools!

Introducing mapping to Ralph.

🤔 What is mapping?
🫠 Why is this important?

👇 As @wachmc noted, the Rhône Network Upgrade will bring meaningful enhancements to @alephium, among them DevX ones.

Mapping is one of them.

Rhône Network Upgrade 🧵#3

✂️ 90% Reduction of the Storage Rent Fee

Wait, what?

⬇️ 🤔 What is the storage rent fee?

When deploying a smart contract, currently, devs are required to lock 1 $ALPH.

The goal is to prevent state bloating.

Chains like @ethereum get bloated in part because there is no incentive to destroy unused or outdated smart contracts.

Rhône Network Upgrade 🧵#2

@alephium will enable Programmable Gasless Transactions!

Why?
What does this mean?
Why is it important?

⬇️ Image Imagine you're a new user wanting to interact with a dApp on Alephium, for example, a Decentralized Exchange.

Even if you are swapping other tokens, you need $ALPH to interact with the blockchain and get your desired item.

It's inconvenient if you don't have $ALPH on hand.

Sharding is a term we often hear in the blockchain space, but what does it really mean?

Especially in the context of UTXO and PoW based systems, @alephium sharding takes a very unique approach.

Let's dive in! 🧵 Image Technically, sharding simply means partitioning.

And there are numerous ways to implement it.

We've talked about it quite a lot in the past already!

Announcing the Rhône Network Upgrade.

✂️ Blocktime reduction
⛽ Gasless transactions
🤏 Reduced minimal storage fee

+ a lot of smaller changes Image Why a Network Upgrade?

The stack is constantly upgraded to increase performance, security, user experience & devX.

New features and improvements can usually be done in a backwards-compatible way.

Sometimes they can't (eg. Blocktime redux), hence the need for a Network Upgrade!

Network Upgrade 🧵#1

@alephium will reduce the Block Time from 64s to 16s.

Why?
What does it mean?
Why is it important?

⬇️ Image Block Time is the average time it takes to mine a new block.

In #bitcoin it's 10 minutes, in @ethereum, it's 12 seconds, etc...

Currently, on @alephium, it's 64 seconds.

Bridge Thread #1

Bridge is getting closer... Did you know tokens never leave their "home" chain when you cross the bridge?

Here's why👇 Image Let's assume Alice wants to trade 100 $ALPH on a DEX on Ethereum.

She visits the bridge site, connects her @Alephium wallet, and sends 100 $ALPH to Ethereum.

Here's what happens under the hood:
