The Mandala Upgrade is a significant advancement in the blockchain network, enhancing scalability, cost-efficiency, and overall performance. This upgrade primarily focuses on improving the Bitcoin SV (BSV) network, making it more robust and suitable for enterprise solutions.
This core node network is crucial for delivering efficiency, security, and ultra high throughput.
These services expand network scalability and performance, catering to various applications like digital currencies and data services.
Built on a foundation of SPV, enabling p2p edge validation, and integration with the blockchain.
A highly connected, layered network designed to be fast, cost-effective, and resilient against failures and attacks.
The network architecture supports vast transaction volumes at high speed, essential for enterprise-level applications.
The existing blockchain network faces several challenges:
• Limited Layers: Only two layers (mining nodes and applications) restrict specialization and scaling.
• Peer-to-Peer Connectivity: Limited due to lack of adoption of SPV, and reliance on non-mining nodes.
• Node Software Limitations: Performance varies based on hardware and settings.
• Resource Drain: Non-mining nodes consume resources without contributing to the network.\
The Mandala Upgrade addresses these limitations by introducing a three-layer network architecture:
1. Teranode Layer: Ensures high-speed processing, massive scale.
2. Overlay Service Layer: Facilitates specialization and efficient handling of business logic.
3. Application Layer: Enhances privacy and functionality with p2p communication and validation.
