Fantom Technical Update 18
By Michael Kong Fantom has been working hard on the first post-mainnet Opera network upgrade, which will be an upgrade to both go-lachesis and the Special-fee contract (“SFC”). We have been carefully testing many aspects of changes to ensure a smooth and consistent upgrade for this release, and future releases. In doing so, we have built and continue to build a number of different automatic test suites, to ensure that upgrades in the future happen faster with more automation. We have also continued to make Go-lachesis ABCI-compatible, and have added further upgrades to both the backend, Go-lachesis, and the SFC.Go-lachesisChanged “Downtime” to be the measurement for the total amount: of time in milliseconds: https://github.com/Fantom-foundation/go-lachesis/pull/441Added code to cmd/lachesis/config.migrations() allowing the node to accept configs from previous releases (v0.5.0-rc.1 and v0.6.0-rc.1): https://github.com/Fantom-foundation/go-lachesis/pull/438Help with SFC upgrading.

Fantom General Update and Recap
By Connor Hughes — Fantom Finance. — We recently launched the fantom.finance website to give an insight into what features users can expect from our upcoming DeFi platform. With fLend and fTrade at the core, the platform will allow users to collateralize their staked FTM (and rewards) to mint a stablecoin, fUSD. This stablecoin is the heartbeat of Fantom Finance — you can choose to either lend/borrow fUSD with fLend or use it to generate synthetic assets and speculate on their price over time. Check out the fantom.finance site, and stay tuned for further updates on the platform. — DCRM Alliance. — Fantom was announced as a member of the DCRM Alliance, a group of organisations working towards decentralized custodianship and interoperability of distributed ledger platforms. Our friends at Fusion are spearheading the project and revealed the progress made to date. Milestones achieved so far include the creation of a fully functional test network and generating transactions on different networks in a distributed manner. Future work will centre around contingency situations — unresponsive nodes and malicious actors among them. — Moving to Discord. — We decided to move our official community to Discord to create a more organized and efficient space for the community to engage with and learn about Fantom. Discord’s native functionality means those with questions related to specif...

Fantom Technical Update 17
By Michael Kong Since the beginning of the year, we have made continuous optimisations to Go-lachesis, added additional features to the Xar Network, and made improvements to the explorer and wallet applications. Fantom will be releasing fortnightly updates from today onwards.Go-Lachesis — 1. Aggressive P2P Propagation of Events. — One of the simplest ways to reduce time-to-finality (ttf) was to make P2P events propagation more aggressive so that events would travel between nodes faster. Before the network had a balance between used network throughput and latency, but now gives up more throughput for lower latency. This did not require a hard fork, and is fully compatible with existing nodes. Optimize p2p by devintegral3 · Pull Request #411 · Fantom-foundation/go-lachesis 2. Changed bootnodes from being static nodes to using discovery By default, nodes are configured to accept no more than 50 peers. If static nodes have the same limit, then the network won’t scale past 50 nodes without discovery. We have specified bootnodes as discovery nodes, not static nodes (so discovery would work). We will also implement a node that does nothing except discovery itself and would serve only as a bootnode. We may re-use this type of node from geth (cmd/bootnode). 3. Added in Support for future SFC logs, including increaseDelegation function Missing RPC call (net_version) required to deploy contracts with Truffle · Issu...

Technical Paper: Probabilistic Byzantine Fault Tolerance
It’s been a while since we’ve shared academic milestones and/or new technical papers, but today we’re excited to share our newest paper: Probabilistic Byzantine Fault Tolerance. Byzantine fault tolerance (BFT) has attracted a large body of research in distributed trustless systems that ensure the system’s integrity despite of Byzantine processes. Most previous work in BFT systems are mainly aimed to ensure all (honest) processes agree on common knowledge or common state of the network. However, there is a lack of studies about common knowledge of Byzantine faults, such as, whether all honest processes agree on the existence of a Byzantine process. To improve our understanding in this direction, Fantom has presented a fresh outlook on BFT systems in which processes may misbehave unpredictably. We propose a novel model in which individual Byzantine processes have some probability of cheating. We give several interesting analyses and intuitions of the model in both synchronous and asynchronous BFT systems.

Fantom Wallet Update.
By Michael Chen Hey Fantomians, we’re incredibly excited to share that we’re making updates to the Fantom wallet to make it easier to use for users across the globe. In the coming weeks and months, Fantom will be working to make the wallet easier to use and to prepare it for additional functionality which includes compatibility for a brand new DeFi stack, tailored for the Opera Mainnet, and localization into multiple languages such as Korean and Chinese. What’s the timeline on these updates? The DeFi stack is currently being built and tested internally, and more details about it will be released as we come closer to the launch of it. As for the localizations in Korean and Chinese, the wait is over. We’ve deployed the Korean and Chinese wallet, website, and explorer localizations as we speak. That means that our community members in Chinese and Korean speaking regions will now have increased clarity and oversight when utilizing the native Opera mainnet wallet. Of course, it doesn’t stop there, as Fantom will be looking to add support for other languages as well in the near future. We’re currently working on the Vietnamese versions, but we’re keen to hear from the community as to which language YOU would like to see support for. Let us know on Reddit or Twitter, and we look forward to hearing your feedback about the improved wallet!Official Links for Fantom: Official Email Address: contact@fantom.foundation Of...

Ethereum Classic Labs, Fantom & Xar Network to collaborate to bring DeFi to ETC.
(Blog post mirrored after press kit) February 10th, 2020 — Ethereum Classic Labs(ETClabs) has announced a collaboration with The Fantom Foundation, the non-profit behind Fantom, the open-source, modular platform for DLT products, to bring crypto-agnostic DeFi features to the Fantom ecosystem. In particular, Fantom will use Xar Network, a DeFi-oriented public blockchain built using Fantom’s Lachesis and TxFlow consensus, as a more extensible analog to the popular Ethereum lending platform MakerDAO. “We’re collaborating with the ETClabs to bring DeFi, including all aspects of our tech stack (e.g., stablecoins, lending, staking, asset issuance, collateralization, etc.) to the Xar ecosystem,” detailed Michael Chen, CMO of The Fantom Foundation. As part of the collaboration, users can leverage the Ethereum Classic token (ETC) as collateral to mint a stablecoin on the Fantom platform akin to MakerDAO’s Dai on Ethereum. However, Xar Network’s specific design enables agnostic issuance of collateralized stablecoins outside of ETC, including any supported Collateralized Stable Currency Tokens (CSCTs) on the network. ETC will operate as the collateral for customized CSCT issuance by corporations, central banks, and other financial institutions on Xar Network. Issuing entities can maintain complete control over the underlying collateral (ETC), and even stake the corresponding CSCT to generate rewards in a stablecoin ba...

DeFi and the internet of assets.
By Simone Pomposi The end of 2019 saw an increasing rise of interest around DeFi, or decentralized finance. DeFi is “the notion that crypto entrepreneurs can recreate traditional financial instruments in a decentralized architecture” — Jeff Kauflin. While Bitcoin was the first attempt at a rudimentary decentralized financial system — and has been specifically known as a store of value in the most recent times — , it was Ethereum that really created a more favourable environment for DeFi. The possibility to deploy dApps and smart contracts is what pushed developers to think outside of the box and unleash their creativity. The first tangible result was MakerDAO, a decentralized platform whose users can create a stablecoin called DAI by using ETH and other ERC20 tokens as collateral. The process is quite simple: you lock in any amount of ETH or supported ERC20 token, and you can borrow DAI, which is pegged 1:1 to the US Dollar, as long as you maintain at least a 150% collateral position. For example, assuming that the price of 1 ETH = $100, if you lock in 1.5 ETH (worth $150), you can borrow up to 100 DAI. As in all collateralized positions, it’s always recommended to overcollateralize to avoid risks of liquidation. You can use the newly borrowed DAI for anything you want, for example, sell it to buy other tokens or services, as long as you return it, paying interests, to free up your locked ETH. All so...

A letter to the community by our new team member, Simone Pomposi.
We recently hired one of our community members, Simone Pomposi, to be a part of our marketing and communications team. We previously elaborated on the foundation’s thought process behind the new hires and what they bring to the table, now we let them speak. — Hi Fantom.. — I have been following Fantom since its birth. Mostly thanks to the focused and transparent team, a special group of people gathered around it. Fantom has one of the most united and passionate communities in the crypto world. Together we have witnessed the evolution of an idea, like a statue slowly taking form out of a piece of clay. Amorphous at first and then more and more refined, that idea led to the release of XAR first and Opera a few days ago, both based on Fantom’s revolutionary technology. Blockchain is evolving; the space is maturing. Having been in the space for a while, I’ve seen them all: legitimate creations shine, such as Bitcoin and Ethereum; a few ideas that were good but were too early; many others that were not good and used the “blockchain” buzzword to ride the wave all the way down to the unavoidable scams. Now the times are different. People are wiser, and they expect results and tangible goals because they — we — believe that blockchain is not a fad. Blockchain is here to stay. For the first time in history, we can own unique digital assets. Assets that cannot be copied or duplicated but only transf...

Meet Our New Team Members.
It’s been a bit more than a month since we last shared the acquisition of new team members, but we’re elated to introduce two new individuals who will be contributing to the Fantom ecosystem in their own respective ways. — Marketing. — First of all, meet Simone Pomposi, originally one of our community members and a true blockchain evangelist in every sense. Simone is joining us to help us with marketing and communications, brand strategy, and user experience. He’s been a very active part of the community, and hosted our first meetup in New York City in March 2019, along with IOTA and Holochain. Originally from Italy, he’s been fascinated with technology since a young age. In his early 20s, he worked at Ferrari as an IT consultant before moving on to advertising. In 2011 he relocated to New York City, where he had the opportunity to collaborate with the world’s leading creative agencies and brands — including Adidas, Nike, and Samsung. He also had to turn down offers from Google and Apple to attend his sister’s wedding, but that’s a story for another time! Simone discovered Bitcoin in 2013, but it wasn’t until 2017 that he fell into the rabbit hole and started learning as much as he could about blockchain and cryptocurrencies. After attending a few events, he soon realized that there was a huge unmet need in the space: making things simple and understandable by anyone. His goal is to help the...
