New Edge Protocol In The Testnet
With the next major client update the Diode network will be using a new Edge Network Protocol. Edge2 is replacing the current Edge1 protocol. Nodes will be supporting both protocols for some time until all clients are being upgraded. The new protocol brings major enhancements. First and foremost the protocol change enables full async messaging and will remove those pesky timeout issues. In addition the change from JSON to RLP for protocol encoding is halving...

4 Steps to Hosting a Decentralized Static Website using ENS and IPFS
In this article, we will outline the steps required to deploy a static website under your ens name. One example is my personal website hosting on IPFS using “yahsin.eth” my ENS custom domain. What it does is that anyone can visit https://yahsin.eth.link/, the browser would return an introduction of myself. It will work faster if the viewer has MetaMask readily installed. View a list of ENS+IPFS websites compiled by Almonit here: https://almonit.eth.link/ So, how can...

November 2019 Update
Diode, at its core, is a finality gadget with an Ethereum block header change. It’s enabled by a super-light protocol and client for constrained devices, allowing them to read contract state data and validate the corresponding merkle proofs. The finality gadget and algorithm are based on BlockQuick. View the Diode project on Github. In this blog post, we take a look back at the past few months and a look ahead to the plans for...
