With the activation of the new mechanism, block creation time in the network dropped to 30 seconds (from 60 seconds).<\/p>\n<p>According to a ForkLog-available press release, Emmy* will prepare the Tezos platform for the transition to the Nomadic Labs-developed consensus algorithm <a href=\\\"https:\/\/blog.nomadic-labs.com\/a-look-ahead-to-tenderbake.html\\\">Tenderbake<\/a>, intended to accelerate the platform&#8217;s operation.<\/p>\n<p>Tenderbake is expected to enter Tezos&#8217; eighth upgrade and be based on the Tendermint concept <a href=\"https:\/\/u1f987.com\/en\/news\/what-is-cosmos-atom\">Tendermint from Cosmos<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>The project team stressed that Granada&#8217;s activation has significantly reduced gas consumption by smart contracts. This will enable developers to deploy more complex decentralized applications on the platform.<\/p>\n<p>As part of the upgrade, an experimental <span data-descr=\\\"decentralized finance\\\" class=\\\"old_tooltip\\\">DeFi<\/span>-pool, funded by the Tezos protocol itself, was launched. For each new block produced, the platform releases an additional 2.5 tez into the tez\/tzBTC liquidity pool.<\/p>\n<p>In six months, the project will stop funding the pool. The community will have the opportunity to vote on continuing the experiment or creating new pools with other trading pairs.<\/p>\n<p>In July, the Gitcoin platform, which funds open-source blockchain projects for building the Web 3.0 Internet infrastructure, <a href=\"https:\/\/u1f987.com\/en\/news\/gitcoin-integrates-tezos-blockchain-and-launches-hackathon\">integrated the Tezos network<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Tezos blockchain platform has activated the seventh protocol upgrade, Granada.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":47358,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"select":"1","news_style_id":"1","cryptorium_level":"","_short_excerpt_text":"","creation_source":"","_metatest_mainpost_news_update":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[3],"tags":[1722],"class_list":["post-47357","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-news-and-analysis","tag-tezos-xtz"],"aioseo_notices":[],"amp_enabled":true,"views":"20","promo_type":"1","layout_type":"1","short_excerpt":"","is_update":"","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/u1f987.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/47357","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/u1f987.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/u1f987.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/u1f987.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/u1f987.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=47357"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/u1f987.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/47357\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":47359,"href":"https:\/\/u1f987.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/47357\/revisions\/47359"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/u1f987.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/47358"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/u1f987.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=47357"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/u1f987.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=47357"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/u1f987.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=47357"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
