Topl’s CTO, Dr. Hans Behrens, was invited to present the peer-reviewed Ouroboros Taktikos research at China’s prestigious conference in Haikou, China.
Topl, an interoperable blockchain protocol focused on a connected, inclusive, and sustainable global economy, today announces the peer-reviewed acceptance of its research on Ouroboros Taktikos. This consensus mechanism, built on the foundation of Cardano’s Ouroboros Praos, shows a throughput increase of 2.9 times and a latency reduction of 5.7 times compared to Praos.
Topl’s research indicates that by using a dynamic threshold, throughput and latency can be optimized, resulting in a more responsive network. Whereas Praos derives its name from the Greek term meaning “calm” or “gentle” and is known for its sparse consensus intervals, Taktikos, a Greek term meaning “arrangement,” reflects a more dynamic approach to block ordering.
