Soneium Minato, a prominent player in the blockchain ecosystem, is about to undergo a major upgrade that will have significant implications. According to Soneium Network, the platform will transition from its current Ecotone version to the latest Optimism OP Stack version called Granite, accompanied by the Fjord updates. This upgrade is expected to bring a host of improvements in network efficiency, transaction security, and gas optimization.
Exciting news has been announced for Soneium developers and users! The dual upgrade to Granite, the newest version of the Optimism OP Stack, is scheduled to launch in just four days, on Monday, October 28th. This upgrade from the Ecotone version will introduce several enhancements to our platform.
Soneium recently revealed in a social media post that this dual upgrade, which includes the Fjord and Granite updates, will significantly reduce gas costs. The aim is to alleviate the financial burden on both users and developers, making Soneium Minato transfers more affordable and increasing network accessibility. Alongside gas reductions, users can also expect improved network resilience and overall efficiency, crucial factors in sustaining the high transfer volumes on Soneium.
However, it is important to note that during the rollout of this upgrade, there may be brief transfer delays and minimal downtime. The development team advises users to be prepared for possible transfer disruptions on October 28th, as the network implements the exclusive framework.
For node operators, this upgrade will require certain changes to node configurations. Soneium has provided detailed instructions on how to organize the nodes to accommodate both updates. Furthermore, developers are encouraged to take note of the changes in gas price assessment methodologies, which reflect the evolving economic design of Soneium. These adjustments promise a more efficient allocation of resources. To ensure a smooth upgrade, users can access the necessary resources and detailed instructions on Soneium’s Notion page.
