Permanent storage network Arweave releases 2.8 protocol upgrade, introduces composite packaging format

Odaily News Permanent storage network Arweave is releasing its 2.8 protocol upgrade, introducing a new packaging format (Composite Packing) that improves network efficiency, scalability, and energy efficiency. Technical highlights of Arweave 2.8 include: - Allowing miners to utilize slower storage devices while maintaining network performance, significantly reducing the hardware requirements for node operators; - Further strengthening the security of the network by implementing enhanced anti-ASIC measures; - Optimizing the blockchain synchronization process and reducing the time required to synchronize a full node.
