ChainCatcher news, Taiko announced on social media that the mainnet protocol has successfully upgraded to v1.7.0. This update is expected to significantly reduce the Gas consumption of Rollup protocols on Ethereum.

ChainCatcher news, Taiko announced on platform X that it will upgrade the Taiko BCR mainnet protocol to version 1.7.0 on July 1. This version is compatible with the current Taiko-geth and client version ABI, but includes underlying protocol changes that affect block proposers and provers. The main updates include:The designated prover of the block must also be the proposer;Block provers need to verify whether the existing converted stateRoot is zero. If it is, the protocol will only compare blockHash to determine if another conversion is in dispute;The validity and dispute guarantees of active guarantees and SGX proofs are reduced by 50%;Gas optimization;The Hekla testnet protocol has been upgraded, which may cause some block proposal and proof transactions to fail. It is recommended that all Hekla block proposers and provers update their transaction parameters as soon as possible.

Chain Catcher News, Algorand announced that it has completed the mainnet protocol upgrade. This version features: the introduction of state proofs for trustless cross-chain communication, an increase in performance from 1,200 transactions per second to 6,000 transactions per second, and the launch of new tools that simplify development and introduce on-chain randomness for dApps.
