One has announced the release of version 2.0 of the EOSIO open source protocol, according to an official press release shared with Cointelegraph on Oct. 8.
EOSIO is a blockchain-based smart contract protocol used to develop and host decentralized applications.
Protocol updates: smart contract efficiency and security.
One's announcement, the core of EOSIO 2.0 includes various improvements to EOS VM - a high-performance WebAssembly engine specialized for blockchain applications that enables more efficient use of system resources when processing smart contracts.
One claims that the updated EOS VM offers up to a 16x performance gain over EOSIO 1.0, thereby greatly improving smart contract efficiency.
Other major developments include the adoption of WebAuthn authentication standards, allowing to use a hardware device for authenticating and signing transactions in browsers without extensions or extra installed software for EOSIO applications.
One has also developed what it dubs "Weighted threshold multi-signature block production" - a way for them to "Securely sign blocks by utilizing a permission layer that allows for multiple block signing keys in a flexible scheme without sharing any sensitive data."
The release also includes a new web-based development tool dubbed EOSIO Quickstart Web IDE - currently at an alpha support stage - which aims to decrease the complexity and system requirements for building EOS.io applications.
As Cointelegraph reported on Sept. 14, a hacker had allegedly stolen over $110,000 in cryptocurrency through an exploit of EOS gambling game EOSPlay.
Industry developers have subsequently contextualized the hacker's exploits amid a purportedly wider problem: an inexpensive technique that allegedly allows hackers to "Congest" the network - or put it into a low-efficiency mode - with just a few dollars worth of EOS. Block.
