The Sui mainnet will integrate Mysticeti, a DAG-based consensus algorithm.
Sui tweeted that its mainnet will integrate Mysticeti, a DAG-based consensus algorithm, and that the upgrade process will be carried out in several steps in the coming weeks. Officials said that Mysticeti took 390 milliseconds to reach consensus on the test network and the final settlement time was 640 milliseconds, which is 80% less than Narwhal-Bullshark. In addition to decoupling latency from throughput, the algorithm also maintains extremely high throughput (even in the event of network and node failures). In addition, Mysticeti validators can sign and share blocks without authentication, and its submission rules naturally appoint multiple leaders each round, thus enabling more transactions to go on the chain earlier.
