The Lace Wallet Facelift

The latest version of Lace dubbed version 1.7 comes with some exciting features including an update to the multi-staking capabilities. It also comes with some other tools to reduce drift and better insights on staking pool retirement and saturation. 

Noteworthy, the team behind the Cardano Lace wallet is keen on constantly making reasonable upgrades to the product. In the last few months following its launch, the Lace Wallet has seen several upgrades that contributed to this current facelift. 

The highly functional and easy-to-use Web3.0 wallet was made to go through some fixes including the “semi-automatic collateral setup for CIP-30, refactored complex areas of code, increased end-to-end test automation coverage, and started looking closer into CIP-95 ahead of work related to Voltaire.”

Additionally, the Lace team pushed efforts to enhance user experience by updating the UI for network switching within the wallet. Similarly, the team also ran load tests on the backend using HD wallets. About a month later, the Lace wallet underwent another set of upgrades but this time, the focus was on bug fixing and polishing. 

Some other updates that have been implemented on the decentralized light wallet are the improvement of the serialization library in the cardano-js-sdk. Collateral settings were also worked on and issues related to the integration of the Lace platform with ledger devices and Decentralized Applications (DApps) were addressed.

More Upgrades on Cardano

Beyond Lace Wallet, one other update on the weekly development report is the improvement of the performance of FindTxsFor operation and the chain indexer by the Marlowe team. 

The report went on to state that the Marlowe team has “tested the vesting DApp prototype, published the token plan README, and tested the Marlowe Runner functionality, also adding relevant links to the explorer and Playground.” All these are aimed at making the protocol more functional.

Also, the team behind the flagship scaling solution, Hydra has released their October report in addition to delivering a presentation and a workshop at the Cardano Summit. Overall, the Cardano protocol recorded a total of 74.8 million transactions over the past week, making it one of the most robust blockchain networks around.
