Aiming to increase speed and efficiency in blockchain technologies and also the company behind the Sonic (S) altcoin, Sonic Research has introduced its new DAG (Directed Acyclic Graph)-based consensus protocol, SonicCS 2.0. According to the company's official blog, SonicCS 2.0 stands out with its overlapping selection mechanisms that allow for parallel ordering of operations. Tests have shown that the new protocol runs on average 2 times faster than the previous version and reduces memory usage by 68%. SonicCS 2.0 is built on an innovative DAG architecture that can simultaneously sequence transactions across blocks. The protocol organizes the transaction data received by each node from others as a directed acyclic graph (DAG), and through this structure, it determines the transactions to be included in the chain by creating a time order.

In this system, the leader event determination process, called “election,” is carried out in parallel, not separately for each block. This speeds up transaction confirmation processes and reduces the processing load on the hardware. In the new protocol, voting structures are modeled with 0-1 matrix representations, enabling more efficient election calculations. This contributes to high performance with lower resource consumption despite the processing intensity. SonicCS 2.0 was tested over 200 epochs (network cycles) on the Sonic mainnet, achieving 2x faster performance compared to the previous protocol, while also consuming 68% less memory. The Sonic team announced that the new consensus protocol will be enabled in the upcoming Sonic client release in the coming weeks. The developers also stated that a more detailed technical report on SonicCS 2.0 will be shared soon. The S price has fallen by 60% in the last year. *This is not investment advice.
