ift-ts:dst:blockchain:2026q1-blockchain-evaluation

Description

Note: This needs more input from project

Use real world testing, theoretical analysis and simulation to determine and improve Blockchain’s scaling properties. Find the limits of Blockchain’s capabilities and measure them in different scenarios.

We will measure the real world speeds and latency of Blockchain’ mixnet, and what use cases it is therefore able to support.

The scope of this commitment depends on the Blockchain team work and improvements, and it is subjected to change.
