SiaCoin (SC) Protocol Optimization
Before reading Optimizing Payment Channels to Achieve CDN Latencies users should read about SkyRocket. Of note, SkyRocket is about protocol optimization.
David Vorick tweeted: “Chris Schinnerl explains a technology (Ephemeral Accounts) we rolled out to improve download latency. This is a major element of recent speed upgrades to Skynet, and one of the reasons we assert that we are years ahead of other projects.”
Ephemeral Accounts (EAs) are about keeping a balance on an account. These accounts are on individual hosts on the network and can be used to pay for them. So for instance, an EA on a host with 1 Siacoin (SC) can get paid for downloading data worth up to 1 SC.
