Feeling Cute. Might Delete It Later? The Challenge of Deletion and Swarm’s DREAM Solution
Swarm introduces an innovative solution called DREAM (Deletion by Revoking Encryption Access for Mutable resources), which tackles deletion not by physically erasing data, but by ensuring data becomes completely inaccessible once deleted.
State of the Network: March 2025
March data shows a notable change in network metrics, with total-network rewards increasing significantly compared to February, marking the first such increase in the last several months. This shift occurs alongside a continued decrease in active staking nodes. The combination of increased total rewards and fewer active nodes has resulted in significantly higher per-node rewards this month compared to recent months.
Monthly Development Update – March 2025
In March 2025, the Bee Track focused on improving upload and download efficiency with Release 2.5, including optimisations to the pusher, pushsync protocol, and peer routing.
State of the Network: February 2025
With February now complete, network trends indicate continued stabilization. While total rewards declined slightly, the rate of decrease remained moderate, suggesting incentive dynamics are nearing equilibrium. Corresponding to the drop in active nodes, the average earnings per node saw a slight increase.
