Avalanche Pre-Consensus Upgrade

The recent price gains are due to different factors on the eCash network and one of them being Avalanche Pre-Consensus which was announced on January 30, 2023 and offers almost instant transaction finalization where transactions are irreversible once finalized.. This upgrade will reduce confirmation time of a transaction from 10 minutes to just a few seconds making it faster than Proof-of-Work reliant crypto like bitcoin due to validating each transaction before adding it to a block..

Avalanche Post-Consensus Upgrade

The Avalanche Post-Consensus upgrade provides 51% attack prevention on the eCash network by individual nodes forming consensus to finalize blocks on the network.. If random or late blocks appear on the network in an attack, miners agree to ignore these blocks thus protecting networks using SHA256 algorithm shared with Bitcoin (BTC.).

Conclusion

eCash has been recording progress over time with updates such as Avalanche Pre & Post Consensuses that offer features such as near instant transaction finalization with confidence that finalized transactions cannot be reversed and 51% attack prevention respectively,. These upgrades have helped make eCahs faster than other proof of work reliant cryptos such as Bitcoin (BTC).
