Sui, the pioneering Layer 1 blockchain that offers industry-leading performance and infinite horizontal scaling, today announced the successful deployment of Mysticeti, its latest consensus protocol, on Sui Testnet. This significant breakthrough reduces consensus time on Sui’s public Testnet by 80 percent at 390 milliseconds while maintaining the protocol’s industry-leading throughput. This impressive demonstration confirms that Sui is the fastest consensus layer in the industry.

Sui 是領先的 Layer 1 區塊鏈，提供業界領先的性能和無限水平擴展，今天宣佈在 Sui 測試網上成功部署其最新共識協議 Mysticeti。這項重大突破將 Sui 公共測試網路上的共識時間縮短了 80%（390 毫秒），同時保持了協議業界領先的吞吐量。這一令人印象深刻的演示證實了 Sui 是業界最快的共識層。

Developed from deep research into Byzantine fault tolerance (BFT) consensus mechanisms, Mysticeti represents a significant advancement from Narwhal-Bullshark, the consensus algorithms Sui launched into its Mainnet a year ago, achieving unprecedented transaction speeds and reducing CPU requirements for validators. This enhancement extends Sui’s impressive low latency performance to all transaction types across the network.

Mysticeti 是透過對拜占庭容錯(BFT) 共識機制的深入研究而開發出來的，它代表了Sui 一年前在其主網上推出的共識演算法Narwhal-Bullshark 的重大進步，實現了前所未有的交易速度並降低了驗證器的CPU 要求。這項增強功能將 Sui 令人印象深刻的低延遲效能擴展到網路上的所有交易類型。

Sui’s uniquely object-oriented architecture enables the network to process transactions differently based on the characteristics of the transaction and the objects involved. On Sui, transactions involving only “owned objects”, such as peer-to-peer transfers, do not require consensus. Instead, they follow a fast-path execution that can be completed in a shorter time. In contrast, transactions involving the same shared object, for example, transactions involving marketplaces, auctions or collaborative game assets, do require consensus. In the past, that meant more processing latencies. Mysticeti changes that, by processing shared object transactions using an optimized version of BFT consensus. The Mysticeti design involves minimal cross-validator communication and fully takes advantage of network bandwidth in order to maintain high throughput.

Sui獨特的物件導向架構使網路能夠根據交易和涉及的物件的特徵以不同的方式處理交易。在 Sui 上，僅涉及「擁有物件」的交易，例如點對點轉賬，不需要達成共識。相反，它們遵循可以在更短的時間內完成的快速路徑執行。相反，涉及相同共享物件的交易，例如涉及市場、拍賣或協作遊戲資產的交易，確實需要共識。在過去，這意味著更多的處理延遲。 Mysticeti 透過使用 BFT 共識的最佳化版本處理共享物件交易來改變這一點。 Mysticeti 設計涉及最少的交叉驗證器通信，並充分利用網路頻寬以保持高吞吐量。

“Mysticeti represents a major leap forward, not just for Sui but for blockchain technology as a whole,” said George Danezis, Co-founder and Chief Scientist of Mysten Labs which originated the Sui Network and pioneer of global research on BFT consensus. “It reduces consensus latency to what we understand to be its lower limits while retaining the benefits of high capacity and low computation cost. It also allows transaction processing faster than consensus within the same protocol, a feature unique to Sui. Mysticeti is yet another instance of Sui pushing the boundaries of what blockchain technology can achieve.”

Mysten Labs 聯合創始人兼首席科學家George Danezis 表示：「Mysticeti 不僅代表了Sui 的重大飛躍，也代表了整個區塊鏈技術的飛躍。Mysten Labs 是Sui Network 的創始人，也是全球BFT 共識研究的先驅。 」 「它將共識延遲降低到我們理解的下限，同時保留高容量和低運算成本的優勢。它還允許比同一協定內的共識處理更快的事務處理，這是 Sui 獨有的功能。 Mysticeti 是 Sui 突破區塊鏈技術界限的另一個例子。

Results on Testnet have been remarkable, demonstrating the capability to commit transactions with an 80% reduction in latency compared to Narwhal. The enhancement implemented by Mysticeti significantly decreases complexity and optimizes resource use, allowing the Sui network to handle tens of thousands of transactions per second with latencies well below one second.

測試網路上的結果非常顯著，證明了與 Narwhal 相比，提交交易的延遲減少了 80%。 Mysticeti 實施的增強功能顯著降低了複雜性並優化了資源使用，使 Sui 網路能夠每秒處理數萬筆交易，且延遲遠低於一秒。

These advancements are critical as Sui continues to cement its position at the pinnacle of blockchain speed and scale, and provide a seamless experience for developers and users at scale.

這些進步至關重要，因為 Sui 繼續鞏固其在區塊鏈速度和規模巔峰的地位，並為開發人員和用戶提供大規模的無縫體驗。

“Mysticeti’s launch is the result of a successful collaboration between research, engineering, and our validator community,” said Dmitri Perelman, Head of Engineering at Mysten Labs. “The lessons we learned from building and tuning previous-generation consensus in production provided the context and inspiration for the researchers to come up with the new protocol. After the first Mysticeti prototype demonstrated undeniable performance superiority, the engineering team was fully onboard and the next-gen consensus implementation is being rolled out to Mainnet with the support of validators in a matter of months.”

Mysten Labs 工程主管 Dmitri Perelman 表示：“Mysticeti 的推出是研究、工程和我們驗證器社群之間成功合作的結果。” 「我們從在生產中建立和調整上一代共識中學到的經驗教訓為研究人員提出新協議提供了背景和靈感。在第一個 Mysticeti 原型展示了不可否認的性能優勢後，工程團隊全力投入，在驗證者的支持下，下一代共識實施將在幾個月內推廣到主網。

Kevin Nelson, Co-Founder of Aftermath Finance said, “With Mysticeti, Mysten has proven that the DAG-based structure can surpass state-of-the-art performance in both consensus throughput and, importantly, latency. At Aftermath, we are excited to see Mysticeti roll out on testnet and even more excited for when it will touch the hands of our users with its release on Mainnet. Moreover, we are looking forward to taking advantage of Mysticeti’s new design to provide a better end-to-end experience on Aftermath.”

Aftermath Finance 聯合創辦人 Kevin Nelson 表示：「透過 Mysticeti，Mysten 已經證明基於 DAG 的結構可以在共識吞吐量和延遲方面超越最先進的效能。在 Aftermath，我們很高興看到 Mysticeti 在測試網上推出，更興奮的是當它在主網上發佈時觸及我們用戶的雙手。此外，我們期待利用 Mysticeti 的新設計為 Aftermath 提供更好的端到端體驗。

Greg Siourounis, Sui Foundation Managing Director added, “Low latency and fast transaction speeds have always been fundamental to Sui’s value as a top choice for builders, and with Mysticeti, the developer experience gets even better. This breakthrough once again showcases an ongoing and relentless focus on innovation, unlocking new possibilities for the types and quality of decentralized applications that can be built on Sui.”

Sui 基金會董事總經理 Greg Siourounis 補充道：「低延遲和快速交易速度一直是 Sui 作為建構者首選價值的基礎，而透過 Mysticeti，開發者體驗會變得更好。這一突破再次展示了對創新的持續不懈的關注，為可在 Sui 上構建的去中心化應用程序的類型和質量釋放了新的可能性。

The key innovations of Mysticeti are detailed in the newly published paper, “Mysticeti: Low-Latency DAG Consensus with Fast Commit Path,” which shows the scalability of this new technology and is available for review.
