We have all heard of blocks in crypto, but what are they really? Imagine a ziplock bag filled with fortune cookie papers — except instead of general well-wishing, each one contains an address crediting some coins to another address. Once a miner guesses the answer to the next block, all of those transactions are sealed in the ziplock bag and permanently stapled to the ziplock bag that came before it, forming a chain of bags — I mean blocks.

In Bitcoin and many other cryptocurrencies, these blocks occur at regular intervals and are only allowed to happen one at a time — forming a straight line of blocks. When you send some coins, it’s like your transaction is waiting at the bus stop for the next bus to take your transaction away and lock it in. For Bitcoin, the bus comes every 10 minutes. For Ethereum, the bus comes every 15 seconds — much better.

For Flamma, the bus currently comes every second — but — we also allow up to 18 blocks (sequence groups) to occur simultaneously. Once the Flamma code is fully optimized for high performance, we may increase the block time to about 32 blocks per second. Suddenly, your transaction is no longer waiting for the bus — there are 32 supercars (sequence groups) arriving every second to collect passenger transactions and rocket them off.

Transactions and confirmations happen instantly; with Flamma, there’s nothing to wait for anymore when using cryptocurrency.

Advantages of Flamma Network

Similarly, the Flamma Network’s testnet currently processes one block per second, paving the way for fast transaction processing and confirmation. But we won’t stop there.
