Tron Industry Weekly Report: Mainstream Coins Continue to Build Bottom, Detailed Explanation of USDT-Specific Solutions Invested by Leading CEXs Stable

I. Outlook

1. Macroeconomic Summary and Future Predictions

Last week, the U.S. second-quarter GDP annualized growth rate was revised up to 3.3%, indicating a rebound in the economy driven by consumer spending and AI investments. Meanwhile, the expansion of tariffs and increased imports have raised inflation and cost pressures. Market expectations for a rate cut by the Federal Reserve in September quickly rose to 85%, with bets that the cumulative rate cut this year could reach 100 basis points.

U.S. stocks experienced volatility last week, initially supported by strong GDP data and a tech investment boom, with the Dow Jones and S&P 500 reaching historical highs. However, as signals of weak employment and declining confidence emerged, market sentiment turned cautious, leading to pullbacks on some trading days. Overall, U.S. stocks displayed a coexistence of concerns about short-term economic pressures and optimism about medium- to long-term growth momentum.

2. Market Changes and Warnings in the Crypto Industry

Last week, after Powell released dovish signals at the Jackson Hole meeting, the crypto market briefly surged. Bitcoin quickly broke above $117,000, and Ethereum also rose close to $4,800, with the market generally expecting a rate cut by the Federal Reserve in September, driving short-term capital inflows into crypto assets. Overall sentiment warmed, leading to a temporary increase in mainstream coin prices.

However, selling pressure soon emerged in the market, with large-scale Bitcoin sell-offs triggering a chain reaction, causing Bitcoin to fall back to around $110,000, with Ethereum, XRP, and others also declining. Analysts warned that although easing expectations provide support, the crypto market still faces the risk of a pullback in the short term, and investors should pay attention to Bitcoin's key support levels and liquidity changes.

2. Detailed Explanation of Key Projects of the Week

2.1. Detailed Analysis of Stable, a high-concurrency, low-latency, and highly scalable solution backed by leading exchanges Bitfinex, Kucoin, and BYBIT, which raised $28 million

Introduction

Stable provides a powerful, reliable, and cost-effective stablecoin blockchain solution optimized for USDT. By offering comprehensive features tailored for institutions, regular users, and developers, Stable enhances financial efficiency and drives outstanding operational performance.

Stable is designed to optimize USDT trading, providing institutions with efficient, secure, and cost-effective payment and settlement solutions. Features for enterprises include:

• Dedicated blockchain space for enterprises (coming soon): Enterprises using blockchain infrastructure need to ensure consistency in transaction latency. Stable provides exclusive allocation of blockchain space for enterprises, maintaining reliable transaction performance even during network congestion.

• Built for USDT trading: Stable enhances the issuance, settlement, and daily trading of USDT, capable of quickly and securely handling high-frequency large-scale USDT activities.

• High transaction throughput: Stable supports rapid transaction processing, enabling institutions to quickly settle large transactions and achieve large-scale transfers through USDT transfer aggregation.

• Security and reliability: Stable has robust security mechanisms that comprehensively protect transactions and assets. Its security architecture provides a trustworthy foundation for high-value settlements and critical financial operations.

• Privacy transfers (coming soon): Stable offers enterprise-level confidential privacy transfer capabilities, allowing institutions to protect privacy while executing transactions and fully comply with regulatory requirements. Through advanced encryption technology, sensitive transaction data will not be publicly displayed but can be audited by authorized parties. This allows enterprises to build trust and operational confidence in a compliant financial environment while meeting regulations such as AML/KYC and financial audits.

Architecture Analysis

From state databases, execution engines, consensus mechanisms, to specific optimizations for USDT, Stable's design consistently focuses on performance, scalability, and reliability. Each layer component in the tech stack is specifically optimized to support high-throughput workloads and seamless native USDT operations.

1. Consensus

StableBFT Consensus Mechanism

In the initial phase, the Stable blockchain adopts StableBFT, a custom proof-of-stake (PoS) consensus protocol based on CometBFT, designed to ensure the network has high throughput, low latency, and high robustness. Its main advantages include high deterministic finality and strong fault tolerance (even if 1/3 of validators fail or act maliciously, the network remains secure).

To further enhance consensus performance, Stable plans to optimize the two-layer mechanism related to consensus in the near future:

• Separation of transaction propagation and consensus propagation: By separating the transaction gossip layer from the consensus gossip layer, it prevents network congestion in the transaction layer from affecting consensus communication, enhancing system stability.

• Direct broadcasting of transactions to block proposers: In the current model, transactions are propagated between nodes through peer-to-peer gossip, resulting in a large amount of transaction-related traffic in the blockchain network. Stable plans to introduce a direct broadcasting mechanism to optimize this, allowing transactions to be sent directly to block proposers, thereby improving transaction propagation efficiency.

Future Plans: DAG-based Consensus Mechanism

To significantly enhance consensus efficiency, Stable plans to upgrade its protocol to a DAG (Directed Acyclic Graph)-based design, expected to bring a 5-fold performance improvement.

Traditional view-based BFT protocols (such as PBFT and HotStuff) can achieve low latency under stable network conditions but experience a sharp decline in performance during network interruptions, with long recovery times.

First-generation DAG engines like Narwhal and Tusk demonstrate that separating data propagation from consensus ordering can eliminate the single proposer bottleneck and enhance robustness during network instability. However, such architectures are not directly compatible with CometBFT systems, as they deviate from traditional block height-based development habits and mempool design.

Autobahn provides a PBFT-on-DAG architecture that can better integrate with Stable's consensus layer, achieving low latency under normal network conditions while quickly recovering during network failures. The Stable team maintains close collaboration with the authors of the Autobahn paper and will leverage the Autobahn architecture to enhance StableBFT's performance.

The StableBFT built on the Autobahn architecture will bring the following capabilities:

• Eliminate the single leader limitation, enabling parallel processing.

• Separate data propagation from final ordering, achieving faster finality.

• Enhance system processing resilience under abnormal network conditions through a robust BFT mechanism.

This advanced consensus design has been validated through internal prototypes, achieving high throughput performance of over 200,000 TPS (only the consensus layer) in controlled environments.

2. Execution Layer

Stable EVM

1. Introduction to Stable EVM

• Stable EVM is the Ethereum-compatible execution layer of the Stable blockchain, allowing users to interact seamlessly using common Ethereum tools (like MetaMask).

• It combines the familiar development experience of EVM with the modular high-performance infrastructure of Stable SDK.

• It introduces precompiled contracts, allowing EVM contracts to safely and atomically call underlying functions, such as token transfers, staking, governance, and more.

1. Overview of Optimistic Parallel Execution (OPE)

• Traditional chains use sequential execution mechanisms, which, while maintaining consistency, limit throughput and scalability.

• OPE proposes a solution to this bottleneck: achieving parallel processing of multiple transactions while maintaining consistency.

• Stable adopts OPE as a core performance enhancement strategy, introducing the Block-STM parallel execution engine.

1. Core Principles of Block-STM

① Multi-Version Concurrency Control (MVCC)

• Each memory key supports multiple versions, with transactions reading the last committed version.

• All read and write operations are tagged with version markers for subsequent conflict validation.

② Read-Set / Write-Set Validation Mechanism

• The execution phase records the read (Read-Set) and write (Write-Set) contents of transactions.

• In the validation phase, if a key in the Read-Set is found to be written by another transaction, it is considered a conflict and must be rolled back and retried.

③ ESTIMATE Tagging Mechanism

• The Write-Set of failed transactions is tagged as ESTIMATE.

• Other transactions reading this tag will immediately trigger a wait, avoiding invalid execution.

④ Preset Transaction Order

• All transactions are preset in a fixed order, maintaining consistency whether executed in parallel or validated.

• Ensures that even with retries, all node states remain consistent.

⑤ Collaborative Scheduler

• Safely allocates tasks for execution/validation phases.

• Prioritizes scheduling transactions with smaller indexes (earlier), reducing retry rates and improving throughput.

1. Advantages of Block-STM

• Lock-free parallelism: Based on MVCC, no locks are needed, improving concurrency efficiency for multiple transactions.

• Rapid conflict detection: By using ESTIMATE to preemptively abort dependent transactions, resources are saved.

• Efficient scheduling: Prioritizes early transactions, reducing latency.

• Strong determinism: Even with rollbacks and retries, all nodes ultimately reach a consistent state.

1. Synergy of OPE and OBP on Stable

OPE (Optimistic Parallel Execution)

• Parallel execution of transactions enhances throughput and execution efficiency.

OBP (Optimistic Block Processing)

• Non-parallel but executes blocks in advance:

• During the ProcessProposal phase, executes while gossiping.

• Caches execution results for reuse in the FinalizeBlock phase, avoiding redundant calculations.

The two complement each other:

• OPE addresses concurrent performance bottlenecks, while OBP optimizes execution timing;

• Together, they achieve higher transaction processing capacity and lower latency.

1. Performance Expectations

• Internal testing indicates:

• Combining Block-STM (OPE) with StableDB,

• The transaction processing throughput of Stable can be improved by at least 2 times.

1. StableDB

Two Major Architectural Optimizations of Stable

1. Decoupling State Submission and State Storage

• State submission occurs immediately after execution;

• Disk persistence of state data is completed through asynchronous background processes;

• Benefits:

• Avoids blocking the execution of the next block due to disk writes;

• Significantly improves transaction processing speed and overall system throughput.

1. Introduction of a mmap-based Dual Database System

Efficient state storage structure achieved through memory-mapped files (mmap):

MemDB (Active State Database):

• Resides in memory, mapped to a fixed address;

• Stores current hot states, supporting high-speed lookups;

• Suitable for frequent reads/writes and real-time transaction processing.

VersionDB (Historical State Database):

• Persistently stores earlier states;

• Aimed at archival and audit queries, with low access frequency;

• Used for historical backtracking and validation, non-critical path operations.

1. High-Performance RPC

In building a high-performance blockchain, merely optimizing the consensus mechanism or block speed is not enough. The RPC layer is the interface between the blockchain and users, a key component for achieving end-to-end user experience. Stable proposes a high-performance RPC architecture aimed at breaking through traditional RPC performance bottlenecks.

a. Summary of Stable's Split-Path RPC Architecture

Core Concept of the Architecture: Path Separation (Split-Path)

Stable's RPC system adopts the concept of path separation, completely separating and optimizing read operations and write operations to avoid performance interference.

• Functional Split Nodes:
  Each function is deployed on different lightweight nodes (e.g., read-only/write-only), allowing each type of RPC request to have an independent processing path;

• Edge Node Expansion Mechanism:
  Deploy lightweight, stateless RPC edge nodes in multiple regions, providing low-latency access points close to users;

• Function-Based Path Optimization:
  Optimizes underlying data access paths and data structures based on the characteristics of read/write requests, improving response efficiency.

b. Read Path Performance Metrics

Stable's internal testing shows strong performance in its read path:

Tron Comments

Stable effectively addresses the bottlenecks of traditional blockchains in throughput, I/O, and query performance through the introduction of Stable EVM, Block-STM parallel execution engine, StableDB storage optimization, and Split-Path RPC architecture. Its unique state submission/storage decoupling, memory-mapped databases, and multi-path RPC architecture provide:

• Extremely high execution concurrency and determinism compatibility;

• Extremely low disk latency and state read/write overhead;

• Support for rapid expansion of lightweight edge nodes;

• Optimized on-chain/off-chain resource coordination, enhancing terminal response experience.

However, Stable's highly modular design also presents challenges, such as:

• High system complexity, requiring fine-tuning of mechanisms like schedulers and conflict retries;

• mmap and memory databases still face memory pressure under large state volumes;

• Asynchronous state persistence may increase data consistency management costs under extreme conditions;

• For developers, precompiled contracts and path separation architecture require additional adaptation.
