I was using Enigma yesterday to send a few transactions but it wasn't consistent.

The first tx went using 3, the next using 5 expired and so did the following TX i tried to make. But then the next one using 5 went.

There were 25 nodes online. What holds up or allows Enigma transactions to expire? Is it lack of nodes?

And how does another node accept/validate an Enigma transaction, is it automatic or does the user have to 'okay' it?

Hi Fern

Thanks for the feedback! Enigma requests have a finite time to complete [default 1 minute]. Lack of nodes probably isn't the issue, it's more likely that the request is timing out. You can set a longer timeout by selecting a higher value on the send-coins page in the wallet. There are some improvements planned for the future to speed up onion-routing, which will help to improve the negotiation speed for Enigma transactions.

The accepting/validating by Enigma peers is automatic. As long as the node has Enigma enabled [default], it will participate in Enigma cloaking.

Hope this helps,

Joe






I am specifically interested in the decentralised governance mentioned. Do you have the design for this already and what time frame until implementation?



Hi cryptohunter

Only a rough design for the governance so far. We still have a few technical details to flesh out. In terms of time frame, the work won't start until the project is open sourced as it will require a fork.
