Friends,

As you learned from the latest news, we are preparing important changes in the existing network architecture.
Currently, the active work is under way to create a new update "BitWhite Photon", you can follow the progress of this work on Github:

BitWhite Photon
Throughout the development of the platform, we have encountered many difficulties related to JavaScript and the insufficiently good architecture embedded in the core of logic. We see a significant decrease in the speed of the network because of this, it does not suit us and we have to think more and more about how to correct the current situation.

BitWhite Photon as a revolutionary step to a truly bright future promises us a new protocol (Photon), which will combine dpos, pos, pow and dag. Photon does not talk only about the census of the current code in a new language, it talks about writing a new protocol.
We want to create an infrastructure in which the processing of transactions will be handled only by those who really need it, thereby relieving delegates to a minimum.
But despite all we want to act honestly, so that delegates still pretend to be the managers of the network, we do not want to take away their reward and honor from them.
In addition, delegates are the guarantee of decentralization of the project.

Why GO?
It is difficult to find a language that would be both fast and simple enough for DAPP developers. Golang is the best option, because it runs tens of times faster than JavaScript and was developed by Google for its not very experienced programmers. Go is good not only with a rich set of built-in libraries, but also by imposing a single style and recommendations for good code, just read about gofmt.

Database
In addition to slow JavaScript, we are faced with the problem of SQLite (the database that is currently used). The fact is that despite the power of your server, this database still specializes in small sites or client bases with a small information flow. In our situation, even the update of information about the feasts of our delegates becomes a problem, and during a closed investigation we found that SQLite updated about 10 records per second during the network operation.
It's too slow, because sometimes we need to do it much faster. Therefore, we are looking towards a hybrid with two databases, one of them must be superfast, for example RocksDB or LevelDB, these low-level NoSQL databases run hundreds of times faster.

In any case, all this will allow creating an efficient and high-speed ecosystem in which a large number of programs can simultaneously work, a platform with which it will be comfortable for both developers and users.

Seems that the dev team is doing well for this project.. I missed lots of things about this coin, 1st the DPOS, 1mo after the launch I bought a Nodes but up until now I didn't use it for some technicality reason, I hope the dev find ways to set it up the nodes for windows.. I'm not familiar in linux nor ubuntu..
