The mainnet activation was recorded at round 89,758,000. The 300ms figure describes the protocol's target cadence; it does not guarantee a particular observed block latency or time to finality. -- **Vote pace:** how often validators vote on a block. Lower means faster - confirmations and finality. Drops from 400ms to 300ms. -- **Transactions per block:** the most transactions that can be packed into a - single block. Scales down proportionally. -- **Compute per block (gas):** the total computation a block is allowed to do, - where gas is the EVM's unit for compute. Scales down proportionally. -- **Data per block (bytes):** the largest a single block can get, measured in - bytes. Scales down proportionally. -- **Block reward:** the MON paid to the validator that proposes a block. Shrinks - for the same reason, since blocks are smaller and more frequent. +## Parameter changes -## Backwards compatibility +| Parameter | Before | After | Change | +| --- | ---: | ---: | --- | +| Target vote pace | 400ms | 300ms | 25% shorter | +| Transactions per block | 5,000 | 3,750 | 25% lower | +| Proposal gas limit | 200,000,000 | 150,000,000 | 25% lower | +| Proposal byte limit | 2,000,000 bytes | 1,500,000 bytes | 25% lower | +| Block reward | 25 MON | 18 MON | 28% lower | -This is a consensus-layer change only.
