Polkadot launches asynchronous support to enable parallel transaction verification block production

Golden Finance reported that the ecosystem Polkadot team stated that Polkadot has launched asynchronous support for the first time. This enhancement is expected to significantly increase the scalability, cost, speed and flexibility of the network and accelerate the growth of decentralized applications." Asynchronous backup cuts block times in half (from 12 seconds to 6 seconds) , achieving parallel transaction verification block production and increasing the throughput of Polkadot's parachain consensus protocol by 10 times.
