Worklog. January Results

Hi everyone!

It’s time to share some early 2026 updates and talk about the latest developments, features, and improvements. Let's dive in!

Web Development

Cellframe Auction

In January, we upgraded the blockchain plugin responsible for bid handling and monitoring. The goal of this update was to improve stability and ensure more accurate transaction processing. At the same time, we enhanced the web backend for participant registration and auction system administration.

Work on the auction mechanisms is still ongoing. We’ve also carried out product testing to validate the logic, scenario resilience, and proper interaction between ecosystem components. The results are being used to further optimize the functionality and prepare it for the next stage of development.

Cellframe DEX

In January, the team focused on actively developing the new Cellframe DEX. The main priority was not only expanding functionality, but also improving usability, transparency, and the overall predictability of the trading experience in real-world conditions.

Over the course of the month, we significantly enhanced the interface logic and transaction windows, redesigned key user flows, and improved error and exception handling. The trading history was updated to display the final transaction amount (Total), and service fees and network fees are now shown separately, making the fee structure much clearer for users.

Special attention was also given to advanced settings. Order execution parameters were refined, including execution policies and order lifetime options. Trading history was moved into a dedicated window, and the lower interface tabs were redesigned based on tester feedback.

In parallel, we implemented and tested a migration mechanism for open orders from the legacy exchange to the new DEX. This ensures that existing orders remain valid and continue operating in the updated version without any loss of price or volume.

History functionality was also greatly expanded. It now supports displaying events, trades, orders, aggregated OHLC data, volumes, and detailed order summaries. Filters by trading pairs, operation types, and limits were added, along with pagination. To ensure stability, these features were further optimized through improved caching.

All updates went through internal and closed beta testing, during which the design and functionality of the DEX tab inside Cellframe Wallet were also actively refined.

This work lays a strong foundation for the full release of the upgraded Cellframe DEX and the continued development of trading tools across the ecosystem.

Stay tuned, more updates are coming very soon!

Cellframe Wallet

In January, the team continued working on improving the stability, security, and overall usability of products across the Cellframe ecosystem.

We released Cellframe Wallet 4.5.9, which includes several important updates to both the interface and application logic. In particular, the UI was refined for vertical mode, and a data reset mechanism was added when switching node connection modes. This significantly improves wallet stability across different usage scenarios.

It’s also worth noting that the DEX tab has been restored in its “classic” format in desktop versions of the wallet. This is a temporary solution while we complete the major redesign of the new Cellframe DEX, which has already entered the beta testing stage. Users who need access to the exchange functionality right now can continue using it without limitations in the current wallet version.

These improvements are part of our structured preparation for larger upcoming releases and lay the groundwork for further development of both the Wallet and the broader network infrastructure.

Wallet Performance Acceleration Plugin

The team also focused on boosting performance and enhancing the user experience of our wallet application.

We are actively developing a specialized plugin designed to make Cellframe Wallet noticeably faster and more responsive. Internal processes are being optimized and operation times reduced so that every user action, from checking a balance to sending a transaction, happens almost instantly. This represents a fundamental architectural upgrade.

Previously, in Ultra-Light mode, communication between the wallet and the node relied on constant polling: the wallet repeatedly queried the RPC node for balance changes and new transactions. This created unnecessary load and delays.

Now, we have implemented a modern event subscription model (WebSocket Pub/Sub). The wallet establishes a smart connection once, subscribes to relevant events, and the RPC node instantly notifies the wallet of any blockchain changes as they happen: without repeated requests.

What does this improve in practice?

• Speed: users see balance updates and transaction status changes almost in real time.

• Efficiency: RPC nodes no longer waste resources processing thousands of identical requests.

• Reliability: network load is reduced, making the system more stable and scalable.

This upgrade is not just a replacement of one mechanism with another, it is a shift to a much more advanced level of blockchain interaction, which will become especially noticeable once the update is deployed to the main network.

Сellframe Node & SDK

Closing Technical Debt and Preparing Node 6.0 Release

In January, the development team reached an important milestone: the most critical portion of accumulated technical debt was addressed. Key SDKs, including DAP SDK and Cellframe SDK, were refactored, new features were added, and the overall project architecture was streamlined.

Currently, the infrastructure is being prepared for full end-to-end testing in the Stage environment. Once these tests are complete, the team plans to release the Node 6.0 release candidate.

DAP Python

A major overhaul of DAP Python was carried out. The module can now be used as a standalone library, independent of the rest of the infrastructure. The current version includes all of Cellframe’s cryptographic mechanisms and the core capabilities of DAP SDK, making integration simpler and expanding potential use cases for third-party developers.

Other Activities

In January, the beta testing of the updated Cellframe DEX took place. We sincerely thank all participants for their involvement and feedback! Your insights and recommendations are invaluable in helping us improve the platform.

Additionally, the 2026 token issuance vote was concluded. The community approved the release of 2 million CELL CF-20 tokens, which will be allocated as rewards to validators for block signing. Please note that the reward staking program ended on 1 October 2025, and currently, rewards are distributed exclusively to network validators. Users who do not plan to run their own masternode can delegate their keys to existing validators.

In January, we also launched a new educational series, “Quantum Digest”, focused on the development of quantum technologies. The first episode covered key events of the year and highlighted why preparing for the quantum era is becoming increasingly relevant today.

Cellframe received an A security rating from the CertiK Skynet monitoring system. This rating confirms the high reliability of our architecture and the resilience of the network. CertiK ratings are an important reference for investors and analytical platforms when assessing blockchain project risks.

Finally, we completed a series of video guides for using Cellframe Wallet. These materials cover the main usage scenarios, including app installation, wallet creation, selecting connection modes, and working with Cellframe Bridge. All video tutorials are available on the official YouTube channel.

Thank you for staying with us! We continue to actively develop the ecosystem and are preparing new updates.
