The recent update of the Monero blockchain seems destined to be one of the most important for the community. Not only does Beryllium Bullet -the name given to the hard fork- improve the levels of anonymity and security but it is also a powerful tool in the future adoption of XMR by optimizing its mining algorithm to bring costs down to historic lows.
The new Beryllium Bullet has a “bulletproof” feature that lowers the size of a transaction from 18kb to 3.5kb. With this, a 96% reduction in fees is achieved, making the cryptocurrency not only attractive for those who seek confidentiality but also for those who prefer higher profitability and lower costs.
Also, the new hard fork improved the ASIC-Resistance of the Monero Blockchain, making Bitmain’s Monero ASICs unusable. Thanks to the confidence generated by this upgrade, XMR experienced a bullish streak of more than 5% on the fork’ s launch day.
The Bulletproof feature is a range proof optimization, which generates a cryptographic validation of the value of a transaction by proving that it is greater than zero and less than a randomly generated number.
Exchanges Lower Withdrawal Fees to CentsAfter this fork was released, Bittrex, one of the most important exchanges in America, announced the reduction of the fees to 0.0001 XMR.

Shortly after Bittrex’s announcement, Binance, the world’s largest Exchange published its decision also to reduce withdrawal fees to 0.0001 XMR. As a result, withdrawals after a trading session are practically 1 cent.
