Definition ∞ Incremental updates are modifications or additions made to a system or dataset in small, sequential steps rather than all at once. This approach allows for continuous improvement and adaptation without disrupting the entire operation. In blockchain contexts, it can refer to protocol upgrades or state changes applied progressively.
Context ∞ The concept of incremental updates is highly relevant to blockchain protocol development, particularly concerning network upgrades and scalability enhancements. Discussions often focus on the challenges of coordinating these updates across a decentralized network to ensure network stability and security. The successful implementation of incremental updates is critical for the long-term viability and evolution of blockchain platforms.
