TL;DR (Too lazy; did not learn)
Congestion management arrives in Tor 0.4.7. It means a quicker Tor. Exit relay operators: Please Improve!. What results would possibly it have on Bitcoin base/higher layers?

Congestion Management Arrives in Tor 0.4.7-stable [1]
Congestion management will eradicate the velocity restrict of present Tor, in addition to cut back latency by minimizing queue lengths at relays. It’s going to end in important efficiency enhancements in Tor, in addition to elevated utilization of our community capability.

Congestion Management Means a Quicker Tor [2]
Customers of Tor variations 0.4.7 and above will expertise quicker efficiency when utilizing Exits or Onion Companies which have upgraded to 0.4.7. Because of this to ensure that customers to see the advantages of those enhancements, we’d like our Exit relay operators to improve to the brand new Tor 0.4.7 secure sequence, asap!

Exit Relay Operators: Please Improve! [3]
The quicker efficiency and elevated utilization of congestion management means that we are going to quickly be capable of use the total capability of the Tor community. Because of this all relays will quickly expertise new bottlenecks. Congestion management ought to forestall these bottlenecks from overwhelming relays fully, however this habits might come as a shock to operators who have been used to the final a number of years of low CPU and bandwidth utilization.

The Future [4]
[…] this doesn’t imply that Tor won’t ever carry UDP site visitors. Quite the opposite, congestion management deployment signifies that queue delay and latency can be far more secure and predictable. This may allow us to carry UDP with out packet drops within the community, and solely drop UDP on the edges, when the congestion window turns into full. We’re hopeful that this new habits will match what present UDP protocols anticipate, permitting their use over Tor.
Many questions cross my thoughts on the sting of metaphysics, others stay solely in physics. Tor, layers, cash, BTC, layers, atomic orbitals of the electron with completely different power ranges, layers, paperwork, extreme synthetic and unjustified layers, liers, attorneys, von der Leyens… life: layers.
A few of these concepts/phrases are influenced/copied by a few of you on this sub. Possibly you’ll be able to recognise your phrases and know that they haven’t been completely ignored. Thanks.
The very first thing that involves thoughts is the LN⚡️. This community is already at present virtually instantaneous. Nevertheless, I feel that within the eyes of uneducated and/or disinterested customers, the quicker the higher.
I’d very very like to experiment with LN, however on account of limitations of my accessible {hardware} assets I can not but allow my very own node. Then I may converse with knowledge and numbers on this specific subject. Within the meantime I can solely do analysis, however with advances like these I enable myself within the meantime to dream of higher transmissions at quantum speeds simply by optimising what we have already got. It appears apparent to me that each networks ought to work collectively and profit us with their velocity and privateness and layers and all the pieces else. Pure engineering.
