Dash Protected Against Several Proof-of-Work Vulnerabilities Post-ChainLocks

Dash Protected Against Several Proof-of-Work Vulnerabilities Post-ChainLocks

The activation of ChainLocks on the Dash network has mitigated several additional threat vectors beyond pure 51% attack chain reorganizations.

Originally meant primarily to secure the network against 51% mining attacks where a single actor gains over half of the network hashrate and proceeds to reverse or change transactions, ChainLocks also mitigates other related and less catastrophic issues…

Bitcoin Erlay Protokoll reduziert die Bandbreite, bietet aber keine vollständige Skalierungslösung

Über ein neues Relay-Protokoll könnte die Bandbreite, die für Bitcoin-Nodes notwendig ist, erheblich reduziert werden. Hierbei handelt es sich jedoch nicht um eine vollständige Skalierungslösung.

The Erlay bitcoin transaction relay protocol: * Reduces bandwidth used to announce new transactions by ~84% * Increases global transaction relay time by ~80% (2.6 seconds) * Has little impact on network…

Bitcoin Erlay Protocol Reduces Node Bandwidth, Does Not Address Scaling Completely

Bitcoin Erlay Protocol Reduces Node Bandwidth, Does Not Address Scaling Completely

A new relay protocol for Bitcoin could significantly reduce node bandwidth, but does not yet represent a complete scaling solution.

The Erlay bitcoin transaction relay protocol: * Reduces bandwidth used to announce new transactions by ~84% * Increases global transaction relay time by ~80% (2.6 seconds) * Has little impact on network privacy * Is compatible with Dandelion relayhttps://t.co/TBlYlFTjpC

The Graphene Block Propagation Protocol: Advantages and Limitations/Challenges

This is the third in a series of articles explaining technical concepts related to on-chain network scaling, block propagation, and other related subjects, tying togther previous articles on bloom filters and invertible bloom lookup tables

In order for a blockchain network to work well, new blocks need to be distributed to other nodes quickly. Lots of research has been done into how to transmit…

What Are Invertible Bloom Lookup Tables?

What Are Invertible Bloom Lookup Tables?

This is the second in a series of articles explaining technical concepts related to on-chain network scaling, block propagation, and other related subjects

Last week, we explored a bloom filteras a data structure that helps identify a set. A related data structure is an Invertible Bloom Lookup Table or IBLT. An IBLT serves a similar function and has the advantage that missing members can be…
