Fast Stochastic Peer Selection in Proof-of-Stake Protocols
Quan Nguyen, Andre Cronje, Michael Kong
The problem of peer selection, which randomly selects a peer from a set, is commonplace in Proof-of-Stake (PoS) protocols. In PoS, peers are chosen randomly with probability propor…
StairDag: Cross-DAG Validation For Scalable BFT Consensus
Quan Nguyen, Andre Cronje, Michael Kong +2
This paper introduces a new consensus protocol, so-called \emph{\stair}, for fast consensus in DAG-based trustless system. In \stair, we propose a new approach to creating local bl…
StakeDag: Stake-based Consensus For Scalable Trustless Systems
Quan Nguyen, Andre Cronje, Michael Kong +2
Trustless systems, such as those blockchain enpowered, provide trust in the system regardless of the trust of its participants, who may be honest or malicious. Proof-of-stake (PoS)…
