Stateless Infrastructure Source Stateless Infra from Polynya What is Stateless Infrastructure For this blog: stick with blockchain = any chain achieving real-time strict global consensus (including rollups); stateless infra = not a chain, no consensus (or loose consensus), but decentralized complements that interact with the above mentioned blockchains. Current statement: in blockchain world, we have been attuned to honest-majority assumptions, trust running as many nodes as possible is import outside of blockchains, things operate with an honest-minority assumption, as long as there’s one honest party Servers - This one’s obvious and a well-known quantity. Servers with redundancy - Add redundancy and the ability for anyone to spin up a server, and you get some decentralization but also retain the max efficiency of traditional servers. These are maximally decentralized constructions, running peer-to-peer, but there’s no consensus (or loose consensus) run with an honest-minority assumption, and even a network with 10-100 nodes is perfectly decentralized can be certain types there’s one node, thx validity proofs don’t need more (storage proof) Stateless infra can enable a lot of features incorrectly attributed to blockchains, but without the burden of consensus can have a state but not a real-time strict consensus state with strict state transitions associated with blockchains Why do we need stateless infra Current statement: ...

On Crypto Source On Crypto essay by Arnaud Schenk In this essay, Arnaud explains how we approached crypto in the past and how we can progress now towards tools for conspiracy ideology. Crypto space can be summarized into two unaligned baheviors: early believers, mostly drive by cypherpunk ideology mindless and speculative, mostly drive by the gain and care about the good health of the crypto space → Rethink the way to build? ...

The goal of this review is to: Introduction to 0ptima protocol: problem statement, why, and our personal frustations; introduction to tech solutions What is 0ptima + our values How our design chooses + missions Is it an exercise for me to express what we try to achieve with 0ptima. Is still incomplete and requires technical confirmation about our design, it’s time to take the plunge! Today, most systems, applications, and software are closed and cannot communicate together. That directly impacts the user’s experience; that is, they are constrained by using a single client (front and back-end), and their data depends on this client. That means we can record and store our data on the internet but lose it at any moment by depending on centralized platforms and servers. ...
