论文摘要
我们认为,可以根据正式验证技术的进步来使用工作证明共识机制方面的最新发展,以构建分布式支付协议,该协议解决了从成本效率,可伸缩性和适应性的重要经济缺陷来解决当前分散的记录保存系统所共有的。我们使协议能够根据可行的计算统计量 - 系统难度自主调整系统吞吐量。然后,我们对分散市场的正式经济分析进行记录保存,这与我们的协议设计一致,并表明,当块奖励为零时,该系统将承认稳定,自我调节的交易费用水平和跨不同需求水平的等待时间。我们还提供了在商业上可行的环境中实例化此类系统所需的各种技术要求,并确定相关的研究方向。
We argue that recent developments in proof-of-work consensus mechanisms can be used in accordance with advancements in formal verification techniques to build a distributed payment protocol that addresses important economic drawbacks from cost efficiency, scalability and adaptablity common to current decentralized record-keeping systems. We enable the protocol to autonomously adjust system throughput according to a feasibly computable statistic - system difficulty. We then provide a formal economic analysis of a decentralized market place for record-keeping that is consistent with our protocol design and show that, when block rewards are zero, the system admits stable, self-regulating levels of transaction fees and wait-times across varying levels of demand. We also provide an analysis of the various technological requirements needed to instantiate such a system in a commercially viable setting, and identify relevant research directions.
