Numerical experiments on arrival schedules, mining rates, leadership income, and the trade-off between onboarding speed and reward-pool depletion; analytical solutions checked against ODE simulations
Expected mining income related to hash rate and difficulty, including the limits of an average hash rate
blockchain:bedrock:research:post-quantum
Post-quantum note encryption RFC through its first review round; open points: ciphertext on-chain or on Data Availability or storage, KEM size, hash choice (in-review) logos-lips#486; test vectors for note encryption and the new transaction encoding started, cross-checked against two independent implementations
Post-quantum transport RFC rebased with the Blend spec aligned to hybrid-only key exchange (in-review) logos-lips#429; next testnet to ship hybrid post-quantum TLS
