  • Initial sketch of Mantle operation/transaction for EmPoWering the Consensus
  • Ran Logos blockchain node on a Raspberry Pi Zero 2 at all-hands

DA Sampling

Achieved
  • Adversarial model: calculated recoverability threshold k_c for adversarial nodes in subnetworks and probability of data being unrecoverable, validated against simulations
  • Data Availability Calculator v2 completed with generic encoder adversary calculations
