Is a sync Byzantine consensus or not? 08:26 < kanzure> does synchronous mean violates speed of light? 08:27 < andytoshi> Jellyfish: bitcoin does require a syncronous network (though it doesn't require messages arrive in order and some peers can tolerate several minutes or hours of delay without issue, depending how they're using the system) 08:28 < Jellyfish> So it's weakly sync? Why is that? 08:28 < Jellyfish> Thanks andytoshi 08:29 < andytoshi> because that's the weakest assumption we can still get a working network on :P 08:29 < Jellyfish> Why is it not async? 08:29 -!- Dyaheon [~Dya@a91-156-192-24.elisa-laajakaista.fi] has quit [Ping timeout: 268 seconds] 08:30 < andytoshi> because in an async network you can't guarantee that everyone eventually learns about all transactions, so you can't prevent double-spending (at least as far as i can see) 08:30 -!- Dyaheon [~Dya@a91-156-192-24.elisa-laajakaista.fi] has joined #bitcoin-wizards 08:31 -!- adiabat [~adiabat@45.63.20.152] has quit [Remote host closed the connection] 08:31 < andytoshi> i think petertodd has some ideas about sharding that can let peers get closer to async (with respect to the global blockchain) by having spenders give full proofs to receivers 08:32 < andytoshi> but the analysis is complicated, i don't fully grok it 08:33 -!- talmai [~T@c-24-147-97-55.hsd1.ma.comcast.net] has joined #bitcoin-wizards 08:34 -!- Jellyfish [ac38039b@gateway/web/freenode/ip.172.56.3.155] has quit [Ping timeout: 260 seconds] 08:37 -!- adiabat [~adiabat@45.63.20.152] has joined #bitcoin-wizards 08:49 -!- abpa [~abpa@96-82-80-28-static.hfc.comcastbusiness.net] has joined #bitcoin-wizards 08:57 -!- rmwb [~rmwb@2001:df0:ce:1601:e83d:bb83:60d2:4155] has joined #bitcoin-wizards 09:11 -!- BashCo [~BashCo@unaffiliated/bashco] has quit [Ping timeout: 255 seconds] 09:12 < Taek> [18:11:00] amusingly you could produce an exo-timestamper. E.g. whenever you transact you offer a timestamp server to timestamp for it. If you successfully return a useful proof to it.. it gives you tokens yous you can use to ask it to timestamp things later. :P 09:12 < Taek> [18:11:11] --> UnrealLife (~UnrealLif@93.169.153.115) has joined #bitcoin-wizards 09:12 < Taek> [18:11:13] and the timestamp server itself never transacts, except if no one else does for a long time. 09:12 < Taek> ^ that sounds really awesome. 09:13 < Taek> imagine adding an RPC to bitcoin nodes that just allows you to insert some data into their transactions 09:14 < Taek> I guess this has privacy issues for the nodes opening themselves up for this type of service 09:15 < Taek> If I may offer some thoughts on Segwit, it is my hope that the next deployment includes a UASF fallback after something like a 12 month cooldown. There are enough companies in the space supporting segwit to force it through I think 09:15 < Taek> it just needs to be something that everyone obviously has enough time to get on board with, so there's no question which chain is the dominant one in the event of a split 09:16 < Taek> but, I will also say that I believe Bitcoin stagnating here would be better than employing coercion or a hardfork to get more features into Bitcoin 09:16 < Taek> UASF already makes me uncomfortable, and I actively oppose BIP148 because I don't think the deployment horizon is good enough. 09:17 -!- Ylbam [uid99779@gateway/web/irccloud.com/x-rwctbmeirxruchyp] has joined #bitcoin-wizards 09:18 -!- molz_ [~molly@unaffiliated/molly] has quit [Ping timeout: 268 seconds] 09:19 -!- Guyver2 [~Guyver2@guyver2.xs4all.nl] has quit [Quit: :)] 09:20 -!- kristoff_ [~kristoffe@75.37-191-170.fiber.lynet.no] has quit [Read error: Connection reset by peer] 09:21 -!- kristofferR [~kristoffe@75.37-191-170.fiber.lynet.no] has joined #bitcoin-wizards 09:23 -!- Aranjedeath [~Aranjedea@unaffiliated/aranjedeath] has joined #bitcoin-wizards 09:23 -!- moli_ [~molly@unaffiliated/molly] has joined #bitcoin-wizards 09:24 -!- jnewbery [~Thunderbi@static-100-38-11-146.nycmny.fios.verizon.net] has quit [Excess Flood] 09:24 -!- jnewbery [~Thunderbi@static-100-38-11-146.nycmny.fios.verizon.net] has joined #bitcoin-wizards 09:29 -!- rmwb [~rmwb@2001:df0:ce:1601:e83d:bb83:60d2:4155] has quit [Ping timeout: 260 seconds] 09:32 -!- kmels [~kmels@105.62.151.186.static.intelnet.net.gt] has quit [Ping timeout: 240 seconds] 09:44 -!- BashCo [~BashCo@unaffiliated/bashco] has joined #bitcoin-wizards 09:47 -!- tromp [~tromp@ool-944bc443.dyn.optonline.net] has quit [Remote host closed the connection] 09:54 -!- skeuomorf [~skeuomorf@unaffiliated/skeuomorf] has quit [Ping timeout: 272 seconds] 10:24 < bsm117532> Jellyfish, andytoshi you might be interested in amiller's Honey Badger on the topic of async consensus: https://eprint.iacr.org/2016/199 10:26 < amiller> i want to see a partially synchronous blockchain protocol 10:26 -!- rmwb [~rmwb@2001:df0:ce:1601:e83d:bb83:60d2:4155] has joined #bitcoin-wizards 10:26 < amiller> where the chain doesn't have a timing parameter inherently built in, but it can still be usable by people very far away 10:27 < amiller> i was thinking of some kind of approach where the sender of each transaction "chooses" waht timeout they consider acceptable, like if you want to send a coin to mars you would indicate that you want to be on the "2 hours" level of the blockchain 10:27 < bsm117532> amiller: I want to see a dynamically tuned timing parameter, that measures the network size...and the network slows down once you add the node on mars... 10:28 < amiller> sucks to slow everyone down just because there's a small mars colony 10:28 < bsm117532> Just insert a relay. 10:28 < amiller> i still am wondering whether that's inherent or not 10:28 < bsm117532> e.g. make hub and spoke subnets. 10:29 < amiller> pfft, you can't bring practical shortcuts to a discussion about mars 10:29 < sipa> how do you mean, all you need is a wormhole? 10:29 * sipa hides 10:30 < amiller> im hoping there's some theoretically nice solution and we can take the practical shortcuts like a relay when mars is actually colonized 10:30 < amiller> banking financial hubs at the L2 point or something (i forget the details and don't care at the moment, lol) 10:31 < bsm117532> Well, frankly, we should be hub-and-spoking geographic regions too. There's no reason NYC can't reach consensus independently from Tokyo. It's the timing of your cross chain atomic swaps that has to respect the network latency. 10:35 < andytoshi> there's a tradeoff when you're using hashpower for this because you don't want e.g. london's miners to be able to wreck up montreal's consensus by virtue of their larger economy 10:35 < andytoshi> and verifying location is veering into permissioned territory 10:38 < amiller> i want to make a blockchain protocol that combines proof-of-work with proof-of-proximity 10:38 < amiller> so that even if there's a lot of hashpower somewhere else, it doesn't necessarily risk overloading your nearby miners 10:39 < amiller> "if aliens from the Andromeda galaxy are going to hurt me, then I at least want them to have to come here first!" -- Scott Aaronson 10:42 -!- jcluck [~cluckj@pool-108-52-166-30.phlapa.fios.verizon.net] has joined #bitcoin-wizards 10:45 -!- cluckj [~cluckj@pool-108-52-166-30.phlapa.fios.verizon.net] has quit [Ping timeout: 240 seconds] 10:47 -!- tromp [~tromp@ool-944bc443.dyn.optonline.net] has joined #bitcoin-wizards 10:51 -!- tromp [~tromp@ool-944bc443.dyn.optonline.net] has quit [Ping timeout: 240 seconds] 10:53 -!- talmai [~T@c-24-147-97-55.hsd1.ma.comcast.net] has quit [Quit: mining] 10:59 -!- rmwb [~rmwb@2001:df0:ce:1601:e83d:bb83:60d2:4155] has quit [Ping timeout: 255 seconds] 11:00 < bsm117532> amiller: I have thought a few times about using some form of group signature that requires different miners to cooperate -- as a means of measuring network latency or providing a "clock" to the network. It seems easy for a subset of co-located signers to create a group signature faster than the rest of the network, but perhaps this could be used to dynamically partition network regions. 11:35 -!- priidu [~priidu@unaffiliated/priidu] has joined #bitcoin-wizards 11:35 < Eliel_> I've had this vague idea of a chain with transient mimblewimble "bubbles" that can be as local or global as the participants want them to be and can split and join with other bubbles if participants all agree. 11:36 < Eliel_> no idea if that's actually practical though 11:38 < bsm117532> Well with MW the split/join can be done by a 3rd party. The problem is double-spends that occur in different bubbles. 11:39 < bsm117532> It's for this reason that I don't think my ideas about "braids" (DAG-chain) can be combined with MW. In MW a single double-spend causes a fork, and poisons any other transactions coinjoin'ed with the double-spend. 11:39 < Eliel_> I was thinking the bubbles would be separated so that you wouldn't have to worry about other bubbles. 11:42 < bsm117532> Eliel_: don't know how you'd accomplish that... 11:42 < Eliel_> you'd need worldwide consensus for merges/splits of bubbles but inside the bubbles local consensus would be sufficient. 11:44 < bsm117532> That's the problem. The "worldwide consensus" can be easily subverted by issuing a lot of double-spends at low cost. 11:44 -!- Dyaheon [~Dya@a91-156-192-24.elisa-laajakaista.fi] has quit [Ping timeout: 240 seconds] 11:45 < Eliel_> what if the bubble merge/split consensus wasn't itself mimblewimble style?

Everything I can think of relies on trust in geographic location of a particular key. 20:12 < bsm1175321> So back to different PoW.

So...I move all my keys to one datacenter. 20:19 < bsm1175321> amiller: That's why I described earlier using this as a timing measurement tool but not a reward. 20:19 < Taek> iirc amiller had a paper
