bsm1175321synero claims to have sharding and proof of stake.  That's two easter bunnies in one project.  Two too many.12:13
bsm1175321I've been thinking a lot about sharding, and I know of no project that has anything remotely close to a workable idea.12:14
fluffyponySharing seems like a very hard goal to securely satisfy12:15

bsm1175321I'm going to wrap up my braiding project for Scaling Bitcoin in Milan, but after that I'm devoting my attention to sharding.  It's the next major scaling obstacle.12:18

katui still feel uneasy about goedel and proof by exhaustion. once you exhaustively prove program is, in fact, correct, i'm not sure how the axiomatic self-referentiality comes into play.14:34

TaekI hold the belief that sharding is about as viable as proof-of-stake15:07
Taeklooked at it for a while around a year or so ago, and I couldn't convince myself that there's a way to trust something if you don't have all the data15:07
Taekperhaps with snarks15:07
Taekthe problem is that with 100,000,000,000,000 transactions, all it takes is a single invalid transaction that you missed to corrupt everything15:09

TaekIf Coinbase were to execute a mammoth reorg (e.g. 25,000) blocks, how many coins could they recover  that they've spent?16:28
Taekand, would that amount be enough cover the cost of the mammoth reorg (ignoring the fact that any mammoth reorg drives the price down immensley)16:28
katuselloff panic can be insured against, just short even higher amount than you invest in the reorg16:29
smoothThere are a LOT more than 12.5 BTC moved per block16:29
katuTaek: however the reorg is no singular event. eventually you run out of capital to feed the 51%16:29
katuthen what?16:29
smoothif you chain is longer at that point, then there is a good chance everyone continues to mine it16:30

TaekI'm pretty confident that if we ever saw a reorg over some large threshold (perhaps 2000 blocks, but perhaps it'd take all the way up to 10,000 blocks) there'd be a massive reaction from the dev+commerce+mining community where everyone got together and hardforked back to the previous chain16:32
katuunless something changed, bitcoin doesnt actually do that?16:32
Taekgetting a hardfork would require support from everyone, but with an event that big, I think you'd have it16:33
smoothpopcorn futures, not shorting, would be the play16:33

sobob, is the advantage of your impromptu sharding proposal that some nodes wouldn't need to store the entire chain?18:15
soor maybe the idea is that you'd propose simultaneously mining all partitions for N coinbases per block?18:16
somaybe there's a safe way to merge-mine with the right shard ratio18:21

amillerwhat kind of security guarantees do you preserve, when nodes don't store the entire chain18:45
amillerdo you still try to guarantee that all the chains are kept available and consistent18:45
soI'm assuming his impromptu proposal would mean they SPV and verify sometimes18:46

bsm1175321so: That's the definition of sharding, not having to retain the entire UTXO set.19:09
soisn't that also true of another chain?19:10
soor even a sidechain?19:10
bsm1175321We moved our blog to Medium, the ELI5 of blogs: https://blog.sldx.com/three-challenges-for-scaling-bitcoin-e77bd5feebf519:10
bsm1175321Medium insists on appending bullshit at the end of your URLs and preventing you from using most modern elements in your blog.  (like SVG)19:11
bsm1175321so: I'm not sure what you mean...19:11
sowhat can you accomplish with sharding that isn't accomplished with cross chain swaps?19:12
bsm1175321Cross chain swaps are trading one asset for another -- the price floats.  Sharding is a division of labor, there's no "price" associated with a "shard".19:13
soif the throughput is divided then some shards are weaker than others? why should they be equally valuable?19:15
cjdyou could use a pegged price to make the sidechain effectively behave as a shard...19:16
cjdbut the pegging stuff does not sound like it will work WRT incentives19:16
cjdbasically without issuing a shitcoin, there is no incentive to mine - even a sidechain19:16
sofor instance in ether the shard discussions seem to be related to the observation that they're running the same instructions on all machines, so maybe they could run a verification on a fraction as long as one verifier is honest19:17
cjdor 1 machine19:17
cjdbut that's basically PoS in a nutshell since the creators of a PoS currency will just keep most of the coin anyway so they can run it19:18
soin the bitcoin context a similar set of observations lead to related chains or attempts to use the hash throughput more efficiently19:19
cjdthere is a highly annoying realization that you can't proove against double-spends without paying an enormous amount on validation, and any validation which can be skipped will be19:21
cjdsidechains which are hard-pegged to BTC will not be merge-mined unless they somehow pay off the miners...  This is assuming miners are selfish agents, which has been untrue in the past19:22
bsm1175321shards wouldn't be equally "valuable" -- the idea is that if you're willing to contribute 1GB of disk space to the UTXO set, in a bitcoind node, you should be able to store and validate the corresponding fraction.19:36
bsm1175321It's a pure CS problem, not an economic problem.  How to incentize the shard holders is relevant as well.19:37

soshard is then SPV++?19:37
sothere are many ways to save space, though19:38
bsm1175321In a way, yes.  The hard part is proving to shard holders that the *rest* of the UTXO space is consistent/valid.19:38
Taekso: with sharding, ideally you can receive a payment from any shard and still know with absolute certainty that the payment is valid19:39
Taekbut you don't have to validate every shard yourself, only a few of them19:39
Taekor maybe even none of them19:39
Taekmaybe you validate some other piece of data that somehow allows you to believe that none of the shards have been compromised19:40
solook for andrew's question above19:40
-!- pro [~pro@unaffiliated/pro] has quit [Quit: Leaving]19:41
TaekConsistency is definintely a requirement19:41
TaekI hadn't really though about sacrificing availability to achieve sharding19:41
Taekoh, though eventually availability is definitely also a requirement19:42
Taeke.g. you can have temporary unavailability, but a permanently unavailable system is useless as a currency / store-of-value19:42

TaekThere was a paper (or maybe just a blog post?) recently that pointed out the fact that if your 6 confirmations take a long time, security is actually lower than if they take a short amount of time20:12
Taekbecause if they take a while, your theoretical attacker has more time to mine 6 competing confirmations20:12

-!- Samdney [~Samdney@dyn-ant666999.hawo.ipv6.uni-erlangen.de] has left #bitcoin-wizards ["Verlassend"]20:19
soany slowdown suggests a drop in hashrate => less security20:20
Taekit's reasonable that the slowdown also happens just due to randomness, in this case security is also still reduced20:23
