I reimplemented a CAP-aware total-order broadcast protocol in Rust and verified it six ways

In the early 1990s, in a research lab at Cegelec near Paris, a small team I was part of built a way to keep industrial control systems running through hardware failures — the kind that supervise power

Making Autonomous Vehicles Agree at Intersections

Hi, I am Mathesh. I have been working on this project for the last few months at UC Santa Cruz, with guidance from Professor Mohsen Lesani, and I wanted to share the current updates and findings from

Raft Consensus Algorithm

Imagine three servers, each holding a copy of the same database. A client writes x = 5 to the first server. A different client writes x = 10 to the third server at the same moment. Both writes succeed

The Architecture of Trust: A Deep-Dive into Distributed Consensus

As we explore distributed systems at scale, we keep returning to one foundational question: can we achieve a single, immutable version of truth across a network where no single authority is in charge?

Global Distributed Consensus: The Missing Piece in Kubernetes

Early in my time on the Kubernetes team, a customer proposed something that was both brilliant and beyond what we were ready for: a global footprint of clusters, one per region, with a synchronized set of jobs. They were running a low-latency applica...

A Guide to Raft, Paxos, and Consensus Algorithms

TLDR TLDR: Consensus algorithms allow a cluster of computers to agree on a single value (e.g., "Who is the leader?"). Paxos is the academic standard — correct but notoriously hard to understand. Raft

Consensus Mechanisms Explained: How Blockchains Agree Without Trust (And Why This Confused Me at First) 🤝⛓️

When I first heard the word “consensus” in Web3, I thought it meant: “Everyone just agrees… right?” Yeah. No 😅 Consensus in blockchain is actually one of the hardest problems in distributed systems.How do you get thousands (or millions) of compute...

Satoshi Scoop 周报, 2025 年 10月 3 日

加密洞见 Hornet 节点 + DSL：比特币共识的纯粹、形式化、可执行规范的首个可信方案 Toby Sharp 在该论文中展示了一个紧凑、可执行、声明式的 C++ 比特币共识规则规范，能够在单线程上数小时内同步主网至最新区块。比特币共识规则被写在其参考客户端的代码中，但由于存在副作用、可变状态、并发操作和遗留设计，这些代码不适合进行形式化验证。一个独立的形式化规范，可以实现对参考客户端各版本之间以及新客户端实现的验证，通过减少共识分叉漏洞的风险来增强去中心化。然而，鉴于比特币共识逻辑的复杂性...

Limits of kHeavyHash and Alternatives for High-Bandwidth DAG Consensus

Abstract High-throughput blockchain designs based on directed acyclic graph (DAG) consensus promise to vastly increase transaction throughput, but they introduce new challenges in maintaining consensus stability as block rates rise. This paper provid...
