protocol research @ kadena
chainweb is kadena's proof-of-work consensus protocol which extends bitcoin's nakamoto consensus by braiding together multiple parallel chains. i'm currently investigating incentive compatability and other economic properties of the network as well as formally verifying key functions and features.
chaos-based cryptograpy has not been successfully constructed; any ventures to do so have been broken. however, multidimensional or hyperchaotic systems could offer better security properties allowing for computationally efficient and platform-agnostic cryptographic primitives.
