Consensus Comparing Consensus: Bitcoin, Ethereum, and Logos How does Logos' Cryptarchia consensus compare to Bitcoin's Nakamoto consensus and Ethereum's Gasper?
Blend Message Encapsulation in the Nomos Blend Network Encapsulation lies at the heart of how the Blend Network protects proposers against deanonymisation.
Bedrock Services Participating in Nomos Bedrock Services Participating in Nomos Bedrock Services allows node operators to contribute to Nomos while earning rewards.
Consensus Lottery Difficulty in Private PoS: The Case of Cryptarchia Learn how Nomos adjusts the consensus lottery difficulty based on network activity.
Blend The Blend Network: Improving Nomos’ Privacy Guarantees The Blend Network adds privacy to Nomos by hiding the link between block proposers and their proposals.
Consensus The GHOST Fork Choice Rule - And Why Nomos Doesn’t Use It An analysis of the security of GHOST fork choice variants compared to the longest-chain rule.
Blend Stirring, Mixing, Blending: Different Approaches to Proposer Anonymity Proposer anonymity strategies can be compared to the ways a drink is made: by stirring, mixing, or blending.
Rollups How Sovereign Rollups Work & How to Build One on Nomos Sovereign Rollups are independent modular blockchains, only relying on another chain for consensus and data availability.
Bedrock Nomos Notes and the Common Zone Ledger Learn how Nomos implements notes, the partitioned zone ledger, and how this structure facilitates cross-zone transactions.
Nullifiers Designing Nullifier Sets for Nomos Zones: Sparse vs Indexed Merkle Trees A comparative analysis of SMTs and IMTs from the perspective of nullifier sets for Nomos zones.
Consensus Nomos’ Cryptarchia: Improving on Ouroboros Crypsinous Cryptarchia is a PPoS protocol based on Ouroboros Crypsinous, designed specifically for Nomos.
Consensus Private Proof of Stake with Ouroboros Crypsinous Even though Private PoS appears to be a contradiction in terms, Ouroboros Crypsinous was able to make it work.
Consensus The Ouroboros Family of Consensus Protocols: Ouroboros, Praos, Genesis In this article, we will discuss the original Ouroboros protocol, as well as its descendants Praos and Genesis.
NomosDA NomosDA vs Other Data Availability Solutions This article will compare NomosDA with the data availability solutions provided by Ethereum, Celestia, and Avail.
Data Availability Introduction to NomosDA NomosDA provides a mechanism that guarantees that all data from Nomos zones are accessible and verifiable by every network participant.
Coordination Layer A zkVM Survey for the Nomos Coordination Layer The Nomos research team carried out a survey of the top zkVMs earlier this year, and the results are summarised in this article.
Data Availability Why We Chose KZG for NomosDA We decided on the KZG scheme as the PCS for NomosDA, for reasons that will be explained in this conclusion to the PCS series.
NomosDA FRI-based Commitments for Data Availability The FRI scheme is renowned as a cornerstone of STARKs and can also serve as the basis for a polynomial commitment scheme using the DEEP-FRI method.
NomosDA Inner Product Arguments for Data Availability IPAs have been proposed for use in data availability sampling due to several key advantages over the more popular KZG scheme.
NomosDA KZG Commitments for Data Availability The KZG scheme was designed to reduce communication costs. This scheme is therefore a popular choice for use in data availability layers.
NomosDA Commitment Schemes for Data Availability Polynomial commitment schemes play a vital role in the DA process by allowing a prover to commit to a polynomial and later provide proofs that specific evaluations of that polynomial are correct.
