An implementation of Loom's Proof-of-History.
|
Loom is a new achitecture for a high performance blockchain. Its whitepaper boasts a theoretical
|
||||||
|
throughput of 710k transactions per second on a 1 gbps network. The first implementation of the
|
||||||
|
whitepaper is happening in the 'loomprotocol/loom' repository. That repo is aggressively moving
|
||||||
|
forward, looking to de-risk technical claims as quickly as possible. This repo is quite a bit
|
||||||
|
different philosophically. Here we assume the Loom architecture is sound and worthy of building
|
||||||
|
a community around. We care a great deal about quality, clarity and short learning curve. We
|
||||||
|
avoid the use of `unsafe` Rust and an write tests for *everything*. Optimizations are only
|
||||||
|
added when corresponding benchmarks are also added that demonstrate real performance boots. We
|
||||||
|
expect the feature set here will always be a long ways behind the loom repo, but that this is
|
||||||
|
an implementation you can take to the bank, literally.
