Codex Update June 4th - June 10th

The Codex team wrapped up a successful demo at the Logos off-site and now aims to prepare the demo for the Q2 public testnet release potentially coinciding with EthCC.

An internal devnet has been running for the past few weeks and has been used to test the latest version of Codex and can be accessed using the Codex Testnet Starter documentation.

Development is currently broken into three distinct teams:

1. Client, Testing, and Infrastructure
2. Marketplace
3. Research

The following are their team updates.

Client, Testing and Infrastructure

Completed

• Setup similar VPN from home to cloud VPN for router OS similar to MikroTik router and APs; purchased hardware to test - ordered physical SIM adapter for router

Ongoing

• Workshop preparation
• Ongoing scalability work; intially had to fix the Docker build and got updated build with LevelDB, odd stuff happening in cluster but 4.5GiB exchange for upload/download succeeded
• NAT Planning and roll out

Marketplace

Completed

• TBD

Ongoing

• Workshop preparation
• Certora setup & integration
  • WIP in the Certora's Application Properties work
• Persistent Availabilities
• Slot Reservations

Research

2024 R&D Goals
1. Proving system and aggregation improvements (folding or lookups)
2. Aggregator/validator design
3. DHT improvements
4. Tokenomics and incentive design
5. Bandwidth incentives
6. Dynamic data (appendable data)
7. Encryption

Completed

• Ongoing work on details of the dynamic data proposal (the proof parts)
• Helped Nomos with a small FFT issue

Ongoing

• Looking at new research
• Working on Winograd-type NTT
• Working on proof recursion
• Looking into more FFT/NTT algorithms (ECFFT, prime order FFT, etc; we need non-power-of-two sizes for foreign field arithmetic)
• Reliability and Proof Frequency (WIP)
