research:

  • Introduced the Base Design section, focusing on the ZCash design's constructions, building an understanding of the data structures and algorithms, and presenting relevant algorithms with comprehensive descriptions.
  • Developed the Staking Extension section, leveraging Base Design constructions to introduce staking mechanics, defining the "Stake" algorithm that transforms shielded coins into voting "staking coins", and the "Reward" algorithm that distributes rewards and restakes coins back into the pool.
  • Created the Consensus Modifications section, detailing modifications to the Carnot Consensus algorithm based on the Staking Extension, introducing mapping of staking coins to validator "shadows", presenting the initial voting construction, introducing a vote aggregation mechanism, and elaborating on vote dissemination and aggregation through a tree overlay.
