### PoW chain changes
### PoW chain registration contract
This PoS/sharding proposal can be implemented separately from the existing PoW chain. On the PoW chain a contract is added; this contract allows you to deposit `DEPOSIT_SIZE` ETH; the `deposit` function also takes as arguments (i) `pubkey` (bytes), (ii) `withdrawal_shard_id` (int), (iii) `withdrawal_address` (address), (iv) `randao_commitment` (bytes32), (v) `bls_proof_of_possession`. The proof of possession is **not** verified on the PoW chain.
The initial deployment phases of Ethereum 2.0 are implemented without consensus changes to the PoW chain. A registration contract is added to the PoW chain to deposit ETH. This contract has a `registration` function which takes the following arguments:
1) `pubkey` (bytes)
2) `withdrawal_shard_id` (int)
3) `withdrawal_address` (address)
4) `randao_commitment` (bytes32)
5) `bls_proof_of_possession` (bytes)
The registration contract does minimal validation, pushing most of the registration logic to the beacon chain. In particular, the BLS proof of possession (based on the BLS12-381 curve) is not verified by the registration contract.
