Excited to finally launch the 0xCode blog. The first article revisits one of the most common assumptions in Byzantine consensus and derives it from first principles. Feedback is very welcome.
One of the most common formulas in Byzantine consensus is one of the most commonly misapplied. 2f+1 is not the general quorum formula. I derive the quorum bounds from first principles and show why applying 2f+1 to an 8-replica network breaks safety. 0xcode.ltd/why-do-many-bft-p…

2¹³⁶²⁷⁹⁸⁴¹−1, discovered today, is the largest known prime. It's a Mersenne prime (2ᵖ-1), which are easier to find. It took nearly 6 years for the GIMPS software to find it after the previous largest known prime. It was also the first Mersenne prime found using GPUs.

Reducing block time in the Tezos protocol is a few line changes, but ensuring that those changes do not compromise the network is a huge task which was possible only by identifying and fixing several bottlenecks. Congrats to the team that made this possible!
⏳ The upcoming “P” protocol proposal for #Tezos reduces block time to 10s, lowering latency and enabling faster finality (20s) on Layer 1, while keeping a low barrier of entry for bakers. Find out how this is possible in our latest blog post 👇 bit.ly/4a4T5x6
