From Permissioned to Proof-of-Stake Consensus [PDF]
This paper presents the first generic compiler that transforms any permissioned consensus protocol into a proof-of-stake permissionless consensus protocol. For each of the following properties, if the initial permissioned protocol satisfies that property in the partially synchronous setting, the consequent proof-of-stake protocol also satisfies that ...

The Application of Proof of Stake: Advantages, Challenges and Future Development [PDF]
With the development of consensus mechanism, researchers emphasize the need to strengthen the Proof of Stake consensus process. Problem like how to keep the transaction platform protocol fair; how to decentralize the digital transaction system etc.

Practical Large-Scale Proof-Of-Stake Asynchronous Total-Order Broadcast [PDF]
We present simple and practical protocols for generating randomness as used by asynchronous total-order broadcast. The protocols are secure in a proof-of-stake setting with dynamically changing stake.

Looking for stability in proof-of-stake based consensus mechanisms
The Proof-of-Stake (PoS) consensus algorithm has been criticized in the literature and in several cryptocurrency communities, due to the so-called compounding effect: who is richer has more coins to stake, therefore a higher probability of being selected

Proofs of Proof-of-Stake with Sublinear Complexity
Popular Ethereum wallets (like MetaMask) entrust centralized infrastructure providers (e.g., Infura) to run the consensus client logic on their behalf. As a result, these wallets are light-weight and high-performant, but come with security risks. A malicious provider can mislead the wallet by faking payments and balances, or censoring transactions.

Quadratic Voting in Blockchain Governance
Governance in blockchain platforms is an increasingly important topic. A particular concern related to voting procedures is the formation of dominant positions, which may discourage participation of minorities.

An Event Study of the Ethereum Transition to Proof-of-Stake
On 15 September 2022, the Ethereum network adopted a proof-of-stake (PoS) consensus mechanism. We study the impact on the network and competing platforms in a two month event window around the Beacon chain merge.

Existing mechanisms for the Proof-of-Stake and Proof-of-Work decision-making systems in blockchains are thoroughly studied and compared at work. Consensus methods are considered a process of agreeing on a new block that is subsequently added to the ...

Proof-of-Stake Sidechains [PDF]
Sidechains have long been heralded as the key enabler of blockchain scalability and interoperability. However, no modeling of the concept or a provably secure construction has so far been attempted. We provide the first formal definition of what a sidechain system is and how assets can be moved between sidechains securely.
