This is some old code, based off of the hashcash algorithm, that prototypes protecting DNS servers using a proof of work (also UDP). https://github.com/jevinski

- voltagex_ 10y agoMaybe I'm misunderstanding things - is this a particular algorithm (that I could look up in a textbook for example?)
- jevinskie 10y agoAfter looking into it more, I think the implementation is more Coelho et al than hashcash. Sorry, this was long ago for me. http://www.cri.ensmp.fr/classement/doc/A-370-v2.pdf http://www.cri.ensmp.fr/classement/doc/A-370-v2.pdf
