I'm not skeptical, yet, just surprised -- haven't had a chance to dig in.
My main concern at this stage is the replication setup time, which needs to be computationally expensive for the strategy to prevent generation attacks. That can possibly be amortized over long-term storage, but it sounds like it might be a long amortization period.
- Taek 9y agoReplication setup also likely could be optimized by ASICs, so attackers willing to spend money on specialized hardware may have a 1000x advantage/asymmetry when it comes to generation attacks
- Kubuxu 9y agoSealing part of the Proof of Replication will in big part require disk IO and won't be possible to do in parallel so ASIC or FPGA won't help you much.
