RFC9220 - HTTP Datagrams and the Capsule Protocol
This document describes HTTP Datagrams, a convention for conveying
multiplexed, potentially unreliable datagrams inside an HTTP
connection.
In HTTP/3, HTTP Datagrams can be sent unreliably using the QUIC
DATAGRAM extension. When the QUIC DATAGRAM frame is unavailable or
undesirable, HTTP Datagrams can be sent using the Capsule Protocol,
which is a more general convention for conveying data in HTTP
connections.
RFC9297 - Bootstrapping WebSockets with HTTP/3
The mechanism for running the WebSocket Protocol over a single stream
of an HTTP/2 connection is equally applicable to HTTP/3, but the
HTTP-version-specific details need to be specified. This document
describes how the mechanism is adapted for HTTP/3.
RFC9114 - HTTP/3
The QUIC transport protocol has several features that are desirable
in a transport for HTTP, such as stream multiplexing, per-stream flow
control, and low-latency connection establishment. This document
describes a mapping of HTTP semantics over QUIC. This document also
identifies HTTP/2 features that are subsumed by QUIC and describes
how HTTP/2 extensions can be ported to HTTP/3.
RFC9000 - QUIC: A UDP-Based Multiplexed and Secure Transport
This document defines the core of the QUIC transport protocol. QUIC
provides applications with flow-controlled streams for structured
communication, low-latency connection establishment, and network path
migration. QUIC includes security measures that ensure
confidentiality, integrity, and availability in a range of deployment
circumstances. Accompanying documents describe the integration of TLS
for key negotiation, loss detection, and an exemplary congestion
control algorithm.
RFC8446 -The Transport Layer Security (TLS) Protocol Version 1.3
Abstract
This document specifies version 1.3 of the Transport Layer Security
(TLS) protocol. TLS allows client/server applications to communicate
over the Internet in a way that is designed to prevent eavesdropping,
tampering, and message forgery.
This document updates RFCs 5705 and 6066, and obsoletes RFCs 5077,
5246, and 6961. This document also specifies new requirements for
TLS 1.2 implementations.

VISION FOR A HETEROGENEOUS MULTI-CHAIN FRAMEWORK
DRAFT
Present-day blockchain architectures all suffer from a number of issues not least practical means of extensibility and scalability. We believe this stems from tying two very important parts of the consensus architecture, namely
canonicality and validity, too closely together. This paper introduces an architecture, the heterogeneous multi-chain, which fundamentally sets the two apart.

A Novel Metastable Consensus Protocol Family for Cryptocurrencie
This paper introduces a new family of leaderless Byzantine fault tolerance protocols, built on a metastable mechanism. These protocols provide a strong probabilistic
safety guarantee in the presence of Byzantine adversaries,
while their concurrent nature enables them to achieve
high throughput and scalability.
Measuring Ethereum Network Peers
Ethereum, the second-largest cryptocurrency valued at a peak of
$138 billion in 2018, is a decentralized, Turing-complete computing
platform. Although the stability and security of Ethereum—and
blockchain systems in general—have been widely-studied, most
analysis has focused on application level features of these systems
such as cryptographic mining challenges, smart contract semantics,
or block mining operators.

You may use any (non-human) resource to answer
the questions. You may not collaborate with others.
Generic Construction of Ring Signatures with Efficient
We introduce a novel generic ring signature construction, called DualRing, which
can be built from several canonical identification schemes (such as Schnorr identification).DualRing differs from the classical ring signatures by its formation of two rings: a ring of commitments and a ring of challenges. It has a structural difference from the common ring signature approaches based on accumulators or zero-knowledge proofs of the signer index.
The Gridex Protocol
The Gridex Protocol is a permissionless and non-custodial trading protocol
consisting of a set of persistent, non-upgradable smart contracts on the Ethereum
blockchain. Unlike the current mainstream decentralized exchanges based on the
Automated Market Maker (AMM) model, Gridex is based on order books. With our
novel Grid Maker Order Book (GMOB) model, we have significantly reduced the
resource consumption of running an order book based system, allowing us to deploy
and run it on the Ethereum.
Efficient Zero-Knowledge Arguments for Arithmetic Circuits
We provide a zero-knowledge argument for arithmetic circuit
satisfiability with a communication complexity that grows logarithmically
in the size of the circuit. The round complexity is also logarithmic and
for an arithmetic circuit with fan-in 2 gates the computation of the
prover and verifier is linear in the size of the circuit. The soundness
of our argument relies solely on the well-established discrete logarithm
assumption in prime order groups.
KishuInu Whitepaper
$KISHU is an ERC20 token which started on the Ethereum blockchain April 17, 2021.
The max supply is 100 quadrillion and one of its key functionalities is its decentralized
usage rewards mechanism. For every active user transaction a 2% $KISHU reward
is granted to holders’ decentralized wallets only, fostering a healthy distrubuted
network and community usage. The more $KISHU is actively used, the more rewards
are granted!
On the Instability of Bitcoin Without the Block Reward
Bitcoin provides two incentives for miners: block rewards
and transaction fees. The former accounts for the vast majority of miner revenues at the beginning of the system, but
it is expected to transition to the latter as the block rewards
dwindle. There has been an implicit belief that whether
miners are paid by block rewards or transaction fees does
not affect the security of the block chain.
Shorter Proofs for Privacy-Enhanced Distributed Ledger
We present a new short zero-knowledge argument for the range proof and the arithmetic circuits without a trusted setup. In particular, the proof size of our protocol is the shortest of the category of proof systems with a trustless setup. More concretely, when proving a committed value is a positive integer less than 64 bits, except for negligible error in the 128-bit security parameter,
the proof size is 576 byte long, which is of 85.7% size of the previous shortest one due to Bunzetal.
Attacking Threshold Wallets
Threshold wallets leverage threshold signature schemes (TSS) to distribute signing
rights across multiple parties when issuing blockchain transactions. These provide greater
assurance against insider fraud, and are sometimes seen as an alternative to methods using a trusted execution environment to issue the signature. This new class of applications
motivated researchers to discover better protocols, entrepreneurs to create start-up companies, and large organizations to deploy TSS-based.
This paper provides an architectural overview of the Avalanche
Avalanche is a high-performance, scalable, customizable, and secure blockchain platform. It targets three
broad use cases: 15
– Building application-specific blockchains, spanning permissioned (private) and permissionless (public)
deployments.
– Building and launching highly scalable and decentralized applications (Dapps).
– Building arbitrarily complex digital assets with custom rules, covenants, and riders (smart assets).
Avalanche Native Token ($AVAX) Dynamics
This paper discusses the key implementation details, in particular the
token economics (tokenomics), of the native token of the Avalanche platform, called 5
$AVAX. The native token secures the network, pays for fees, and provides the basic
unit of account between the multiple blockchains deployed on the larger Avalanche
network. For additional details on Avalanche, which serves as a versatile and universal platform, allowing anyone to launch new blockchains with their own rules,
