>In experiments, Vault reduced the bandwidth for joining its network by 99 percent compared to Bitcoin and 90 percent compared to Ethereum, which is considered one of today’s most efficient cryptocurrencies. Ethereum is not considered one of today’s most efficient cryptocurrencies, not remotely. One of the most full-featured perhaps, but not efficient. Not even Bitcoin is since the invention of the MimbleWimble prot…

on “Ask HN: Who is hiring? (November 2019)”There's a pretty detailed proposal of a privacy-preserving L2 solution for Zcash, called BOLT ( https://z.cash/blog/bolt-private-payment-channels/ ). The original paper is at https://eprint.iacr.org/2016/701 , and there's a prototype implementation by J. Ayo Akinyele at https://github.com/ZcashFoundation/libbolt . Further development of that implementation is being funded by the Zcash Foundation ( https://github.com…

on “Ask HN: Who is hiring? (December 2019)”>The biggest problem is that blockchains are inherently not scalable. Blockchains can be made extremely scalable. You can break the problem into transaction volume (how many transactions can be processed on average per sec) and transaction velocity (how fast a particular transaction can be approved). Transaction volume scalability results almost entirely from checking that the rules of the system have been followed…
