Four documents, the same five questions.
No throughput league table and no yield. The cells are what this library is willing to say about the text.
| Question | Bitcoin-NG: A Scalable Blockchain Protocol |
|---|---|
| What the text proposes | Separate the rare proof-of-work election from the frequent publication of transactions. Key blocks choose a leader. That leader's microblocks carry the transactions until the next key block. |
| Who may write | Ittay Eyal, Adem Ercan Gencer, Emin Gün Sirer and Robbert van Renesse |
| What is settled | Key blocks are mined and decide who may speak. |
| Load-bearing assumption | This is not Solana, and it is not proof of history. The election is still proof of work. |
| What this library says afterwards | A corrupt leader's epoch is real damage. The paper bounds it in fees, it does not erase it. |
