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.

QuestionLazyLedger: A Distributed Data Availability Ledger With Client-Side Smart Contracts
What the text proposesAl-Bassam's LazyLedger paper, the research origin of Celestia. The base layer orders and makes data available. It does not execute application transitions. Clients check availability with sampling, and applications execute on their own.
Who may writeMustafa Al-Bassam
What is settledBlock data is erasure-coded so a client can sample pieces and gain confidence the whole block was available.
Load-bearing assumptionSampling confidence is probabilistic and depends on the code, the sample count and the adversary.
What this library says afterwardsA lazy base layer will not save an application that loses its own execution rules.
