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 | Ouroboros: A Provably Secure Proof-of-Stake Blockchain Protocol |
|---|---|
| What the text proposes | Proof of stake with elected slot leaders and a stated synchronous proof. |
| Who may write | Leaders sampled in proportion to stake, from an earlier snapshot. |
| What is settled | A chain of blocks. Not a claim about a later network's yield or uptime. |
| Load-bearing assumption | Honest majority of stake, and the synchrony the proof uses. |
| What this library says afterwards | Follow-on Ouroboros papers and Cardano's clients are separate. See the study. |
