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 | Thunderella: Blockchains with Optimistic Instant Confirmation |
|---|---|
| What the text proposes | A fast path and a slow path. If a large supermajority is honest and an accelerator proposes quickly, transactions confirm at network speed. If not, the protocol falls back to an underlying chain. |
| Who may write | Rafael Pass and Elaine Shi |
| What is settled | An accelerator proposes. |
| Load-bearing assumption | The optimistic committee is not a marketing 'instant finality' badge. |
| What this library says afterwards | Fallback has to be specified. A diagram with only the fast path is incomplete. |
