RE: Gridcoin 4.0-2018 General Roadmap Poll - Securing Superblocks
So porting Graphene's DPOS (witness/committee) functionality to GRC? lol..
If it securely improves/decentralizes the NN & enables us to remove the team requirement then sure, but it's reinventing the wheel considering graphene exists.
Looks like we forgot to include DPoS into the stakeweight poll. Through it can be argued to be part of the Masternode option, but that is more of CPoS (C=centralized).
Masternode/DPOS shouldn't be considered in the same option, I'm dissapointed it was left out of the poll.
wEll, technically the option can be added to this poll, but something tells me it is not appropriate. What do you suggest?
Just move on? In the future a graphene fork will probably end up developed.
I think the difference here is that a DPoS blockchain means that all blocks are created through delegation.
DWP seeks to create superblocks and only superblocks through a process that is similar, yet still a bit different, to a DPoS blockchain such as graphene. The main take away is that the Gridcoin blockchain will remain a PoS blockchain if DWP is implemented.
Really, it will be a combination of PoS and dynamic selection (DPoS... sort of) which is an entirely novel idea by my understanding.
