RE: Gridcoin 4.0-2018 General Roadmap Poll - Proof of Research Blockchain
The Beacon Mint scheme safety depends on it's inputs (owed reward, magnitude) to be safe. On the other hand, the scheme contains defensive mechanisms to cope with breach in the owed/magnitude system. It will not put the block-chain to immediate risk even when the inputs are compromised. Of course, I can't call it flawless.
IMO I don't see the need for it at all, if we work towards manual reward claims, then why should insecure properties be imposed on POS? The past insecurities have taken this concept entirely off the table for myself.
That is why there is a poll.
