🚧 Project Abundance 🚧
Researching next-gen blockchain architecture (as of 2025) to achieve ultimate scalability in permissionless setting and fully resolve Blockchain Trilemma. May or may not succeed but must be fun.

In the last update I shared that I plan to work on GPU plotting some more, so that is what I did. The “easier” parts of it were done earlier. Now it was time for matching logic and that is more complex, so I decided to dedicate the whole blog post to it.
