announcement

Welcome post mentioned briefly initial set of constraints that led to the creation of this project, but I figured it might be helpful to have a short writeup about it that might be helpful for sharing. In short: we’re building a blockchain. By “we” I really mean just me and Alfonso so far, but I hope more people will join over time if they find it interesting.

The big change from the last update is that Alfonso de la Rocha has joined me as a part-time researcher to help with sharding designing. Code-wise, there were also a bunch of performance benchmarks and optimizations.

Hello, world 👋! This is the beginning of hopefully successful thing I call “Project Abundance”. After writing initial set of constraints and thinking about it for quite a while, it is finally time to dedicate all my time to it and see where it leads us.
