报告摘要:

In this talk, Dr. Zhao will first give an overview of the blockchain technology as it is used in Bitcoin. Then he will examine the evolution of the blockchain technology, from the dream of a digital currency, to the creation of Bitcoin, to the smart contract based Ethereum, and a new crop of mechanisms for building distributed consensus and trust. He will conclude his talk by discussing the role played by randomization in reaching consensus and trust in an open untrusted environment, and the impact of asynchrony to the consensus process. Specific topics this talk will cover include the data structure of the blockchain, proof of work, proof of stake, proof of authority, forks and conflict resolution, attacks on blockchain, the FLP impossibility result for asynchronous distributed system, the Ben-Or randomized consensus algorithm, optimistic replication, and Byzantine fault tolerance.
