Hashing It Out #23: Avalanche - Emin Gün Sirer Sep 19, 2018

Show notes

Revolutionary! On this episode we have the brilliant Dr. Gün Sirer to whet our appetites for Avalanche, a new category of consensus protocol. He distinguishes Avalanche from Paxos/RAFT systems, blockchain, and traditional gossip networks to show how this new algorithm prevents double spends while allowing for high throughput (early tests supporting over 1200 tx/s). We learn about his new coin, Ava, which will test the limits of Avalanche's public consensus on a global scale! The future is exciting!

Show notes

There is increasing talk of Blockchain as a possible alternative for the current Domain Name System, to counter censure and cache poisoning. But what is blockchain and can it really replace DNS? The Domain Name System has been in operation for decades and is the infrastructure that handles billions of queries over the internet.
