version 0

misc

• sqlcipher: better document install process or otherwise remove friction of using bundled version

v0-release

• cashierd config has explicit mainnet and testnet configurations, simplify this and have a single endpoint
• use f64 (and only positive/absolute) for amounts only on the client-facing side. internally, use u64 and num of decimals
• change assetID and asset to tokenID and token across project
• drk2: retrieve cashier features and error if don't support the network
• darkfid: match 'bitcoin' to 'btc'

research

Open research questions.

light-clients

• Fast efficient batch DH technique. Currently all new transactions need to be scanned. There should be a means of efficiently batching this test for light clients initially syncing against a server.
• Anonymous fetch using an Oblivious-Transfer protocol. Light clients potentially leak info to servers based on the data they request, but with an OT protocol they do not reveal exactly what they are requesting.

cryptography

• FFT for polynomial multiplication
• finish bulletproofs impl
• halo2 lookup
• read groth permutation paper
• fflonk

blockchain

• basic sequencer architecture design
• basic DHT design
• consensus algorithm
• solve double verify problem (potentially need need a payment inside the contract to handle exceptions)
• research polygon design
• code up a simple demo

product

• move DRK in and out of contracts from the root chain
• first MPC services
• DAO
• auctions
• staking. Look up how TORN was distributed anonymously.
• swaps
• token issuance
• NFTs

dev

• make bitreich halo2 impl
• doc on circuit design

halo2

• mint circuit poc
• burn circuit poc
• research port from jubjub to pasta (success)
• research port from blake2b to sinsemilla and/or poseidon
• solve poseidon gadget to hash >2 elements at a time
• integrate with actual codebase

org

• clean up shared repo and migrate to wiki
