Gasp is a decentralized exchange using optimistic rollup technology for gas-free, native cross-chain swaps with security guarantees and liquidity incentives.

The paper revisits the source of MEV by proposing an extended discrete-time AMM model that incorporates price jumps, demonstrating that CEX-DEX arbitrage profits can match or exceed MEV, thus providin…

The paper introduces ClawCoin, a novel tokenized, compute-cost-indexed unit of account designed to solve the problem of non-transferable compute costs in decentralized AI agent economies.

This survey analyzes various novel cross-chain interoperability protocols to provide a comprehensive framework for evaluating their performance and financial impact within the fragmented on-chain fina…

This paper models Ethereum's mempool as a dynamic scheduling problem using an MDP, showing that dynamic pricing stabilizes the system and maximizes long-run rewards, and that the optimal policy conver…

The paper argues that endogenous tokens on public, permissionless ledgers are not money because the underlying ledger structure fails to provide a cash-like privacy primitive, exposing holders to syst…

This paper proposes a protocol for atomic cross-chain transactions, ensuring atomicity guarantees across different blockchains while preserving autonomy.

This paper proposes eBIM, a software-hardware collaborative paradigm for blockchain infrastructure management using RISC-V, and surveys related research and technologies.

The paper proposes a canonical, end-to-end validation framework to ensure secure integration of Alternative Data Availability (AltDA) systems with Ethereum Layer 2s, demonstrating that L2 integration…

The paper analyzes the potential market impact of a large, unknown Bitcoin holder (the Satoshi overhang) and concludes that the mechanical downside risk is bounded, suggesting the terminal states are…

The paper analyzes Ethereum builder transactions to show that builder centralization is an emergent property of the Proposer-Builder Separation (PBS) architecture, driven by specific order flow and ME…

The paper proposes a Regulatory Compliance Protocol (RCP) to standardize and provide a regulatory framework for the interoperability and tokenization of assets between traditional and decentralized fi…

The paper investigates speculative Oracle Extractable Value (OEV) on Layer-2 blockchains, demonstrating that predictable latency differences in cross-chain oracle updates allow for profitable cross-ch…

The paper analyzes the trade-offs in designing Automated Market Makers (AMMs) and proves a 'trilemma' theorem showing that it is impossible to simultaneously achieve incentive compatibility (IC), weak…

Intercloud proposes a decentralized economic network that achieves eventual consistency and security using a novel 'chilling-effect consensus' mechanism, eliminating the need for global coordination.

Crossroads introduces a smart contract layer for representing assets from various blockchains as ERC-20 tokens on a single backend blockchain, enabling interoperability and smart contract usage.

This paper proposes ALBank, a decentralized banking application built on the Ethereum blockchain and smart contracts, demonstrating that this integration effectively enhances security, transparency, a…

The paper estimates the quantum resources required to break 256-bit ECC cryptography and warns that fast-clock quantum computers could enable on-spend attacks on modern cryptocurrencies, necessitating…
