SCRF #ResearchPulse Issue 80 is now live. Dig into a curated weekly list of notable #web3research.
This week's topics include:
đź“Ś MEV Can Be Good đź“Ś zk Solves PCN Privacy Issues đź“Ś To EVM or Not to EVM
Of special interest… https://www.smartcontractresearch.org/t/1976
(2/5) #MEV doesn’t have to be bad for #crypto social welfare. Read about a new scheme for #PoS networks that redistributes a small portion of MEV revenue to increase staking returns.
“Improving Proof of Stake Economic Security via MEV Redistribution” by @tarunchitra and @ks_kulk
(3/5) #PCNs enable fast transactions but create privacy problems. Check out a paper that solves these issues with #zkSNARKs.
“zk-PCN: A Privacy-Preserving Payment Channel Network Using zk-SNARKs” by Wenxuan Yu, Minghui Xu, Dongxiao Yu, Xiuzhen Cheng, Qin Hu, and Zehui Xiong
(4/5) Should your #blockchain be #EVM-compatible? This paper says yes, but notes that non-EVM-compatible blockchains can attract users by offering better features/products.
“To EVM or Not to EVM: Blockchain Compatibility and Network Effects” by @RuizheJia and @stevenydc

Maximum Extractable Value (MEV) is generally viewed as a parasitic aspect of blockchain transactions, but it doesn’t have to be bad for crypto social welfare. Read about a new scheme for Proof-of-Stake (PoS) networks that redistributes a small portion of MEV revenue to increase staking returns.

Payment Channel Networks (PCNs) enable fast off-chain transactions, but they introduce serious privacy issues. Conventional solutions can cause low success rates, but check out a paper that solves these issues with a PCN built with zk-SNARKS.

Should your blockchain be EVM-compatible? This paper catalogs the many advantages, but also notes that non-EVM-compatible chains can attract users by offering better features/products.
