论文摘要
验证区块链会导致重型计算,通信和存储成本。结果,资源有限的客户(称为轻节点)无法独立验证交易,必须信任完整的节点,使其容易受到安全攻击的影响。在这个问题的动机上,我们提出了一个基本问题:可以在没有任何完整节点的情况下安全地验证点点节点吗?我们通过提出覆盖范围来回答,这是一种分散的协议,即使在不诚实的多数下,一组光节点也可以协作验证块,从而达到了与完整节点相同的安全性安全性,而仅需要一小部分工作。特别是,每个节点的工作与参与者的数量(最多可达对数)成比例地缩小,从而导致计算,通信和存储要求,这些要求是跨块大小的sublinear。我们的主要贡献是用于欺诈证明和数据可用性的纯节点协议。
Validating a blockchain incurs heavy computation, communication, and storage costs. As a result, clients with limited resources, called light nodes, cannot verify transactions independently and must trust full nodes, making them vulnerable to security attacks. Motivated by this problem, we ask a fundamental question: can light nodes securely validate without any full nodes? We answer affirmatively by proposing CoVer, a decentralized protocol that allows a group of light nodes to collaboratively verify blocks even under a dishonest majority, achieving the same level of security for block validation as full nodes while only requiring a fraction of the work. In particular, work per node scales down proportionally with the number of participants (up to a log factor), resulting in computation, communication, and storage requirements that are sublinear in block size. Our main contributions are light-node-only protocols for fraud proofs and data availability.
