A proposer's perspective on preconfirmations: a new game in town?

This talk will provide a node operator's perspective on the preconf transaction pipeline by examining incentives and infrastructure best practices. Specifically, ways node operators may attempt to earn higher revenues than peers through custom optimizations will be discussed alongside, related risks, and potential mitigations.

The CBC Casper Roadmap

The CBC Casper roadmap is a plan to implement Proof-of-Stake and Sharding for Ethereum using “correct-by-construction” (CBC) software design methodology. This talk will share new CBC Casper research, including specifications for light clients, liveness and sharding. It will include updates on formal verification and engineering efforts, and a roadmap for (eventual) release.

Next Generation AMMs - Eliminating LVR

Loss-Versus-Rebalancing (LVR) is the most significant form of MEV, yet it has the fewest solutions addressing it. LVR remains a significant challenge for AMMs. This session delves into a comprehensive analysis of how CoW AMM addresses the problem of LVR through its unique batch mechanism. Drawing from 9 months of empirical data, the talk will explore the effectiveness of CoW AMM in mitigating LVR and offer insights into the impact of LVR resistant design on trading outcomes and market efficiency

Agent-based modeling of Execution Tickets

Execution Tickets are currently debated as one of the most promising approaches to streamline incentives at protocol level. We created a holistic overview of potential mechanism designs and implementing an agent-based model to realistically compare different mechanism designs and identify potential drawbacks early on. The agent-based modeling approach is presented together with the results. In the second part, we will guide through running the simulation in the workshop.

Comparing Slashing Penalties on Proof-of-Stake Networks

With the support of the Ethereum Foundation, we have performed an analysis of slashing penalties on the seventy largest proof-of-stake cryptocurrency networks. Using insights from institutional economics and game theory, we consider variance in slashing penalties in terms of the conditions that trigger slashing, the magnitude of penalties contemplated, and the limited cases where human judgment plays a role in determining such penalties.

Oracles for number values

We will overview the history and state of research on how to design a cryptoeconomic oracle that outputs a number value. One wants such tools for price oracles, but also for bringing other information on-chain, e.g. the damages to award from an on-chain insurance contract. We will look at approaches ranging from Vitalik's 2014 SchellingCoin proposal to ideas drawing from social choice theory, including based on recent research. We will explore tradeoffs including resistance to several attacks.

A Standardized Business Model for Decentralized Insurance

We at Etherisc are building the first decentralized insurance on the blockchain. Decentralized means that we are not building a company only, but a standardized protocol and a platform on which many participants can build insurance products and trade risks.
