Cryptography and Security 2024-04-17 v1 Distributed, Parallel, and Cluster Computing

Abstract

BoLD is a new dispute resolution protocol that is designed to replace the originally deployed Arbitrum dispute resolution protocol. Unlike that protocol, BoLD is resistant to delay attacks. It achieves this resistance without a significant increase in onchain computation costs and with reduced staking costs.
