Four documents, the same five questions.

No throughput league table and no yield. The cells are what this library is willing to say about the text.

QuestionThe Sleepy Model of Consensus
What the text proposesOnly awake nodes participate. A public randomness beacon picks a leader from the awake stake. Sleeping nodes do not have to be online to keep their stake safe.
Who may writeRafael Pass and Elaine Shi
What is settledSleepy means offline, not Byzantine.
Load-bearing assumptionThe paper is not Ouroboros and not Casper.
What this library says afterwardsA reading of the public document. Not a copy of it, and not a claim about a later network that reused the name.
