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.
| Question | Snow White: Robustly Reconfigurable Consensus |
|---|---|
| What the text proposes | A proof-of-stake design in the sleepy model: honest nodes may be offline, and the set of stakeholders can change. It is an academic predecessor, not Cardano and not Ethereum. |
| Who may write | Phil Daian, Rafael Pass and Elaine Shi |
| What is settled | A sleepy execution model. Offline honest nodes are not counted as corrupt. |
| Load-bearing assumption | Do not cite Snow White as the consensus of any chain that merely uses the words proof of stake. |
| What this library says afterwards | Sleepiness is an assumption about honest users, not a feature you can bolt on after measuring uptime. |
