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 | Town Crier: an authenticated data feed from HTTPS using trusted hardware |
|---|---|
| What the text proposes | Town Crier proposes a bridge from an HTTPS website to a contract by running the TLS client inside trusted hardware and attesting the bytes. |
| Who may write | Fan Zhang, Ethan Cecchetti, Kyle Croman, Ari Juels and Elaine Shi |
| What is settled | The enclave opens a TLS session, checks the certificate, and signs the response for the contract. |
| Load-bearing assumption | This is a 2016 research system. It is not a statement that any current oracle runs this code. |
| What this library says afterwards | A reading of the project's public design document. Not a copy, not a benchmark, and not an offer. |
