PaperProofs of Useful Work from Arbitrary Matrix Multiplication.Revisits the longstanding open problem of Nakamoto consensus on real computation the miner chooses, and gives a proof of useful work for matrix multiplication with 1 + o(1) overhead, so GPUs can reuse their AI compute to secure a chain.Read on arXiv
PaperThe Economics of Proof-of-Useful-WorkA competitive-equilibrium model of a PoUW blockchain: closed-form prices across mining, inference, and "duplex" work, plus why a majority attack stays tied to the block reward once prices adjust.Read on arXiv
