| Aug 8, 2020 at 2:12 | comment | added | Chan-Ho Suh | The point I was making is that Casper started out as a PoS-based finality mechanism on top of the Eth 1.0 PoW chain. In other words, yes, finality is the key way to make this stuff work and it was recognized early on. The current Eth 2.0 design uses Casper finality but combines it with a fork-choice rule to fully be PoS. See arxiv.org/abs/2003.03052 | |
