“Wyatt: …I’m really into making things that actually work. So, the main focus actually for the rest of my career after that first gig, doing a lot of algorithms development, was just tuning up large scale data processing jobs and building distributed systems for various different use cases. So, that’s really how #HGTP came up … Read More “Origins of HGTP” »

Diggles “How exactly will the network be able to swap from other main chains. Meaning, how does the interoperability work where you can swap directly from for example Ethereum to Bitcoin, or Dag to Polkadot or a dot. So, I know you touched a little bit on this at the beginning, but maybe you can … Read More “How do cross chain swaps work?” »
“Yep, it’s consensus over consensus. It’s like literally a universe for all the different state channel galaxies, or different L_1 galaxies. Bitcoin is like a part of the universe on its own ledger that’s so far, you need quantum entanglement and a wormhole to get there and connect it – that’s what Constellation did. We … Read More “Hypergraph galaxy analogy” »
“Basically, all it takes is one node in our network, to prevent a sybil attack. Literally if one node has not been compromised or been a part of some kind like collusion attack, this would mean that operators would have to get together and deploy code that is like, you know, not the correct source … Read More “HGTP and security” »
Mathias: “So, you’ve talked a lot about the means of creating our HGTP which is the hypergraph transfer protocol, so are you looking to standardize that in order to allow heterogenous attestation validation of hybrid state channels, not only by Constellation?” Wyatt “That should be handled within the address range, which is something we’re going … Read More “Standardizing HGTP” »
Wow, I mean Mathias that was well, one, thank you for the update and two that was the greatest intro of all time – I got to start bringing you around to parties. Great to be here everybody, I hope you guys are doing all right. I will just off the bat, uh, will not … Read More “Cross chain liquidity – Emissions” »
Diggles: 1. Probably the first question is what is tldr? For those that don’t know that means too long didn’t read. It’s something within the internet culture where if you’ve got something long, it’s just like what are the cliff notes and that’s kind of dating back to the those from the 80s and 90s … Read More “Hypergraph Hour 23 Q&A Wyatt and Diggles full transcript (June 2021)” »
Wyatt: “The data structure used for finality in the vast majority of other networks including Dags is called a block. We have adopted the same phrase for something called a snapshot, which is a sort of like a window within a graph of blocks, such that we can say that this is a converged ledger … Read More “Creating Dags out of existing L1 protocols – Hyperedges” »
