It’s been seven months since I last posted something here. Since then, I’ve moved from my country to Waterloo, Canada. I’ve been enjoying the calm here, but that doesn’t mean I don’t miss the chaos in my big city!

Hello. I am planning to join the University of Waterloo as a master’s student in the following fall term. This is my first time studying abroad and being this far from home and I’m immensely excited about it. Even though I’m a bit scared and depressed about leaving home, the possibilities that the future hold are enough for me to keep on pushing.

RPoA: Redefined Proof of Activity

Published in Arxiv, 2022

We propose RPoA, a new consensus protocol that builds on top of some of the best features of the previous protocols, such as PoW, PoS, and PoA, and values active service provided by users on the network. While PoA tried to address some of the issues pertinent to PoS and PoW, it still fell short of solving the issues regarding high energy consumption, high resources needed, high mining latency, and the requirement for private blockchains. Our approach tries to address all the mentioned issues and falls in the service-based protocols category that gives mining credit to users as they serve on the network.
