II.Hcash system test, optimisation and post-quantum technical solution development:
1.Hcash Tech Web framework has been completed. Content Framework and CSS framework have been provided

2.Hcashd optimisation and test: when the block size is large, transaction verification takes longer in original code and is more complicated. The performance is much better after optimisation.

3.Stress test of existing Hcash testnet (reduced time between Microblocks further, and block size is increased) and Debug

4.Help development team of Kuoyue technology test on Hcash testate and debug. Our R&D team’s answers to Kuoyue technology team’s questions form a foundation for Hcash operational team’s Q&A and knowledge base

5.Continue improving experimental mining platform’s stability: hardware mining platform (two mining rigs, 13 1080Ti GPU) is completely stable after a few adjustments.

6.To ensure that Hcash post-quantum feature’s R&D work can be completed successfully in late December, we organised the second enclosed Hcash mainnet R&D (the first enclosed R&D: from late August till late October; the second enclosed R&D: from 27 Nov till 26 Dec). The development environment and network environment have been established.

7.MSS/XMSS signature algorithm implementation, testing and optimisation

8.Bliss signature algorithm implementation, testing and optimisation (post-quantum signature algorithm implementation of MSS and Bliss has been published to https://github.com/LoCCS)

9.New SegWit scheme and its relative network protocol coding and testing (in progress)

10.Bliss signature algorithm’s side-channel attack protection solution’s coding, testing and optimisation (in progress)

11.Hcashd ECDSA interface code review and document sorting. Preparation for supporting both ECDSA and post-quantum signature solution(MSS/XMSS/LMS, Bliss) (in progress)

12.HcashWallet ECDSA interface code review and document sorting. Preparation for supporting both ECDSA and post-quantum signature solution(MSS/XMSS/LMS, Bliss) (in progress)
