Title: Hottest super light client protocols coming out
Post by: bluebeagle on May 21, 2019, 03:07:51 AM

From a Hacker Noon story:
"... blockchain is not perfect yet because it requires a device to synchronize a full copy of consensus data. Geth (Go-Ethereum) client provides multiple types of sync mode: full sync, fast sync, light sync. Diode, a Taiwan-based and U.S.-based blockchain initiative, recently developed a light client protocol called BlockQuick that aims to establish decentralized trust at a low bandwidth.

The following table is a comparison of different types of sync mode, trust model, bandwidth, and duration for Geth, FlyClient, BlockQuick, traditional Web PKI client....."
