Abstract
Dragonchain is a decentralized peer-to-peer electronic cash system based on proof-of-work (PoW) consensus, built on Sugarchain's PoW and difficulty-adjustment parameters (5-second blocks, Yespower, SugarShield-N510), with the signature algorithm replaced by post-quantum secure Falcon-512 (drawing on Tidecoin's post-quantum security approach). Dragonchain achieves one of the fastest PoW transaction confirmations in the world with 5-second block times, employs the Falcon-512 post-quantum signature algorithm to resist future quantum computer attacks, and realizes "one-CPU-one-vote" decentralization through the Yespower CPU-friendly mining algorithm. Dragonchain has never conducted an ICO, premine, or private sale — it is a fully fair-launch, community-driven project.
1. Introduction
Bitcoin [1], as the first successful decentralized digital currency, demonstrated the feasibility of electronic payment systems based on cryptographic proofs. However, as blockchain technology has evolved, Bitcoin faces two fundamental challenges:
Slow Transaction Confirmation: Bitcoin's 10-minute block time cannot meet the demands of everyday payments
Quantum Computing Threat: Bitcoin's ECDSA signature algorithm offers no security against quantum computers [2]
Dragonchain addresses both challenges with a systematic solution: - 5-second block time, 120x faster than Bitcoin - Falcon-512 post-quantum signature algorithm, resistant to quantum computing attacks
Dragonchain strictly adheres to Satoshi Nakamoto's "one-CPU-one-vote" principle. Through the Yespower algorithm, mining power is distributed across a wide range of CPU devices, rather than concentrated in GPU farms or ASIC miners.
