"Too long finality" is not in my opinion a sufficient, or perhaps detailed enough reason to dismiss longest chain protocols easily. How do we define exactly "too long finality"? |

We will use the discussion section in this repo to provide short summaries of consensus protocols that we read.
We will create a new discussion for each paper read and tag the "Journal Club" category.
We read these papers in the light of applying them to Filecoin's hierarchical consensus root protocol, i.e., top level. Informally the requirements that we look for when reading these papers are, by order of importance (in addition to the usual security properties considered by any consensus protocols):
