We will be awarding a total of $100k in prize money. Amount of time it takes to do look-ups, as long as it beats 1 second per 1 lookup.Amount of memory + disk space being used once plot has been created in response to challenges.Maximum amount of swap space (disk space + memory) that is used during the plotting process.Amount of time to create plot file “wall clock time”.For example, if an entrant enters Track 1, fastest plot, he must also adhere to a minimum threshold of all other 3 performance criteria (smallest swap, smallest plot, time of look-ups). In addition, each submission to each track must reach a minimum threshold of all 4 performance criteria (listed below) that is required for all other tracks. The performance criteria is the amount of memory + disk space being used once plot has been created in response to challenges as well as the amount of time it takes to do look-ups. Implementation with smallest size of plot at rest and can respond to challenges gets a prize.The performance criteria is based on the maximum amount of swap space (disk space + memory) that is used during the plotting process aka “Swap space needed”. ![]() Implementation that uses the least swap space gets a prize.The performance criteria is based on the amount of time to create plot file aka “wall clock time”. Implementation that creates the plot the fastest get a prize.The proof of space competition will be split into 3 tracks for total awards of $100k in prize money. “By having an open competition, we’re making sure that the absolute best implementation anyone has is available to all.”Ĭontestants participating in the three-month competition will create implementations of Chia’s proof of space consensus algorithm. “We’re making sure that the fundamental building blocks of our protocol are confidence inspiring and available to all,” said Bram Cohen, founder of Chia Network. An open source implementation in C++ is available, that can be used as a starting point. In order to be used as a consensus method, Proof of Space is tied to Proof of Time. In Chia’s Proof of Space, rewards are given to farmers that can prove that they are allocating a portion of their disk space to farming Chia. We’re excited to announce Chia’s Proof of Space competition. Chia Network Announces Proof of Space Competition with $100k in Total Prize Money Lipa Long, and Bram Cohen - July 07, 2019
