Problem Overview
Slashing Today
Observations
(# Queries) x (Probability of “bad query”) = (Probability Mistake)
(Initial Stake) x (100% - Slash Percentage) ^ (# Mistakes) = (Final Stake)
Consequence: Serving more queries increases consequences
(”Exponential” effect since we number of queries is in exponent of slashing term.)
Alternate Proposal for Slashing: (Slashing) = (Query Fee) x (Multiplier)
Wouldn’t be much of a deterrent.. too expensive to dispute relative to penalty
May be sufficient deterrent, but…
Query Fees in Network in a “Time Period”: $1M Multiplier: 1,000,000 Stake Needed: $1T
There is not enough stake in the ecosystem for such collateral!
Short Time Span Proposal
Yet, query is only timestamped relative to allocation. Would need to add a timestamp to queries (which appears plausible?)
