Immutable schema identified by SAIDs (cryptographically agile self-addressing identifiers) which are derived from the cryptgraphic digest of the schema, mean that ACDCs need no shared governance type registries for interoperability....

One of the problems with dynamically reconstructing serializations from a non-persistent data structure is that it is difficult indeed pathologically so, to detect and recover from partial deletion attacks of...

One way to address this is to define Other role pairings that represent the properties of different transactions. For example. In ACDC we use a Discloser-Disclosee model. The Discloser is...

I want to add one other comment which I think is relevant. There are two approaches to cryptographic authenticity i.e secure attribution of data transmitted over the internet. 1) Cryptographically...

@AlexAndrei98 > Extensibility can be had but only by chaining, or appending or otherwise adding on to previous commitments not by in-place extension. Does this mean one cannot simply "convert"(and...
