Core surfaces

SYS_01

Mysticeti PQ Adaptation

BlockDAG BFT based on a post-quantum adaptation of Mysticeti — not unmodified upstream Mysticeti. Multi-zone scale via QronMesh.

Ordering model

DAG-based

Fault model

Asynchronous BFT

Specification

Draft / RFC

SYS_02

QronGraph v4

High-performance blockdag topology for parallel transaction processing and linear mesh expansion.

SYS_03

Adaptive Sharding

Horizontal scaling via autonomous execution zones designed to scale throughput horizontally through QronMesh — not unbounded capacity claims.

SYS_04

ML-KEM Core

NIST FIPS 203 key encapsulation (ML-KEM-1024) for secure channel setup — not a signature algorithm.
