List of Really Interesting Questions

HalosGhost opened this issue · comments

As we go through this work, we will stumble on really interesting questions which we would love to see explored (but we can't always prioritize). This is an umbrella issue of questions we'll expand as more are identified.

If any of these interest you and you would like to dive into answering it, please feel free to!

  • Is there an easy extension which would enable support for billboard payments (where Bob doesn't have to be online to receive funds from Alice)?
  • Are there other options for spam-prevention aside from moderation-via-identity, disincentives (e.g., fees), or global rate-limiting?
  • What programmability primitives are required to implement what features/guarantees?
    • What features/guarantees might CBDCs actually want to provide?
