Nomos
Nomos is a blockchain infrastructure that makes it easy to build network states and other decentralised applications. It serves as a scalable trustless agreements layer for Logos.
Privacy: Nomos protects information associated with all participants, regardless of their involvement in the network. On the infrastructure level, Nomos nodes are confident that their block proposals have a very low probability of being traced. Nomos also provides developers with the tools to build applications with programmable privacy, allowing these applications to keep personal data hidden.
Neutrality: Activity on Nomos is handled in a way that does not compromise the public neutrality of Nomos nodes. This way, nodes can participate in processing transactions without having to make their inclusion public. If a Nomos-native application attempts to censor a user by excluding their transactions, Nomos provides a fallback path to ensure that the transaction is included.
Resilience: Nomos remains operational and protects privacy in the face of complex geopolitical scenarios, surviving challenges like a partitioned internet, heavy censorship, and hostile government action. To attract validators and reduce points of failure, running a Nomos node even on a laptop is easy and straightforward. Scaling to accommodate as many nodes as possible is best accomplished with a consensus protocol that prioritises liveness, resulting in a network that continues operating even in the worst of conditions.
