The original intent was to use inherent transactions to prevent needing to vote on-chain, which would spam the chain with worthless votes. Inherent transactions, and our Tendermint library, would use the BFT's processs voting to also vote on all included transactions. This perfectly collapses integrity voting creating *no additional on-chain costs*. Unfortunately, this led to issues such as #6, along with questions of validator scalability when all validators are expencted to participate in consensus (in order to vote on if the included instructions are valid). This has been summarized in #241. With this change, we can remove Tendermint from Substrate. This greatly decreases our complexity. While I'm unhappy with the amount of time spent on it, just to reach this conclusion, thankfully tendermint-machine itself is still usable for #163. This also has reached a tipping point recently as the polkadot-v0.9.40 branch of substrate changed how syncing works, requiring further changes to sc-tendermint. These have no value if we're just going to get rid of it later, due to fundamental design issues, yet I would like to keep Substrate updated. This should be followed by moving back to GRANDPA, enabling closing most open Tendermint issues. Please note the current in-instructions-pallet does not actually verify the included signature yet. It's marked TODO, despite this bing critical. |

Serai
Serai is a new DEX, built from the ground up, initially planning on listing Bitcoin, Ethereum, DAI, and Monero, offering a liquidity-pool-based trading experience. Funds are stored in an economically secured threshold-multisig wallet.
Layout
-
audits
: Audits for various parts of Serai. -
docs
: Documentation on the Serai protocol. -
common
: Crates containing utilities common to a variety of areas under Serai, none neatly fitting under another category. -
crypto
: A series of composable cryptographic libraries built around theff
/group
APIs achieving a variety of tasks. These range from generic infrastructure, to our IETF-compliant FROST implementation, to a DLEq proof as needed for Bitcoin-Monero atomic swaps. -
coins
: Various coin libraries intended for usage in Serai yet also by the wider community. This means they will always support the functionality Serai needs, yet won't disadvantage other use cases when possible. -
processor
: A generic chain processor to process data for Serai and process events from Serai, executing transactions as expected and needed. -
substrate
: Substrate crates used to instantiate the Serai network. -
deploy
: Scripts to deploy a Serai node/test environment.
