  • Ben Berger, Offchain Labs - BoLD: Fast and Cheap Dispute Resolution

  • Abstract: BoLD is a new dispute resolution protocol that is designed to replace the originally deployed Arbitrum dispute resolution protocol. Unlike that protocol, BoLD is resistant to delay attacks. It achieves this resistance without a significant increase in onchain computation costs and with reduced staking costs.
