R-Pool and Settlement Markets for Recoverable Wrapper Tokens
In conjunction with Stanford researchers, Circle Research introduces the concept of “R-Pools”, which serve as decentralized insurance for DeFi protocols by facilitating exchanges between unsettled recoverable wrapper tokens for base tokens. This work discusses two designs of such a mechanism: AMM and order book.
Recoverable Wrapper Tokens
Lack of recoverability remains a large barrier to mainstream adoption of blockchain technology from a UX, regulatory, and security perspective. The recoverable wrapper token (RWT) is a configurable mechanism to protect any ERC-20 token from thefts, hacks, and accidental transactions.
Robust Threshold ECDSA Signatures
Identifying misbehaving participants in a multi-party computation is better done sooner than later. Our new protocol shows how to modify the CGG+21 threshold signature scheme to identify misbehaving signers in real time.
Perimeter Protocol
A new standard for credit creation on the internet. Perimeter Protocol is a set of smart contracts built on open standards to enable the seamless exchange of capital on secure, open, and permissionless networks.
