BetaBOLT: validation carried inside the token

Runway for the reference implementation of the BOLT token protocol, now used by three other teams to check their own work.

The reference implementation, which is the thing every other build is checked against.

Latest update· 19d ago

Conformance suite is running against all three implementations

Two hundred and six cases, and it found nine disagreements between the three teams on first run. Seven were their bugs, two were ours, and one of ours was in the specification rather than the code. That last one is why a running reference is worth having.

Most token protocols validate somewhere other than the token: a second layer, an indexer, a service you have to trust to tell you whether your own balance is real. BOLT carries its validation inside the token itself. BetaBOLT is the demonstration of that, and it took fourth at the Texas hackathon.
