链下网络中路由发现的搜索摩擦研究
On Search Friction of Route Discovery in Offchain Networks
摘要：
离线网络提供了一个很有前途的解决方案，以克服加密货币的可扩展性挑战。然而，目前对链下网络的设计权衡仍然没有很好的理解。特别是，链下网络通常依赖于基于费用的激励措施，因此需要有效发现"良好路线“的机制：费用低（成本效率）和交易路由成功率高（有效性）的路线。此外，路由发现应该是机密的（隐私），并且例如，不透露有关谁与谁交易或有关交易价值的信息。本文分析了路由发现的“搜索摩擦”，即，在节点具有战略性行为的大规模链下网络中路由发现的成本和权衡。作为一个案例研究，我们考虑了Lightning网络和蹦床节点提供的路由发现服务，评估在不同的情况下的权衡也经验。最后，我们开始讨论离线网络的替代收费方案。
英文摘要：
Offchain networks provide a promising solution to overcome the scalability challenges of cryptocurrencies. However, design tradeoffs of offchain networks are still not well-understood today. In particular, offchain networks typically rely on fees-based incentives and hence require mechanisms for the efficient discovery of ``good routes'': routes with low fees (cost efficiency) and a high success rate of the transaction routing (effectiveness). Furthermore, the route discovery should be confidential (privacy), and e.g., not reveal information about who transacts with whom or about the transaction value. This paper provides an analysis of the ``search friction'' of route discovery, i.e., the costs and tradeoffs of route discovery in large-scale offchain networks in which nodes behave strategically. As a case study, we consider the Lighning network and the route discovery service provided by the trampoline nodes, evaluating the tradeoff in different scenarios also empirically. Finally, we initiate the discussion of alternative charging schemes for offchain networks.
