Minimmit: Fast Finality with Even Faster Blocks

Published 14 Aug 2025 in cs.DC | (2508.10862v1)

Abstract: Minimmit is a new protocol for State-Machine-Replication (SMR) that extends the '2-round finality' approach of protocols such as Alpenglow to further reduce latency, by allowing for faster progression through 'views'. This preliminary draft provides motivation and pseudocode, together with proofs of consistency and liveness. An updated draft with a proof of optimistic responsiveness, suggested optimizations, and experiments, is to follow.
