Bylines, paper authorship, correspondence addresses and the founder blurb under each post named an individual. They name the organisation that published the work instead: the brand on posts and pages, the research byline on papers, and research@ in place of a personal address. Both are what these repositories already used elsewhere — nothing new was coined. Co-authors are untouched. Where a paper named someone else alongside, they stay named; only the one byline changed. Bibliography entries, running heads, PDF metadata and affiliations move with it, so a citation still resolves to whoever the cited paper names. Sample and fixture data uses the placeholder name these tests already use elsewhere, so no assertion changed meaning.

\begin{abstract}
|
|
We present a comprehensive benchmark evaluation of Quasar, the quantum-secure consensus
|
|
protocol powering Lux Network, against six production blockchain consensus systems:
|
|
Tendermint/CometBFT (Cosmos), HotStuff/LibraBFT (Meta/Aptos), Narwhal+Tusk (Sui),
|
|
Ethereum PoS (Casper FFG + LMD GHOST), Solana (Tower BFT + PoH), and the Snow
|
|
metastable-sampling family (prior art for probabilistic-finality protocols). Measurements span eight categories: finality time, transaction
|
|
throughput, validator scalability, message complexity, post-quantum signature overhead,
|
|
dual-certificate finality cost, network partition recovery, and geographic distribution
|
|
effects. With CPU BLS aggregation, Quasar achieves 200\,ms median finality across
|
|
three geographically distributed datacenters. With GPU-accelerated BLS (Metal/CUDA),
|
|
single-datacenter finality reaches \textbf{10\,ms}. At Lux's 1\,B gas block limit
|
|
(\num{47619} txs/block at 21{,}000 gas/tx) a full block clears in $\sim$10\,ms of
|
|
opcode-execution time---a \num{4761904}\,TPS execution-only upper bound (opcode dispatch),
|
|
\emph{not} an end-to-end finality figure; finality is bound by signature recovery,
|
|
settlement conflict-detection, and BLS/PQ finality.
|
|
CPU BLS provides a 100\,ms fallback on commodity hardware.
|
|
At 100 validators, consensus-layer throughput reaches \num{10400}\,TPS with linear
|
|
O($n$) message complexity and graceful degradation under Byzantine conditions---without
|
|
sacrificing quantum resistance. All benchmarks were conducted on identical hardware
|
|
across three geographically distributed datacenters.
