Viewstamped Replication Made Famous

A $20k Consensus Challenge

Brought to you by TigerBeetle in partnership with our friends at the Zig Software Foundation (ZSF).

Do you love distributed systems, high availability and fault tolerance? Do network partitions and consensus protocols scare you? Have you watched War Games, Hackers and Sneakers more than once?

If you answered Yes! to any of the above, then this is your invitation to test our skills and learn consensus the fun way, by hacking TigerBeetle's implementation of the pioneering Viewstamped Replication consensus protocol, and earning bounties of up to $8192 for a correctness bug and up to $2048 for a liveness bug, within scope, in a $20k consensus challenge.
