Whitepapers
Four papers describe Tenrai in depth: the project as a whole, the Traidag consensus, the TenQ proof of work and TSP-2 confidential payments.
These whitepapers date from September 2026 and no longer match today's Tenrai everywhere: block rates, finality times and other details have changed since. Updated editions will replace them. Until then, the pages of this site describe the current state.
Overview
The complete project overview: the Traidag consensus architecture, the TenQ work function, post-quantum security across the ownership and consensus path, optional zero-knowledge payments, the declining emission schedule and the genesis allocation.
Consensus
The full protocol specification: certified ordering over a proof-of-work block graph, post-quantum quorum finality, the canonical encoding profile, value accounting and the deployment boundaries.
Proof of work
The proof-of-work function in detail: the byte-level construction, deterministic and Full/Light equivalence proofs, hardware specialization analysis, quantum target search and measured CPU and GPU performance.
Privacy
Optional confidential payments of the native asset: a finite arena of reusable value cells, encrypted recovery capsules, current-state wallet recovery from a seed and a separately budgeted proof inbox for heavy zero-knowledge envelopes.
