Blockstream Research(@blksresearch):Standardized parameter sets for hash-based signatures weren’t chosen for Bitcoin. For a SHRINCS proposal, we can trade some of SLH-DSA's enormous signature budget for smaller signatures and cheaper verification. We searched 25,935 parameter sets and found a 5.7 kB candidate, 26% smaller. That trade-off reduces the signature budget from 2^64 to 2^40. In return, signing is 23% cheaper and verification 28% cheaper. Try the parameter explorer: https://t.co/sovY02wF1k Read the post:
