Here are the slides of the hyperchain presentation from Tuesday’s workshops.

The presentation summarizes what hyperchains are about and what problems they are addressing.

My comments:
Technical:
- PoW cons slide – would be nice to show some stats about centralization
- the order of PoS problems should be imo: grinding, nothing and long range as this is the order of their obviousness
- it would be nice to point out that stake grinding degrades PoS into PoW
- point out that in PoS there is no cost of mining two forks in contrast to the PoW
- “hyperchains avoiding problems of pos” – controlling 50% of the stake isn’t malicious at all
Nontechnical:
- aeternity logo not vectorized
- “what is consensus algorithm” slide – there should be a space before opening brackets
- same slide as above – imo, “which chain should we trust”
- same slide – 5 point could be a question as well
- PoW slide – 5 point, “an attacker”
- use dash “—” instead of minus “-” (good practice in general)
- PoS problems to solve slide – 4 point, “an unpredictable”
- “the current state of AE” – “gets”, not “get’s”
- “Hyperchains basic idea” – 4 point, “to be considered for THE election” (missing “a” and “the” are kind of general issue here)
- same slide – “are fed”
- “hyperchains use cases” – consistent big letters, better footnotes

The presentation looks good. Fortunately it doesn’t need to be corrected with regard to the new findings about Hyperchain security.
I agree with Radek’s nontechnical comments, his technical comments are imo not highly important - If you fix them it would be nice but it’s not necessary.
