  • tigerbeetle

    The distributed financial transactions database designed for mission critical safety and performance.

    • TigerBeetle is a beautiful example of why correctness is what we should strive for, instead of hyper-focusing on (and settling for) memory safety.

    The design document shows the types of faults they aim to cover:

  • viewstamped-replication-made-famous

    A $20k consensus challenge based on TigerBeetle's implementation of the pioneering Viewstamped Replication protocol.

    • ...and there's also an open bug bounty so if you think that Zig is not a meaningful improvement over C in terms of safety, it's certainly going to be easy money for you :^)
