Interview with Yanislav Malahov
summary
Aeternity is a scalable smart-contract platform whose mainnet runs since November 2018 and whose codebase is written in Erlang; it ships native state channels and early generalized accounts years before Ethereum adopts similar ideas. A live demo is a rock‑paper‑scissors game that uses state channels to achieve near‑instant, fee‑free transactions and only settles disputes on‑chain. Roadmap centers on hyper chains: delegated proof‑of‑stake sidechains that timestamp to a proof‑of‑work parent (Bitcoin recommended) to reuse security without surrendering coins.
