We have established the technical bedrock necessary for distributed hardware design competition and verification:
  • Decentralized Challenge Infrastructure: Deployed a production-ready platform supporting the continuous optimization loop (Section 7), concurrent challenge execution, cryptographic authentication for all submissions, and automated TAO reward distribution.
  • Integrated EDA Server Pipeline: Established a comprehensive and reproducible validation pipeline by setting up containerized EDA Servers using Docker images for miners and validators. This infrastructure integrates industry-standard open-source tools—Verilator (for cycle-accurate simulation), Yosys (for synthesis), and OpenLane (for physical implementation)—ensuring objective, standardized verification and scoring for all designs.
