A deep dive into Yellow Papers

A yellow paper is a type of technical document that describes a specific project, protocol or technology in detail. It is often associated with the context of cryptocurrencies and blockchain.

Yellow paper is similar to a white paper, but with a more technical and specific level of detail. While a white paper may provide a general overview of a project or technology, a Yellow paper focuses on more technical aspects such as architecture, protocols, algorithms, and underlying mathematical formulas.

The origin of the term "Yellow paper" dates back to the famous Bitcoin white paper written by Satoshi Nakamoto in 2008, titled "Bitcoin: A Peer-to-Peer Electronic Cash System." Subsequently, Ethereum, a leading blockchain platform, adopted the term "Yellow paper" for the technical document describing the operation and design of the Ethereum protocol.

The Quadrans blockchain yellow paper was drafted by Michele Battagliola, Andrea Flamini, Riccardo Longo, Alessio Meneghetti and Massimiliano Sala and reviewed by Davide Costa (Founder & Member of the Board of Trustees) and Fabio Fiori (Member) of the Quadrans Foundation. In the Quadrans yellow papers they aim to achieve scalability with- out losing security or decentralization.

Yellow papers provide in-depth technical details, often supported by mathematical models and formulas, to help developers and experts better understand the concepts and implementations behind a design or technology. They are usually aimed at a community of experts and those who wish to learn more about a particular technical topic.
