i seen computer networks this semester. professor taught about hybrid topologies. fully centralised networks are efficient. fully decentralised networks are robust. most networks are hybrids. centralised when speed is important. decentralised and when robustness is important.

that particular lecture on topology stuck in my mind. then i read the description of the hybrid deployment mode from the Sign Protocol doc.

the hybrid mode in Sign Protocol provides a combination of public verification and private execution. there is a government program that performs a private transaction on a permissioned rail in order to maintain confidentiality. the compliance attestations derived from this transaction are publicly verifiable on a verifiable chain. the payment is private in nature. the proof that this payment was compliant in nature is publicly verifiable. the auditors can see this proof. the counterparties also see this proof. nobody is able to see the transaction.

i read the whitepaper twice before i understood what hybrid mode was actually solving. it is the architecture answer to my professor's topology problem applied to sovereign finance.

what do you think? is it the hybrid mode that makes the whole blockchain infrastructure viable for the central banks or is the full transparency still a deal breaker? tell me in comments.
