A framework for the analysis of attacks in crypto-currencies requires (a) modeling of game-theoretic aspects to analyze incentives for deviation from honest behavior; (b) concurrent interactions between participants; and (c) analysis of long-term monetary gains. Traditional game-theoretic approaches for the analysis of security protocols consider either qualitative temporal properties such as safety and termination, or the very special class of one-shot (stateless) games. However, to analyze general attacks on protocols for crypto-currencies, both stateful analysis and quantitative objectives are necessary. In this work our main contributions are as follows: (a) we show how a class of concurrent mean-payo games, namely ergodic games, can model various attacks that arise naturally in crypto-currencies; (b) we present the first practical implementation of algorithms for ergodic games that scales to model realistic problems for crypto-currencies; and (c) we present experimental results showing that our framework can handle games with thousands of states and millions of transitions."}],"intvolume":" 118","status":"public","file_date_updated":"2020-07-14T12:47:34Z","month":"09","user_id":"2DF688A6-F248-11E8-B48F-1D18A9856A87","alternative_title":["LIPIcs"],"title":"Ergodic mean-payoff games for the analysis of attacks in crypto-currencies","external_id":{"arxiv":["1806.03108"]},"conference":{"name":"CONCUR: Conference on Concurrency Theory","start_date":"2018-09-04","end_date":"2018-09-07","location":"Beijing, China"},"related_material":{"record":[{"status":"public","relation":"dissertation_contains","id":"8934"}]},"oa_version":"Published Version","date_created":"2018-12-11T11:44:27Z","language":[{"iso":"eng"}]}
