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","month":"09","date_updated":"2020-01-21T13:21:33Z","ddc":["000"],"author":[{"id":"2E5DCA20-F248-11E8-B48F-1D18A9856A87","full_name":"Chatterjee, Krishnendu","orcid":"0000-0002-4561-241X","last_name":"Chatterjee","first_name":"Krishnendu"},{"orcid":"0000-0003-1702-6584","first_name":"Amir","last_name":"Goharshady","full_name":"Goharshady, Amir","id":"391365CE-F248-11E8-B48F-1D18A9856A87"},{"last_name":"Ibsen-Jensen","first_name":"Rasmus","full_name":"Ibsen-Jensen, Rasmus","id":"3B699956-F248-11E8-B48F-1D18A9856A87"},{"first_name":"Yaron","last_name":"Velner","full_name":"Velner, Yaron"}],"creator":{"login":"dernst","id":"2DF688A6-F248-11E8-B48F-1D18A9856A87"},"publication_identifier":{"isbn":["978-3-95977-087-3"]},"year":"2018","date_published":"2018-09-01T00:00:00Z","external_id":{"arxiv":["1806.03108"]},"_version":26,"accept":"1"}]
