Finalization of ARC-81 (Participation Key Integrity Hash)

Purpose: ARC-81 introduces a human-readable integrity hash for participation keys used in Algorand’s consensus protocol.

Problem it solves: Helps node operators ensure the integrity of participation keys, preventing silent errors when registering keys for consensus.

Presentation of ARC-84 (ASA-Compatible Smart Contract Tokens)

The new approach was well-received by the​ council

However, it’s important to remain cautious and clearly define the current ​( and future​) technical limitations

The next step is to identify specific use cases

Community members are encouraged to experiment with their own implementations ​to better understand the pros and cons of different approaches

Feedback and comments on the PR are welcome to improve the proposal further
