Dear Referee,

I hope this message finds you well. I am writing to submit my research paper titled “A Decentralized Cryptocurrency Payment Network Based on Email Protocols (SMTP/IMAP)” for your consideration.

Abstract:

This paper proposes a decentralized cryptocurrency payment network leveraging existing email protocols, specifically SMTP and IMAP. By utilizing widely adopted email services as the underlying infrastructure, the network aims to achieve strong anonymity, immutability, censorship resistance, low entry barriers, and zero transaction fees.

Key Innovations:
1. Email Server Mining: Validators are responsible for parsing emails to verify transactions and update the ledger.
2. Decentralized Mail Resolution (DMR): Constructing a distributed address system based on an improved Kademlia DHT.
3. Lightweight BFT-PoS Consensus: Implementing a time window adaptive adjustment mechanism (Δ=30s±20%).
4. Transaction Cost Transfer Model: Achieving zero transaction fees through token inflation, replacing traditional gas fees.

Experimental Results:

The experiments demonstrate that the proposed MailCoin network outperforms traditional blockchain cryptocurrency systems in terms of double-spending attack resistance (success rate <0.01%), transaction throughput (1,218 TPS), and energy efficiency (0.0023 kWh/tx).

I believe this research offers valuable insights into the integration of email protocols with cryptocurrency systems and would be of interest to the community. I look forward to your feedback and any suggestions for improvement.

Thank you for considering my submission.

Best regards,
