[Cryptography] DSM: deterministic edge state machine (post-quantum, no public ledger/consensus)

[cryptskii at proton.me]

Following up on the DSM beta announcement, I wrote a walkthrough that takes the protocol from first principles. It addresses the objections that tend to be blockers for readers coming from the Web3 space, and shows how DSM achieves what it does without consensus, validators, or global ordering.

Eleven chapters, eight interactive demonstrations.
