  abstractnote = {Recently, high demand and limited scalability have
                  increased the average transaction times and fees in popular
                  cryptocurrencies, yielding an unsatisfactory experience. Here we
                  introduce Nano, a cryptocurrency with a novel block-lattice architecture where each account has its own blockchain, delivering
                  near instantaneous transaction speed and unlimited scalability.
                  Each user has their own blockchain, allowing them to update
                  it asynchronously to the rest of the network, resulting in fast
                  transactions with minimal overhead. Transactions keep track
                  of account balances rather than transaction amounts, allowing
                  aggressive database pruning without compromising security. To
                  date, the Nano network has processed 4.2 million transactions
                  with an unpruned ledger size of only 1.7GB. Nano’s feeless,
                  split-second transactions make it the premier cryptocurrency for
                  consumer transactions.},
