Making CRDTs Not So Eventual
Summary: Reliable CRDTs augment eventual consistency with strong queries, selective total ordering, and invariant enforcement under Byzantine failures. Janus asynchronously layers BFT consensus over CRDTs, achieving 21× higher throughput than naively using HotStuff while remaining responsive. (summarized by gpt-5.6-luna on Jul 24 2026)
