FastVer: Making Data Integrity a Commodity
Summary: FastVer extends FASTER with a verify() API for tamper detection and historical-read consistency. Fuses Merkle trees and deferred verification to boost throughput by 1–2 orders of magnitude, with a formal correctness proof and a collision caveat. (summarized by gpt-5-nano on Feb 09 2026)
