# EPF Cohort 5 - Week 6
Date: 22/07/2024
### Updates
1. All the members interested in "The Rated List" project self-organized themselves into a telegram group and a discord group.
* Hopinheimer, Ashley and myself are working on the project. Ashley is more inclined towards the formal specification of the DHT. Hopinheimer and I would work on the implementation and simulation part.
2. We had an introductory session with Dankrad and cleared some of our basic doubts on the subject.
3. We drafted together a proposal for the project
4. I dived deeper into peerDAS but am in a more confused state than before. Particularly, I am not sure if the entire block is reconstructed by the validators (full nodes with validators). And if it is not how is the integrity maintained (avialability has a strong probability guarantee)
5. Went through the peerDAS specs
> Most of the resources of my research are maintained under the notes directory of cohort-five repo, [here](https://github.com/eth-protocol-fellows/cohort-five/blob/main/notes/ChiragMahaveerParmar.md) is link. Hope you find something useful there.
### Next Steps
1. Completely map out the peerDAS workings.
2. Read literature (mostly blogs on the ethresear.ch)
