+## What
+
+~~~
+Perfection is not attainable, but if we chase perfection we can catch excellence.
+
+On the way to perfect monero blockchain synchronization daemon
+  which is correct, simple and efficient.
+
+On the way to perfect peer to peer protocol implementation that
+  forbids arbitrary devitation in peers behavior,
+  balances available resources between unsynchronized and synchronized peers,
+  keeps new block propogation latency as low as possible.
+
+All related layers hierarchy:
+     input/output loop
+            v
+          socket
+            v
+        ssl socket
+            v
+        connection
+            v
+     abstract tcp server
+            v
+     levin protocol + portable storage
+            v
+         net node
+            v
+    cryptonote protocol + core rpc server
+            v
+     cryptonote core + crypto
+            v
+      blockchain db + tx pool
+
+The following layers are not correct:
+  ssl socket,
+  connection,
+  abstract tcp server,
+  net node,
+  cryptonote protocol,
+  tx pool.
+
+The following layers are very inefficient:
+  portable storage.
+
+All above layers aren't simple.
+
+There are few critical errors that must be fixed first:
+  segfaults,
+  enormous RAM usage,
+  enormous CPU load,
+  deadlocks,
+  unexpected delays in asynchronous code.
+
+Work will be done in the following order:
+  fix critical errors,
+  simplify,
+  fix incorrect behvaiour,
+  simplify,
+  add new changes,
+  simplify,
+  increase efficiency,
+  simplify.
+
+The above final aim and related scope require much more than 3 months work.

+Dedicate at least 3 months (12 hours per each day including weekends) to Monero Project for a total of 240.12021 XMR.
