- [3931933-004](https://wulfkaal.github.io/claims/3931933-004) [mechanism/argued] -- Because HSPoS supplements rather than replaces the consensus layer, an existing PoS consensus algorithm can be kept in operation while reputation is introduced through the reward function, permitting a gradual rather than abrupt transition to SPoS.
  > HSPoS enables a transitioning process in which traditional PoS consensus algorithms, can be used and maintained while being supplemented with SPoS characteristics and node reputation. This enables enhanced experimentation and allows a slow transitioning from PoS to SPoS.

- [3931933-005](https://wulfkaal.github.io/claims/3931933-005) [design/asserted] -- Moving a network from PoS to SPoS should proceed by evolving the rewards mechanism in two steps through HSPoS, rather than by switching the consensus mechanism directly.
  > In order to move PoS towards SPoS (Secure Proof of Stake),2 this paper suggests evolving the rewards mechanism in two steps via HSPoS (Hybride Secure Proof of Stake).
