Abstract
The document introduces an optional, new type of SNPs called Hierarchical SNP (HSNP) that can compress the traditional CSNPs exchange into a variant of merkle tree, hence allowing to support very large databases and adjacency numbers. Such an approach should lead in case of inconsistencies to much faster re-synchronization since only a subset of packets compared to full scale CSNP exchange is necessary to correct the entropy present.
