Very cool news via a tweet from Sabastian.

Original tweet:
Woooow, I did not expect this. Congrats and looking forward to seeing some implementations like side chains and SPV like solutions. This is a very big step IMO.
That actually outstanding…
Here is more info on it from Reddit:

similar to the concept of proof of “proof of work” in the sidechain PoPow?

Yes, the ideas are similar, although the details of the construction are different. While PoW sidechains need (NI)PoPoWs, here we base our construction on ATMS – ad-hoc threshold multisignatures – which we introduce in the paper, and you can think of as a flavour of (NI)PoPoS.
