I've only glanced at both papers, but it seems that's also a research paper about Bitcoin & co. [1] http://www.jbonneau.com/doc/BMCNKF15-IEEESP-bitcoin.pdf Apart from that, let me advertise myself a little bit. ;) In case you are interested in the difficulty mechanism (which you only mention briefly), I've recently written about it [2] (official publication) [3] (preprint without paywall). [2] http://link.springer.com/article/10.1007/s12083-015-0347-x [3] http://www.domob.eu/research/DifficultyControl.pdf Good luck with your further research!
