One thing I learned about: Types of consensus mechanisms in Web3
There are many ways to agree in a network.
Examples:
- Proof of Work: First miner who solves the puzzle creates the block.
- Proof of Stake: Random validator creates the block.
- Delegated Proof of Stake: The next top delegate creates the block.
- Byzantine Fault Tolerant (BFT) Consensus: Supermajority creates the block.
- Proof of Authority: Known authorities create the block.
