Lesson Overview

4.8 – How Consensus Mechanisms Work: Consensus mechanisms are the protocols that allow blockchain participants to agree on the validity of transactions. They ensure that all copies of the ledger match without relying on a central authority. Popular models include Proof-of-Work, Proof-of-Stake, and Delegated Proof-of-Stake. Each has its own balance between speed, security, and energy efficiency. Consensus is what prevents fraud, double-spending, or false records. By aligning incentives for honest behavior, these systems maintain network stability. Understanding consensus gives insight into why blockchains remain trustworthy even when thousands of anonymous users participate globally.
