区块链共识

区块链就技术层面而言,共识(consensus)是核心。

共识是为了防双花(double spending)

区块链中的共识主要有四类:

  • PBFT: Practical Byzantine Fault Tolerance,实用拜占庭容错

  • PoW: Proof of Work, 工作量证明

  • PoS: Proof of Stake, 权益证明

  • DPoS: Delegated Proof of Stake, 委托权益证明

除了区块链共识,现在还经常提到一个概念:DAG(Directed Acyclic Graph,有向无环图)

PoW

代表:Bitcoin, Ethereum, Litecoin, Zcash, Dogecoin
