In previous posts i told you all about Kadcast protocol in Dusk but now i am gonna tell you all about precision of it. Most blockchains talk about finality.
But you know what?? Dusk actually defines it with precision. In the Succinct Attestation consensus, every block moves through four clear states under Rolling Finality.....
Accepted , has a success attestation but can still be replaced by a lower-iteration block...
Attested , cannot be replaced by any lower-iteration block...
Confirmed , highly unlikely to be reverted...
Final , irreversible under any circumstances...
The transition depends on a simple rule: how many previous iterations lacked a fail attestation (n). Complicated right?? but thats how precision calculated.
An accepted block becomes confirmed only after 2 × n consecutive attested or confirmed blocks appear after it. Once confirmed, it becomes final when its parent is also final.
This design gives the network both speed and safety ... blocks can reach practical finality quickly while still protecting against rare network partitions. I find this very much interesting and want to know your experience about it.. Do you already know about it or just heard from my post right now.. tell me in comment section on whats your opinion on this.
