What happens when 100 people agree, but not on exactly the same 67?
That’s an interesting edge in @Dusk_Foundation design. If 67 votes are enough for quorum, multiple groups of 67 could potentially produce valid attestations for one iteration.
So which agreement becomes history?
A Succinct Attestation shows that quorum exists. A Block Certificate goes further: it selects a valid attestation as the consensus record carried into the next block.

That distinction matters economically too, because the certificate determines which voters are actually represented in the history that moves forward.
Consensus isn’t only about proving enough people agreed. It’s also about deciding which agreement becomes history.
