About Byzantine fault tolerance:
Bitcoin’s proof of work uses computational power to compete for the right to produce blocks, keeping the ledger consistent as long as the honest party controls the majority of the computing power.
The “two-thirds” threshold ensures that any two approved votes share at least some honest nodes, so two conflicting results cannot both be approved.
