If a few nodes in a network lie, can the other nodes still reach agreement?
Classic BFT protocols require the total number of nodes to be at least three times the number of malicious nodes plus one—in other words, malicious nodes must make up less than one-third of the network.
Here’s the key point: when assessing a blockchain’s security, look at how many validators it has and whether voting power is too concentrated in the hands of just a few nodes.
$ATOM is the native coin of Cosmos Hub, a blockchain that uses a Byzantine fault-tolerant consensus mechanism. Its current price is 1.705.
Understanding the rules helps you make informed decisions; it’s not about predicting whether prices will rise or fall.
Crypto markets are volatile, so use leverage with caution.
