🔥 Technical deep dive: Byzantine fault tolerance
The “two-thirds” threshold means that any two successful votes must share at least some honest nodes, so they can’t simultaneously confirm two contradictory results.
When holding large amounts of assets on a chain with very few validators, remember that just a handful of colluding nodes could sway the ledger.
$ATOM is the native coin of Cosmos Hub, a chain that uses a Byzantine fault-tolerant consensus mechanism. Currently 1.432.
