If a network includes a few nodes that can lie, can the other nodes still reach consensus?
The “two-thirds” threshold ensures that any two votes that pass share at least some honest nodes, so two conflicting results can’t both pass.
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.
My notes are packed with things I’ve learned, and my positions are full of tuition fees.
Take it slow with unfamiliar things; start by practicing with small amounts.
