In one of our previous articles, we defined how our Block DAG is structured and ordered, but we also raised the question that ordering can still shift over time. In this article, we present Taraxaâs method of introducing true finality into Block DAG ordering and all the associated consequences.
In the previous article we explored the ordering challenge. In this article, we will explore how Taraxa achieves fair and efficient block proposals without the use of Proof of Work (PoW).
Taraxa Consensus (3/5): Secure & Fair Block DAG Ordering via Anchor-chain
In the previous article, we saw defining ordering of blocks and transactions in a DAG topology can be a challenge. In this article, we describe Taraxaâs mechanism for ensuring not just ordering, but secure and fair ordering in a block DAG.
Taraxa Consensus (2/5): Inclusive + Green: Block DAG and PoS
Itâs no secret that, even for the technically inclined, blockchain technical whitepapers can be a bit dense. Here we create a series of articles that try to break down Taraxaâs whitepaperâs technical jargon into more reader-friendly vignettes (with more pictures!) for your reading pleasure.
