DPoS consensus mechanism

As the underlying platform that supports AI training and operations, CCAI uses AI integration with blockchain to create a new AI public chain (AIChain), including a decentralized AI model training platform, a decentralized AI operating environment, privacy computing and other cores. Function. The AI Chain public chain platform implements CCAI's principles of openness and inclusiveness and is the basic platform of the CCAI ecosystem.

The consensus mechanism is one of the cores of blockchain technology and can ensure the consistency and security of data. In the combination of blockchain and AI, the consensus mechanism also plays a very important role. The selection and implementation of the consensus mechanism need to consider the performance, security, scalability and other factors of the system.

Commonly used consensus mechanisms include PoW, PoS, DPoS, etc. AI Chain uses the DPos consensus mechanism as the consensus mechanism of the public chain.

The full name of DPoS is Delegated Proof of Stake, which is proof of equity. It is a new type of consensus mechanism that verifies and generates blocks by electing nodes instead of generating blocks through competition for computing power like PoW.

The DPoS consensus mechanism has the following advantages:

(1) Efficiency: The number of nodes elected by the DPoS consensus mechanism is smaller, and the time for each round of block production is also shorter, so the transaction speed is faster and higher throughput can be achieved.

(2) Fairness: The DPoS consensus mechanism carries out consensus by electing nodes. Each node has an equal opportunity to generate blocks, avoiding the concentration of computing power in PoW and ensuring the fairness of the network.

(3) Energy efficiency: Compared with the PoW consensus mechanism, the DPoS consensus mechanism does not require a large amount of calculations, so it is more energy efficient and does not cause the problem of energy waste like PoW.

(4) Security: The DPoS consensus mechanism uses a method similar to equity voting to elect nodes. The rights of each shareholder are proportional to the shares he holds. Therefore, the elected nodes are all nodes with strength and reputation, and can Ensure network security.

In general, the DPoS consensus mechanism is an efficient, fair, energy-efficient, and secure consensus mechanism that is suitable for application scenarios that require high throughput, high efficiency, and high security.
