BFT Protocol Optimization

Definition

BFT Protocol Optimization refers to improvements made to Byzantine Fault Tolerance consensus algorithms to enhance their efficiency, speed, and scalability. These optimizations aim to reduce the computational and communication overhead required for nodes to agree on the state of a distributed ledger. The objective is to achieve faster transaction finality and higher throughput while maintaining security against malicious actors. Such advancements are essential for the practical adoption of blockchain technology.
