Collusion-Proof Protocols

Definition

Collusion-proof protocols are designed systems or mechanisms that prevent participants from coordinating their actions to gain an unfair advantage or to subvert the intended outcome. These protocols incorporate cryptographic or game-theoretic principles to ensure that even if multiple parties conspire, their collective actions do not compromise the integrity or fairness of the system. They are vital for maintaining trust in decentralized environments where participants may have conflicting interests.
