Community Consensus Engine

Definition

A Community Consensus Engine refers to the decentralized process and technological components through which participants in a blockchain network collectively agree on the validity of transactions and the state of the ledger. This mechanism enables distributed decision-making and maintains the integrity and security of the network without reliance on a central authority. It involves various protocols, such as Proof of Work or Proof of Stake, that allow network nodes to validate and append new blocks. The engine is fundamental to the operation and trustlessness of decentralized digital asset systems.
