Consortium networks are permissioned blockchain systems managed by a select group of organizations rather than a single entity or the public. Participants in these networks typically share common business interests and collectively govern the network’s protocols, access, and transaction validation. This structure offers a balance between the transparency and immutability of blockchain technology and the need for controlled access and enhanced performance often required in enterprise settings. They facilitate secure and efficient data exchange among known, trusted parties.
Context
In the realm of digital assets and enterprise blockchain, consortium networks are frequently discussed in news related to supply chain management, interbank settlements, and cross-organizational data sharing. The primary debate revolves around achieving sufficient decentralization to gain blockchain’s benefits while maintaining the necessary control for regulatory compliance and operational efficiency. Future developments involve the potential for these networks to bridge with public blockchains, creating hybrid models for broader interoperability. Their role in streamlining B2B processes and fostering collaboration among industry players remains a key area of observation.
This research introduces Q-PnV, a quantum-resistant consensus mechanism that integrates quantum primitives to secure consortium blockchains against future quantum attacks.
