Definition ∞ A cryptoeconomic safety model describes mechanisms designed to secure a blockchain network through cryptography and economic principles. It ensures participants act honestly by making malicious behavior financially disadvantageous. This model relies on game theory and tokenomics to align participant incentives with system security. It is fundamental to the stability of many proof-of-stake systems.
Context ∞ The efficacy of various cryptoeconomic safety models is a central debate in the development of new blockchain protocols. News often covers analyses of these models, especially after security incidents. The continuous refinement of these models seeks to enhance resilience against sophisticated attacks.
