Decentralization describes the distribution of power, control, and decision-making away from a central authority to a distributed network of participants. In blockchain technology, this is achieved through distributed ledgers and consensus mechanisms, reducing reliance on intermediaries and fostering censorship resistance. It is a core tenet of many digital asset protocols, aiming for greater network resilience and user autonomy.
Context
The degree of decentralization is a frequent topic in crypto news, influencing discussions on network governance, censorship resistance, and regulatory scrutiny. Debates often arise concerning whether certain protocols have achieved sufficient decentralization to be considered truly autonomous or if they remain subject to undue influence from core developers or large token holders.
This research introduces a cryptographic sortition method providing deterministic committee size, fundamentally enhancing BFT consensus efficiency and security.
