Decentralization bounds refer to the limits or constraints on the degree of decentralization achievable within a blockchain network or distributed system. These bounds consider the practical trade-offs between security, scalability, and decentralization itself. They help define the spectrum within which a system can operate while maintaining its core properties. Understanding these limits is crucial for evaluating network robustness.
Context
News concerning blockchain upgrades or new protocol launches often addresses decentralization bounds, particularly regarding consensus mechanisms and governance structures. Debates frequently center on whether a protocol sacrifices decentralization for performance or vice versa. This concept is central to assessing the long-term viability and resistance to censorship of digital asset systems.
A new cryptographic sortition model introduces deterministic bounds on adversarial committee influence, enabling smaller, more efficient, and verifiably secure consensus groups.
