A fault tolerant network is a distributed system designed to continue operating correctly even when some of its components fail. In blockchain technology, this means the network can maintain consensus and process transactions despite node outages, malicious actors, or communication issues. This resilience is achieved through redundancy and robust consensus mechanisms. Such networks are fundamental for reliable digital asset operations.
Context
The fault tolerance of blockchain networks is a primary security and reliability concern, often featured in news reports about network upgrades or analyses of system robustness. Discussions frequently compare the fault tolerance capabilities of different blockchain architectures, particularly in the face of potential attacks or significant network disruptions. A highly fault tolerant network is essential for safeguarding digital assets.
