Guardian Set Topology describes the organizational structure and operational parameters of a group of validators or nodes responsible for securing a blockchain network or cross-chain bridge. It defines how these guardians are selected, how they interact, and the rules governing their collective decision-making processes. This structure is crucial for maintaining the integrity and security of transactions within the network. It directly influences decentralization and fault tolerance properties.
Context
The design of guardian set topology is a critical area of research and development for enhancing the security and resilience of decentralized systems, particularly cross-chain protocols. Debates often focus on achieving an optimal balance between decentralization, performance, and resistance to collusion or attack. Observing advancements in this area provides insights into the future security models for interoperable blockchain networks.
