High Performance BFT

Definition

Byzantine Fault Tolerant consensus mechanisms engineered for exceptional speed and transaction throughput, often employed in permissioned or federated blockchain networks. These algorithms prioritize rapid finality and high transaction volumes by tolerating a certain number of malicious or faulty nodes within a distributed system. High Performance BFT protocols are crucial for applications demanding swift and reliable agreement among network participants. They represent a key advancement in distributed system design.
