A leaderless architecture describes a decentralized system where no single entity or designated group holds exclusive control over critical network functions, such as block production or transaction ordering. All participating nodes operate under the same rules, contributing equally to the network’s maintenance and security. This design aims to maximize censorship resistance and decentralization.
Context
News frequently highlights leaderless architectures as a core principle of truly decentralized blockchain networks, contrasting them with systems that exhibit some degree of centralization. Such designs are considered more resilient to single points of failure and external influence. The ongoing pursuit of scalable leaderless consensus remains a key area of research and development.
BECP replaces centralized leaders and resource-heavy proof systems with randomized epidemic communication, achieving superior scalability and low latency.
A new consensus protocol leveraging epidemic-style communication eliminates fixed validators, achieving superior throughput and latency for extreme-scale networks.
