A native security model describes the inherent mechanisms a blockchain protocol uses to protect its network and validate transactions. This model is integral to the design of the consensus algorithm and economic incentives for participants. It dictates how the network resists attacks and maintains data integrity without relying on external safeguards. The robustness of this model determines the overall security of the digital asset.
Context
The discussion around native security models primarily compares proof-of-work with proof-of-stake mechanisms and their respective strengths against various threats. A key debate involves the energy consumption of proof-of-work versus the centralization risks associated with validator pools in proof-of-stake. Future developments will likely focus on hybrid security models and advanced cryptographic techniques to bolster network resilience. A strong native security model is paramount for trust in any decentralized system.
