Race attack prevention refers to mechanisms designed to thwart attempts by malicious actors to double-spend digital assets by broadcasting conflicting transactions in rapid succession. These measures ensure that only one version of a transaction is accepted and recorded on the blockchain. Effective prevention is vital for maintaining the integrity and security of a cryptocurrency network.
Context
Race attack prevention remains a fundamental security consideration for all blockchain protocols, especially those with shorter block times. A key discussion involves the effectiveness of various consensus mechanisms and network propagation strategies in mitigating such attacks. Future advancements aim to harden network resilience against sophisticated double-spending attempts through improved transaction finality.
