Trustless Architecture

Definition

Trustless Architecture describes a system designed to operate securely and reliably without requiring participants to trust a central authority or intermediary. Instead, security is maintained through cryptographic proofs, transparent protocols, and decentralized consensus mechanisms. Blockchain networks are a prime example, where transactions are verified by the network itself rather than a single trusted entity. This design principle reduces reliance on human oversight and minimizes points of failure.
