TheAlgorand Foundation is dedicated to fulfilling the global promise of blockchaintechnology by leveraging the Algorand protocol and open source software, whichwas initially designed by Silvio Micali and a team of leading scientists. Withcore beliefs in the establishment of an open, public and permissionlessblockchain, the Algorand Foundation has a vision for an inclusive ecosystemthat provides an opportunity for everyone to harness the potential of anequitable and truly borderless economy.
KeyCharacteristics
Algorandaims to solve the three main problems faced by blockchains today, also known asthe blockchain trilemma: security, scalability, and decentralization.
InAlgorand’s consensus algorithm, called Pure PoS, the network ties its securityto the honesty of the majority. Essentially, in comparison to DelegatedProof-of-Stake, Liquid Proof-of-Stake or Bonded Proof-of-Stake, there is nosanction mechanism, also known as slashing, in case an actor misbehaves — thinkabout liveness faults such as low uptime, or security faults such as trying tovalidate twice the same block. Rather than punishing bad actors, Algorandprefers to make cheating by a minority of the money impossible and cheating bythe majority stupid. As long as 2/3 of the majority is honest, the protocolwill work just fine.
InAlgorand, blocks are constructed into 2 phases through lotteries known as“cryptographic sortition” enabling fast finality, long gone would be the dayswhere one would have to wait for 30+ confirmations and eventually several hoursto ensure that a transaction really happened.
