Consensus

AarmaChain Consesus

AarmaChain inherits the Delegated Proof of Stake (DPoS) consensus which is proven to be ideal for public blockchain networks. This consensus uses Proof-of-stake (PoS) consensus at core while leveraging delegation method to empower AARMA staking participation. While giving easy to use infrastructure for staking and delegating, DPoS opens a wide window for both – validators and delegators – to earn yields and rewards on their holding. This ultimately results in increased security for the Aarmachain network.

Under the PoS consensus, node operators will stake a predefined amount of AARMA tokens to be eligible for validating transactions and earn rewards. However this way seems inefficient as any random node validator is assigned to propose a block to blockchain. The DPoS on the other hand, introduces the concept of Node Capacity which increases with each delegation a Node receives. When AARMA holders delegate their tokens to a particular Node, it increases the capacity of Node and puts it at the top of a sequence. The consensus mechanism will prioritize and assign next block production to the Node with highest capacity.

The limitations of PoS have put DPoS forward which now sufficiently meets demand of novel consensus for a new generation of blockchain like AarmaChain. The integration of DPoS will place Aarmachain among leading blockchain networks like Solana, Fantom, Celo and others in the blockchain landscape.
