- Apr 30, 2022 · 3 years agoDelegated proof of stake (DPoS) is a consensus mechanism that BYDFi, a digital currency exchange, utilizes for block production. Unlike other consensus mechanisms, DPoS relies on a small number of trusted delegates to validate transactions and add them to the blockchain. This approach allows for faster block production and higher transaction throughput. However, it also introduces a certain level of centralization, as the power to produce blocks is concentrated in the hands of a few delegates. Despite this drawback, DPoS has proven to be an effective and efficient solution for block production in the cryptocurrency industry.
