Round robin consensus model

Term · Cybersecurity · MLC-T-CYB-003649

A consensus model for permissioned blockchain networks where nodes are pseudo-randomly selected to create blocks, but a node must wait several block-creation cycles before being chosen again to add another new block. This model ensures that no one participant creates the majority of the blocks, and it benefits from a straightforward approach, lacking cryptographic puzzles, and having low power requirements.
