Proof of Assignment (PoA) vs. Proof of Work (PoW) and Proof of Stake (PoS)
Proof of Work (PoW), Proof of Stake (PoS), and Proof of Assignment (PoA) are cryptocurrency mining protocols. Essentially, they are computer algorithms that allow cryptocurrencies to function. If you’ve been following the crypto world, then you’re probably already familiar with the two main protocols known as PoW and PoS. As it stands, there are […] дальше »
