Ever wonder how blockchains agree? Proof‑of‑Work miners expend energy to solve puzzles, securing the chain but using electricity. Proof‑of‑Stake lets validators lock coins; bigger stake, higher chance to create blocks and earn rewards. New hybrids—Proof‑of‑Authority, Delegated PoS—blend speed, security, and decentralization, pushing networks toward sustainable, high‑throughput solutions. Consensus is evolving toward efficient models.
