⚡Consensus Mechanism

Overview

Dozer Finance utilizes Hathor Network's innovative consensus mechanism, combining Bitcoin's proven security through merged mining with efficient DAG-based transaction processing. This hybrid approach ensures both security and performance.

Core Components

Merged Mining

Through integration with Bitcoin's network, our consensus mechanism inherits robust security while maintaining energy efficiency. This approach provides strong network protection without requiring additional energy expenditure.

Transaction Processing

The consensus process begins with basic verification, including format validation and signature verification. Network-wide agreement is achieved through consistent application of consensus rules and efficient state transition validation.

Transaction Ordering

Block Hash Entropy

Our system implements a unique ordering mechanism based on block hash entropy. This ensures that transaction ordering is both random and deterministic, providing natural protection against MEV exploitation while maintaining predictable finality.

Settlement Process

Transaction settlement occurs immediately upon validation. The system updates states in real-time and propagates confirmations across the network, ensuring consistent and rapid finalization.

Security Features

Network Protection

The integration with Bitcoin's hashpower provides fundamental security against network attacks. This protection is enhanced by distributed validation processes and comprehensive double-spend prevention mechanisms.

Consensus Guarantees

Our consensus mechanism ensures network-wide agreement on transaction ordering and state transitions. This maintains consistent data integrity and transaction immutability across the network.

Performance Characteristics

The system achieves instant finality through efficient parallel processing and quick validation. This performance scales linearly with network growth while maintaining resource efficiency.

Implementation Details

Node Operations

Nodes maintain network consensus through continuous validation of transactions and blocks. This process includes comprehensive state verification and adherence to network consensus rules.

System Requirements

The consensus mechanism operates efficiently on standard hardware configurations, requiring only basic processing power and regular network connectivity.
