A
consensus protocol is an agreement mechanism used by a group of computers or nodes to come to a common decision or decision-making process. It ensures that all participants in a network reach a mutual understanding or consensus about the state of a system or the validity of a transaction. It helps in maintaining trust and preventing conflicts within the network by ensuring that all members agree on the same set of rules and validate information together.
