Following our previous explainers, we realized we should also quickly touch on a little something called 'Byzantine Fault Tolerance (BFT)'. 👇
In blockchain, BFT means the network can still reach agreement — even if some validators act maliciously or go offline.
It’s what makes decentralized systems trustless yet reliable. 👇
Cronos EVM uses a consensus model built on Tendermint BFT, where validators must agree on each block’s validity before it’s finalized.
This ensures:
⚡ Fast confirmations
🔒 Security against bad actors
🌐 Continuous uptime — even with faulty nodes 👇
In simple terms:
Byzantine Fault Tolerance = the reason Cronos can keep producing blocks safely and quickly. That’s how the #CROfam stays unstoppable. 💪
Now go dazzle your friends with this new found knowledge.
