行业现象
挖矿机制在基于PoS算法的TON区块链上是一种特殊现象。在基于PoW算法的老一代区块链网络(比如BTC)上,挖矿是不可或缺的部分。矿工使网络保持运行状态,新区块得以创建,释放的新币也作为奖励被矿工收集。
也就是说,一个全新的代币只能通过挖矿获取,同时因为任何人都可以成为矿工,这也在网络参与者之间创造了更公平、公开的代币分配机制。
Fresh new coins can only be obtained via mining. When considering anyone can become a miner, this creates a more honest and even distribution of tokens among the network’s participants.
次代区块链通过PoS共识算法运行,在这种网络中,挖矿机制不是必须的,这也有效地提升了区块链的交易速度,降低了交易成本。在PoS区块链上,最初由开发者团队负责监督投资者、基金和用户的代币分配和销售,但这是一种与去中心化技术的精神和原则相矛盾的中心化分配策略。
TON区块链是有史以来第一个结合两种共识算法的区块链。它基于权益证明(PoS)技术运行,具有快速且便宜的特征,且最初的代币分配是通过去中心化挖矿实现的,所有参与者的挖矿条件都相同。
我们将其称之为“初始工作量证明”(IPoW),它提供了直接的优势,未来的加密货币项目无疑会采用此方法。在TON上已经创建了许多解决方案和功能,其中之一就是IPoW。
The TON blockchain was the first-ever to combine the two consensus algorithms. The blockchain runs on proof-of-stake technology, making it fast and cheap, but the initial token distribution was enabled by mining, which was decentralized and had the same conditions for all who participated.
This approach, which we’ve dubbed initial proof-of-work (IPoW), provides immediate advantages — it will undoubtedly be used for future crypto projects. On TON, many solutions and functionalities have been created, and one of them is IPoW.
