Abstract

In this work, we summarized research in the state-of-the-art Proof-of-Stake protocols like Algorand, Tendermint, and LaKSA. We analyzed and summarized their features and issues. Based on the included research we implement a new PoS protocol that mitigates issues with throughput, scalability, and security.
