What is a Consensus Mechanism? The Core of Blockchain Trust and Decentralization

Consensus mechanisms are the foundation of blockchain trust — allowing thousands of independent nodes to agree on one version of truth without central control. This in-depth Vegavid guide explains what a consensus mechanism is, how it works, and explores key types like Proof of Work, Proof of Stake, PBFT, and Proof of Authority. Learn how consensus drives decentralization, security, and enterprise blockchain innovation.
