Consensus
Doge Protocol will initially use Proof-of-Stake (PoS) consensus and later move on to a PoW + PoS hybrid consensus scheme. At a high level, the Doge Protocol blockchain is a BFT chain that will closely follow Casper CBC consensus model while adjusting the protocol to improvise the liveness property. The uber goal is to build a robust blockchain that’s resistant to byzantine failures while at the same time is decentralized and scalable. The correctness of the consensus model will be verified using TLA+
The first testnet release T0 uses Clique consensus while a subsequent testnet release will switch to PoS consensus.
