Title of Workshop: Blockchain Consensus Mechanisms
Presented by: Rasoul Ramezanian
Abstract: Blockchain is a decentralized ledger where each block is chained to the ledger via a consensus mechanism. In this workshop, from game theory and mechanism design perspective, I overview almost all well-known consensus protocols (such as Proof of Work, Proof of Stake, Delegated Proof of Stake, Byzantine Fault Tolerance, Proof of Authority, Proof of Importance, Proof of Burn, etc.,) and other ideas for consensus (such as Proof of Reputation, Proof of Vote, Proof of Accuracy, etc.). Regarding miners as players, I study the game model (cooperative, non-cooperative, stochastic, etc.) and the incentive compatibility of each consensus protocol.
