How Algorand Consensus Works

 One block is added to Algorand blockchain each round through the following multi-phase process.

Block Proposal Generation

A small, random subset of accounts generate block proposals from submitted transactions.

  • They self-select to become proposers by running a verifiable random function (VRF) against their participation key.
  • Likelihood of selection is dependent on stake.
  • Each selected account assembles a new block and propagates it across the network, along with the VRF proof.

Soft Vote

Another randomly-selected, larger subset of accounts (again using VRF) works together to determine which proposal is the one to advance.

  • They identify the single proposal that has the lowest valid VRF hash among those received.
  • They then conduct a soft vote to confirm this proposal as the "winner" for the round.

Certification Vote

A final set of randomly-selected accounts, the certification committee, verifies the chosen block proposal. They confirm its validity by examining its transactions to ensure they adhere to protocol rules and are consistent with the network's state (for example, no double-spends).

Block Finalization

Once a threshold of committee accounts vote the block as certified, the block is added to the blockchain and the winning proposing account receives a staking reward. The next round then begins and the process repeats.
