Unlocking the Heart of Blockchains: PoW vs PoS & More Dive into how Proof of Work (PoW) secures Bitcoin with energy-intensive mining, while Proof of Stake (PoS) rewards validators for holding coins. Emerging mechanisms like Delegated Proof of Stake (DPoS) and Proof of Authority (PoA) offer scalability and efficiency. Each plays a role in the crypto ecosystem's evolution. What's next?
