Introduction to Hedera Hashgraph
Hedera Hashgraph is a distributed ledger technology that provides a fast, secure, and fair way to achieve consensus. Unlike traditional blockchains, it uses the gossip protocol and virtual voting for faster transaction processing.
Key Features
- High throughput: Supports thousands of transactions per second.
- Fair ordering: Uses timestamping instead of miner prioritization.
- Low fees: Predictable and cost-efficient transactions.
- Enterprise-grade security: Asynchronous Byzantine Fault Tolerance (aBFT).
Hedera is a powerful alternative to blockchain for businesses and developers looking for scalability and security.
