Proof-of-Stake Voting*

At the heart of TomoChain, the Proof-of-Stake Voting consensus enables TomoChain as an EVM-compatible and scalable public blockchain, on which every Ethereum smart contract can be effectively run with almost instant transaction confirmation.

PoSV features its Masternode architecture in which coin-holders deposit 50k $TOMO to become a masternode candidate and receive votes from other coin-holders. The most voted masternodes are selected as masternodes for block creation within a period, called epoch. Each masternode takes its block creation in a round-robin manner every 2-second and follows the double validation technique for security reinforcement. A block is finalised if it is signed off by 3/4 masternodes. At the end of each epoch, the masternodes that have signed finalised blocks are rewarded.

TPS**

Massive acceleration of blockchain performance is one of the most important key features of TomoChain. With our proposed PoSV consensus protocol, TomoChain can reach at least 2k TPS while still enhancing security through Double Validation. With current 2-second block-time and based on current network bandwidth, a transaction in TomoChain can be confirmed within almost 4-second, which significantly improves user experiences, thus widens blockchain’s adoption into industry. Furthermore, TPS will be dramatically higher once our sharding solution is enabled.

Double Validation***

Double validation provides an additional trustless validation layer for security enhancement through a provable uniform distribution decentralized randomization. Specifically, when a block is created by a masternode, it must be verified by another masternode that is randomly selected among the set of masternodes before being added to the blockchain. Double validation strengthens Tomochain’s security, reduces fork and nothing-at-stake attacks, and makes TomoChain unique among other Proof-of-Stake-based blockchains.
