Stanford University professor David Tse has pioneered a way to use Bitcoin to secure proof-of-stake blockchains.
The Bitcoin network’s proof-of-work consensus mechanism could become a useful means of securing a variety of proof-of-stake (PoS) smart contract blockchain protocols, thanks to efforts from a Stanford University professor.
David Tse and his research team are driving the use of the preeminent cryptocurrency to provide added security to PoS networks.
