Algorand is a decentralised blockchain platform designed for fast, secure, and scalable transactions, enabling the development of decentralised applications (dApps). It uses an energy-efficient Pure Proof of Stake (PPoS) consensus mechanism to provide high throughput and low transaction fees.
Algorand operates using its unique Pure Proof of Stake consensus, which allows any token holder to participate in securing the network without requiring expensive mining equipment. The platform employs cryptographic sortition to randomly select validators, ensuring fairness, security, and decentralisation. It supports smart contracts and tokenisation through Algorand Smart Contracts (ASC1), offering developers a robust toolkit for dApp creation.
Founded in 2017 by Turing Award-winning cryptographer Silvio Micali, Algorand was developed to solve the scalability, security, and decentralisation challenges of earlier blockchain platforms. Its mainnet launched in June 2019, followed by innovations like Algorand Standard Assets (ASA) for tokenisation, establishing its presence as a versatile blockchain solution.
