#6
Solana is a blockchain designed to support scalable decentralized applications (gapps). One of the key distinguishing features of Solana is its Proof of Stake (PoS) consensus system, which is backed by Tower Consensus. This is a variant of the system known as Practical Byzantine Fault Tolerance (PBFT), it allows distributed networks to reach consensus despite attacks from malicious nodes.

Censorship resistance and decentralization are one of the fundamental promises of blockchain. The main goal here is for a network to be decentralized enough to be censorship-resistant. However, itβs often challenging to quantify at what point that happens.
The obvious problem is that most validators within PoS networks are typically known entities/individuals. Therefore, validators become incentivized to promote themselves to attract more delegators to increase their revenue.
Solana is working on several key initiatives to help tackle this problem:
Stake-o-Matic: forums.solana.com/t/stake-o-matic-delegation-matching-program/790/
Yield Throttling: forums.solana.com/t/validator-yield-throttling-proposal-discussion/855
