Operational Logic of Nodes

• Transaction Validation

  • Nodes continuously monitor the network for new transactions.

  • Validator nodes verify the correctness of transactions, ensuring they meet all protocol rules (e.g., signatures, balances, and input-output integrity).

  • Restaking validators prioritize transactions based on risk and value, applying dynamic collateral requirements for high-value operations.

• Block Production and Propagation

  • Validator nodes compete to produce a block using Akashic’s Proof-of-Work (PoW) consensus mechanism.

  • The produced block is broadcast across the network to all full nodes for validation and synchronization.

• Consensus Mechanism

  • Validator nodes reach consensus through the PoW process combined with additional validation through restaking.

  • Nodes reject blocks that fail to meet protocol standards or show evidence of tampering, ensuring network reliability.

• Cross-chain Interactions

  • Relay nodes coordinate with other blockchains via the CMq protocol to transfer data or assets.

  • Validator nodes confirm the integrity of incoming and outgoing cross-chain transactions, maintaining trust in cross-chain operations.

• Node Synchronization

  • Full nodes ensure that the blockchain ledger remains synchronized across all participants. Any discrepancies are flagged and resolved automatically through Akashic’s validation framework.

• Fault Tolerance and Redundancy

  • Akashic nodes operate with built-in fault tolerance mechanisms, ensuring that the network remains operational even if some nodes fail or go offline.
