Aleph Zero is a new blockchain ecosystem based on a novel consensus protocol
it uses a Directed Acyclic Graph (DAG) architecture. Here, the transactions in blocks aren’t connected to others linearly, rather than they are flowing in one direction but with multiple branches.
his allows Aleph Zero to reach speeds that are beyond the reach of traditional blockchains.
Another Aleph Zero’s quality is the current state-of-the-art aBFT, meaning that our consensus protocol is Byzantine Fault Tolerant (malicious nodes don’t affect the network) but apart from other BFT protocols, it is asynchronous.
Introducing asynchronicity to BFT protocol is a big step forward as it provides maximum theoretical security for both open source and enterprise user
Aleph Zero is a permissionless DAG
