FAQ

Algorand (ALGO) is a distributedledgerthat aims to remove the technical barriers in the blockchain and has a permissionless consensus mechanism

According to the Algorand whitepaper, the current blockchain faces the main challenges of the “blockchain trilemma”: security, scalability, and decentralization.

Algorand relies on randomness to solve the blockchain trilemma and uses the pure proof-of-stake (PPoS) algorithm built on a Byzantine agreement. A Byzantine agreement is a protocol for communication that allows the distributed system users to reach a consensus in the presence of malicious actors. PPoS helps achieve greater scalability without compromising the decentralization and security of the network while preventing a potential 51% attack

ALGO is the native utility token of the Algorand network. The token is used to secure the consensus used to build each block on the platform and pay for every transaction. The platform aims to use the token to govern the growth of the Algorand ecosystem and as governance rewards for those who commit to voting as part of governing.
