Algorand's cryptographic sortition
blog
There are several cryptocurrencies that are doing really interesting things, Algorand is one of them. Their breakthrough was to make a leader-based BFT algorithm work in a permissionless setting (and I believe they are the first ones who managed to do this). At the center of their system lies a cryptography sortition algorithm. It’s quite interesting, so I made a video to explain it!
PS: I’ve been doing these videos for a while, and I still don’t have a cool intro, so if you want to make me a cool intro please do :D
