!!! Overview
[{$pagename}] is the [Consensus] [Algorithm] used within the [Bitcoin] [Blockchain]
On the [Cryptography] mailing list, [Satoshi Nakamoto] claimed that the [Proof-of-Work] chain is a solution to the [Byzantine Generals Problem].
[Satoshi Nakamoto]’s proposed solution to the BGP has since come to be known as ‘[{$pagename}]’ which is the following summarized [protocol]:

* Appending a [block] to any history requires a proof that a certain amount of work – proportional in expectation to the total ‘capability’ of the network – has been completed.
