!!! Overview [{$pagename}] is proposed for replicated state machines with guaranteed [Byzantine Fault Tolerance]. [{$pagename}] achieves fairness, in the sense that it is difficult for an [attacker] to manipulate which of two transactions will be chosen to be first in the [consensus] order. [{$pagename}] has complete asynchrony, no leaders, no round robin, no proof-ofwork, eventual [consensus] with probability one, and high speed in the absence of faults. [{$pagename}] is based on a [gossip protocol], in which the participants don’t just gossip about transactions. They gossip about gossip. They jointly build a [hashgraph] reflecting all of the gossip events. This allows [Byzantine agreement|Byzantine Fault Tolerance] to be achieved through virtual voting. [Alice] does not send [Bob] a vote over the Internet. Instead, [Bob] calculates what vote [Alice] would have sent, based on his knowledge of what [Alice] knows. This yields fair [Byzantine agreement|Byzantine Fault Tolerance] on a total order for all transactions, with very little communication overhead beyond the transactions themselves. !!
