CBSA Exam - Question 35


Proof of Stake offers which advantage over Proof of Work?

Show Answer
Correct Answer: A

Proof of Stake offers the advantage of greater transaction speed over Proof of Work. Proof of Stake requires validators to hold and lock up a certain amount of cryptocurrency as collateral to validate transactions, which is a more efficient and quicker process compared to the energy-intensive and time-consuming mining process in Proof of Work.

D is correct Because the basis of proof of stake doesn't require any extra energy to prove trustworthiness, it is much more energy efficient. Unlike in proof of work, where specialized computing equipment like high-end graphics cards are needed, the proof of stake protocol can be run off of a laptop.
