Byzantine fault tolerance (BFT) is one of the fundamental problems in cryptocurrency and blockchain systems. It requires overall system agreement on a single data value in the presence of a number of arbitrary faulty processes, which includes malicious fraud. Tendermint is a BFT state machine replication engine that lets you implement your own blockchain systems. The consensus engine, Tendermint Core, takes over the peer-to-peer communication and consensus part, you just need to implement the rest of the application (e.g., construct transaction and verify cryptographic signature) and communicate with Tendermint Core through ABCI. Some blockchain implementations have already chosen Tendermint as their consensus engine.

Thoughtworks acknowledges the Traditional Owners of the land where we work and live, and their continued connection to Country. We pay our respects to Elders past and present. Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples were the world's first scientists, technologists, engineers and mathematicians. We celebrate the stories, culture and traditions of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Elders of all communities who also work and live on this land. 

 

As a company, we invite Thoughtworkers to be actively engaged in advancing reconciliation and strengthen their solidarity with the First Peoples of Australia. Since 2019, we have been working with Reconciliation Australia to formalize our commitment and take meaningful action to advance reconciliation. We invite you to review our Reconciliation Action Plan.
