Consensus Mechanism | Babylon is a Cosmos SDK-based blockchain that utilizes a Tendermint-style Byzantine Fault Tolerant (BFT) Proof-of-Stake consensus mechanism. Validators are selected based on the amount of BABY tokens staked, and are responsible for proposing and validating new blocks in a round-robin process. Finality is achieved after a fixed number of confirmations, and slashing conditions are in place to penalize faulty or malicious validator behavior. |
Incentive Mechanisms and Applicable Fees | Babylon uses the native BABY token to incentivize network participation and governance. Validators earn rewards for securing the network by validating transactions and producing blocks, with rewards consisting of transaction fees and newly minted tokens. |
