General information about Casper
With its future-oriented architecture, Casper ensures that the platform continues to evolve in line with the growing needs of its users and is highly accessible to developers of all backgrounds. According to the White paper, the project is optimized to meet the needs of both enterprises and developers.
The founders of the project are:
- Mrinal Manohar;
- Medha Parlikar;
Casper's mission — to usher in a new era for Web3 as the demand for intuitive, interconnected services continues to grow across the board. The platform does this by solving the adoption trilemma: offering enterprise-grade security, scalability and decentralization within the same blockchain protocol.
Main advantages of the protocol
Cаsper — a unique use of blockchain technology and the Proof-of-Stake (PoS) consensus method. With a fully decentralized approach, the network is extremely versatile in terms of use cases.
The main advantages of Casper:
| Cаsper Correct-by-Construction (CBC) | The specification allows the rapid implementation of blockchain services at all levels of projects, based on PoS consensus. |
| Provision of services | In addition, CasperLabs exists to provide enterprise-level services and support to organizations, built on the Casper network, much like Red Hat supports organizations, built on the Linux ecosystem. |
The developers believe that with the team's unique experience, providing services to enterprise software organizations such as Adobe, Avalara and Google, CasperLabs is uniquely positioned to elevate Casper's role as the de facto blockchain for the growing number of enterprise organizations that want to work in Web3 environments, but need more specialists.
Security of Casper
The protocol relies on the PoS consensus mechanism for its network security. PoS relies on token staking to select node validators, allowing consensus to be extremely versatile and scalable. Unlike the Proof-of-Work (PoW) consensus, used on the Bitcoin blockchain, PoS does not require huge amounts of electricity or computing power to perform validations and add new blocks to the chain.
The blockchain platform also uses the Casper Correct-by-Construction (CBC) specification, which takes an updated approach to Byzantine Fault Tolerance (BFT) applications. Casper's enterprise grade architecture has passed several security audits.
