Africa has a lot of potential for innovation and scaling businesses to the global market. The Africa Blockchain Center will be able to change the narrative by focusing on the lack of web3 blockchain development capacity in Africa. Jeff Mkungusi, the African Blockchain Centre CEO, believes this will change the life of every African youth in the market. #innovation #blockchain #web3

🌐 Web3 Security: Protecting the Future of Decentralized Systems 🔐 In the world of Web3, security is a top priority. With decentralized systems offering new levels of transparency and control, it's crucial that these networks are designed to withstand potential vulnerabilities. Web3 is pushing boundaries in secure, permissionless environments, but ensuring robust defense mechanisms across all platforms remains a key challenge. 🚀 #HederaHashgraph is a network designed with security at its core. Hedera leverages the Asynchronous Byzantine Fault Tolerance (ABFT) consensus algorithm, recognized as one of the most secure consensus mechanisms available. 🛡️ With fair ordering of transactions, resistance to DDoS attacks, and finality within seconds, Hedera ensures that both users and developers have a secure foundation for building the future of decentralized applications.

🌐 #DLTAfricaRegionalDeveloperProgramme Weekly Q&A Recap: Key Insights on Web3 and Hashgraph We wrapped up an exciting Q&A session discussing the future of decentralized technologies. Here are our top 5 Insights: 1. What is Web3? Web3 represents a new era of the internet where users own their data and interact directly without intermediaries. It’s all about decentralization, transparency, and enhanced user control, compared to the traditional Web2 model. 2. Security on the Hedera Network Hedera’s robust security comes from its unique consensus mechanism, which ensures that transactions are fast, fair, and secure. By using asynchronous Byzantine Fault Tolerance (aBFT), Hedera offers state-of-the-art security for decentralized applications. 3. Energy Efficiency Compared to traditional blockchain platforms, Hedera stands out for its remarkable energy efficiency. Its consensus algorithm requires significantly less computational power, making it a greener solution for the future of decentralized technology. 4. The Role of the Council The Hedera Governing Council, consisting of diverse global organizations, ensures the network’s governance. This structure fosters transparency, stability, and decentralization in decision-making, helping the network evolve responsibly. 5. What the Future Holds With advancements in scalability, security, and efficiency, the future of Hashgraph is incredibly promising. We’re seeing more real-world applications, from finance to healthcare, with the potential to revolutionize industries across the globe. Thank you to everyone who joined us! We’re excited to keep exploring the endless possibilities of DLT and Web3.

🌍 Did you know that the energy consumption of blockchain networks could be as high as the annual electricity use of entire countries? The environmental impact of blockchain technology largely depends on the consensus mechanism used, and two of the most common ones are Proof of Work (PoW) and Proof of Stake (PoS) - Proof of Work (PoW): In PoW, miners compete to solve complex mathematical puzzles to validate transactions and secure the network. The first to solve the puzzle adds a new block to the blockchain and is rewarded with cryptocurrency. However, this process requires immense computational power and, consequently, a vast amount of energy. The more competitive the mining, the higher the energy consumption, which has raised concerns about the environmental sustainability of PoW networks - Proof of Stake (PoS): Unlike PoW, PoS doesn’t rely on computational power to validate transactions. Instead, validators are chosen based on the number of coins they hold and are willing to "stake" as collateral. This method is significantly more energy-efficient because it doesn't require intense computational effort. As a result, PoS is seen as a greener alternative, addressing some of the environmental concerns associated with blockchain technology. By understanding these mechanisms, we can make informed decisions that balance the innovation of blockchain technology with sustainability Adanian Labs #web3 #blockchain #sustainabilty #ProofOfWork #ProofOfStake
