In our new video, we explore "Consensus Algorithms" in cryptocurrencies. 😊🔍 We'll discover two popular algorithms: "Proof of Work" and "Proof of Stake". If you're not familiar with "mining" and "staking" in cryptocurrencies yet, check out our previous videos! 👆

Consensus Algorithms are the heart of cryptocurrencies, ensuring blockchain security. In a centralized setup, a single entity has control, but in decentralized cryptocurrencies, no one holds power except the technology! 🌐✨

Let's start with "Proof of Work," which powers Bitcoin. Here, "miners" solve complex puzzles and compete to add new blocks to the chain. A cryptocurrency reward is at stake! 💼💰 But it requires a lot of electrical power.

Moving on to "Proof of Stake," favored by Ethereum. Here, "validators" are chosen to create blocks based on the coins they stake. Less energy consumption and more long-term commitment! 🌿💎
