How Does It Function?

We've all heard of Bitcoin mining. Mining, on the other hand, is a time-consuming and energy-intensive process. Each BTC transaction validation consumes more than 1,400kWh when using the proof-of-work (PoW) mining process. In comparison, an entire household would use approximately 29kWh per day. As a result, XCH aims to provide the same level of efficiency while using less energy.

Chia Network is a Layer 1 blockchain that uses a space-and-time consensus algorithm (PoST). This is an efficient transaction verification alternative to traditional PoW. Efficient transaction verification, also known as "Farming," allocates free computer storage space to "Plot." So, what are the distinctions? Bitcoin is based on the proof-of-work algorithm. Miners use their computer processing power to solve complex mathematical equations in order to obtain BTC. This necessitates a high-performance rig and a massive amount of energy.

Chia Network, on the other hand, uses a proof-of-space-and-time consensus. PoST stores data in unused storage space on a computer. This method eliminates the need for high-performance hardware and a lot of power. It also allows network participants to demonstrate how long they have been storing data. Chialisp is another intriguing feature of Chia Network.

Chialisp is their proprietary smart contract language, which powers the ChisLisp Virtual Machine (CVM). It is also the Ethereum Virtual Machine's counterpart (EVM). To avoid duplicate spending on its blockchain, it uses a coin set model. Furthermore, Chia Network emphasized that its approach differs from that of Ethereum. In comparison, Chia Network provides greater security, lowers MEV, and has fully auditable code.
