The fortress is surrounded by multiple battalions, each lead by a general.<\/p>\n<p>If all battalions launch a\u00a0<strong>coordinated attack<\/strong>, we can guarantee a <strong>victory<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>However, if a single battalion <strong>doesn&#8217;t participate<\/strong>, the army will suffer a\u00a0<strong>defeat<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>For the sake of simplicity, let&#8217;s focus on just two generals trying to coordinate the attack, General A and General B.<\/p>\n<p><strong>The goal is to reach consensus whether to attack tonight or not.<\/strong><\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Possible_Scenarios\"><\/span>Possible Scenarios<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>General A is ready to attack and sends a messenger to inform General B.<\/p>\n<p>Here are a few of the scenarios that can happen after General A sends the message:<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li>The messenger is captured on the way and the message never reaches General B. General A will never know if General B got the message or not.<\/li>\n<li>The message is delivered and General B sends a confirmation. The messenger is captured on the way back and the confirmation never reaches General A.<\/li>\n<li>If the messenger is captured in any direction, a fake message can be delivered to General A, making him appear by himself.<\/li>\n<li>At any moment in time, the enemy can send a fake message to General B, making him appear by himself.<\/li>\n<li>This also raises the question of how any of the generals can be sure that the message they received hasn&#8217;t been tampered with.<\/li>\n<li>One of the generals cooperates with the enemy and tries to lure the other one to appear alone.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>These are just handful of scenarios from the top of my head, but we see how complex it can be to guarantee a consensus of parties that aren&#8217;t close to each other. Now extend the same thing to a larger network of participants &#8211; hundreds or thousands of armies.<\/p>\n<p>You can already see the analogy of the actual problem &#8211; <strong>a group of components having to agree on the state of the system, while information can get intercepted, lost, or forged during transmission<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"How_Bitcoin_solves_the_Byzantine_generals_problem\"><\/span>How Bitcoin solves the Byzantine generals problem?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Bitcoin implements a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.coinbase.com\/learn\/crypto-basics\/what-is-proof-of-work-or-proof-of-stake\">Proof-of-Work<\/a> consensus mechanism.<\/p>\n<p>In PoW systems, each &#8220;miner&#8221; has a financial incentive to be the fastest one to guess the solution to a certain problem.<\/p>\n<p>This solution is hard to find, but easy to verify.<\/p>\n<p>In a way, this is similar to a Sudoku puzzle &#8211; it might take someone 10 minutes to solve one, but just a few seconds to verify that a solution is correct. Once a miner broadcasts his solution, the rest of the network can easily verify it.<\/p>\n<p>All confirmed transactions are part of blocks in a <strong>distributed ledger <\/strong>and every miner in the Bitcoin network must agree with its state.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"The_Distributed_Ledger\"><\/span>The Distributed Ledger<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>When a new unverified transaction appears, it may originate from an honest or a dishonest participant.<\/p>\n<p>A transaction that&#8217;s not genuine might mean an attempt of sending money that&#8217;s not in possession, an attempt to magically add money to a certain address, etc.<\/p>\n<p>Here comes the interesting part.<\/p>\n<p>A transaction will end up in the distributed ledger <strong>only if\u00a0<\/strong><strong>the majority of the network agrees with its authenticity<\/strong>. This means that if a bad actor tries to include a fake transaction, the rest of the network will disagree and disregard it.<\/p>\n<p>Once there&#8217;s a consensus of which transactions are valid, every node updates their copy of the ledger.<\/p>\n<p><strong>This update is permanent.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Every next action will be based on the current state of the distributed ledger.<\/p>\n<p><strong>This guarantees that as long as at least 51% of the miners are honest, all transactions will be genuine.\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Here&#8217;s a visual representation of why modifying the blockchain by a minority of dishonest miners is <del>impossible<\/del> highly improbable:<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-1874 aligncenter\" src=\"http:\/\/localhost\/dpetkovski\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/bitcoin-cheat.png\" alt=\"byzantine generals problem\" width=\"550\" height=\"633\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Remember that the mining process is not only time intensive, but also energy intensive &#8211; see <a href=\"https:\/\/bitinfocharts.com\/comparison\/bitcoin-hashrate.html\">Bitcoin&#8217;s hashrate<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>In other words: an attempt to cheat this system is a waste of money.
