Proof of Space-Time is a consensus mechanism that combines storage and time in validating transactions and securing a network. Unlike traditional methods that rely heavily on computational power, this approach utilizes disk space as a resource.In this framework, participants, known as storage providers, allocate their unused disk space to store data. They must prove that they have maintained this storage over a specific duration, ensuring that they remain active members of the network. This time commitment adds an element of reliability and security.By requiring both space and time, this method promotes energy efficiency compared to energy-intensive proof-of-work systems. It encourages users to contribute storage rather than processing power, making it more accessible for individuals with limited computational resources.Overall, Proof of Space-Time aims to create a decentralized network that is secure, energy-efficient, and encourages participation from a broader range of users while rewarding them for their contributions.
