Editorial reading note
The MIT OCW index for Blockchain and Money (Fall 2018) lists Session 4: Blockchain Basics and Consensus.
The joint title is a lead for examining how consensus relates to blockchain basics. Record data, participant judgments and shared rules separately while watching, then examine their connection. We have not watched the session and infer no particular algorithm comparison or superior design.
Reading level: metadata_only; only the official course index was checked. The video and captions were not reviewed, and individual presenters were not verified. 2018 is the course year; video publication date and original language remain unknown.
