Meet the TTC Representative Candidates
41 candidates from 28 cities and 20 countries
Note: This article has been updated on April 14, 2019.
The prelim election to elect TTC Representatives begins on April 11th at 12:00 (UTC+8).
TTC main network adopted the Multi-tier BFT-DPoS as its consensus algorithm. According to this consensus, TTC holders must elect Representatives — also known as ‘Block Producers (BP)’ — who perform two major roles for the entire network:
(1) record and sync information into the TTC blockchain, and
(2) improve the consensus through proposals and public votes.
The Representatives will have significant control and influence on how the network runs, hence, it is important to elect the right Representatives who will work for the benefit of the entire ecosystem.
