Network Validator Intro

VIA Labs' network validators are off-chain components that ensure secure and efficient cross-chain communication. They play a key role in verifying and relaying transactions between different blockchains.

What do they do?

  • Relay Transactions: VIA Labs validators verify transactions on one blockchain and relay them to another, acting as intermediaries.

  • Security: They ensure the accuracy and authenticity of transactions, maintaining the integrity of cross-chain operations.

  • Consensus Mechanism: Validators follow specific rules to agree on transactions and resolve disputes, typically using Proof of Liquidity (PoL) or Proof of Authority (PoA). In this case, both instances are used.

  • Decentralization: Multiple validators enhance network resilience by preventing any single party from controlling the system.
