Prova for RMG® is a permissioned blockchain protocol. Many of the blockchain consortiums that build private blockchains for financial institutions and other enterprises follow this model.
A permissioned blockchain restricts the actors who can contribute to the consensus of the system state. In a permissioned blockchain, only a restricted set of users have the rights to validate the block transactions.
Permissioned blockchains do not have to use the computing power based mining to reach a consensus, as all the actors are known.
Permissioned blockchains work to a Proof of Stake model (PoS) for reaching consensus instead. Proof of stake mining asks users to prove ownership of a certain amount of currency (their stake in the currency). Instead of buying computers and electricity for mining in a Proof of Work system, a PoS system uses the capital to acquire assets that allow you to validate transactions.Gran says
