Algorand is a new blockchain built on a Permissionless, pure proof of stake, decentralized agreement protocol, where anyone can participate and requires minimal computational power. This protocol finalizes transactions very quickly and offers true decentralization. This session covers the basics of how the Algorand protocol works, cover the architecture overview, managing the node with the command line tools, and an overview of how developers can integrate using the SDKs to build Layer 2 applications.

Public blockchains are decentralized and no one has control over the network and they are secure in that the data cannot be changed once validated on the blockchain. Permissioned networks place restrictions on who is allowed to participate in the network and in what transactions. 13

Phase 1 • A single token is randomly selected, and its owner is the user who proposes the next block. Phase 2 • A number tokens are selected among all tokens currently in the system. The owners of these tokens are selected to be part of a phase-2 ‘committee,’ which approves the block proposed by the first user. 21
