As you know, digital currencies and blockchain technology are in great need of a general consensus of their community, since they imply the absence of regulatory of central bodies. Changes in the distributed registry of blockchain networks should be agreed upon by the majority of people in this community. In order to achieve such a consensus blockchains most often use algorithms Proof of Work or Proof of Stake. In general, both algorithms are designed to show that some work has been done to verify a particular transaction, and that it is not fake.
