Tendermint Security

● Identity - validators can be publicly identified

● BFT - requires a significant portion to collude & attack

● Accountability - identify & punish those that attack the network

Tendermint Applications

Generalized application interface for apps in any language

→ Blockchain Gateway Interface (BCGI)

Two implementations:

- Tendermint Socket Protocol (TMSP)

- GRPC (HTTP2+Protobuf)
