# Dynamic Proof of Stake
|
|
|
|
|
|
+## Overview
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+DarkFi's proof-of-stake blockchain is based on Streamlet, a simplified
|
|
|
+proof-of-stake consensus. The current implementation is highly primitive,
|
|
|
+for example there is currently no concept of a consensus token. The
|
|
|
+blockchain is at the devnet phase, meaning it is running on a local
|
|
|
+testnet among the DarkFi community.
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+In the future, DarkFi plans to upgrade its consensus to a modified verion
|
|
|
+of Ouroboros. To accomodate this transition it has designed its data
|
|
|
+structures to be easy to upgrade.
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+Below is a specification of how DarkFi's blockchain achieves consensus.
