Proof of Contribution Explained

Proof of Contribution (PoC) is our innovative consensus mechanism that rewards all participants in the content ecosystem based on their measurable contributions to the network's growth and value.

Unlike traditional Proof of Work (energy-intensive mining) or Proof of Stake (favoring those with capital), PoC democratizes blockchain participation by recognizing and rewarding various forms of contribution—from content creation to community engagement.

"Proof of Contribution represents the next evolution in blockchain consensus—one that aligns incentives across the entire ecosystem and rewards real-world value creation."

— Diamondz Shadow Whitepaper
