What is Hereda Hashgraph?
The hashgraph data structure and consensus algorithm provides a new platform for distributed consensus. This introduction gives an overview how hashgraph works, and of some of its properties.
The goal of a distributed consensus algorithm is to allow a community of users to come to an agreement on the order in which some of them generated transactions, when no single member is trusted by everyone. In this way, it is a system for generating trust, when individuals do not already trust each other. Hashgraph achieves this in a fundamentally new way.
