The Internet Scale Blockchain

• Elrond uses what it calls a secure proof-of-stake consensus algorithm in which nodes must stake their EGLD tokens to participate in the validation process, and each validator is assigned a rating score based on past activity.
• Validators are randomly selected in a way that can be neither predicted nor modified based on the previous round of validations. 
• Nodes communicate among one another using modified Boneh-Lynn-Shacham, or BLS, multi-signatures for strong cryptographic protection.

Elrond employs random sampling of validators and block proposer every round from the shard nodes.

This way the time the validators are exposed is limited to one round (5 seconds), so only 1 Globally Predictable, which increases the security of Elrond against bribing and DDoS compared to Ethereum.

According to its economics paper, it seeks to build up its ecosystem and establish EGLD as a store-of-value asset.

According to CoinMarketCap, the Elrond economic model has a limited supply that starts at 20,000,000 EGLD, with new tokens minted to reward network validators. 

The maximum supply can never exceed 31,415,926 EGLD, but this number will decrease as more transactions are processed.

EGLD can be purchased on cryptocurrency exchanges such as:

• Binance
• OKEx
• Bitfinex
• crypto.com
• AscendEX
• gate.io
