Enhancing Blockchain Security and Efficiency through FPGA-Based Consensus Mechanisms and Post-Quantum Cryptography

Abstract

Introduction: Blockchain technology has revolutionized data management and transaction recording, extending its application beyond cryptocurrencies to various sectors, including Central Bank Digital Currencies (CBDCs) Method: This distributed ledger technology offers a transparent, immutable, and secure transaction platform, reducing the risk of data tampering and increasing resistance to attacks. However, challenges such as performance, scalability, and security continue to exist; these challenges are particularly concerning consensus mechanisms like Proof of Work (PoW). Field-Programmable Gate Arrays (FPGAs) present a promising solution to enhance the efficiency and security of blockchain consensus mechanisms. Result: This study explores the implementation of blockchain in embedded systems using FPGAs and discusses the post-quantum cryptographic algorithms to ensure long-term protection. Conclusion: The research highlights the potential of FPGA-based implementations to revolutionize blockchain applications, emphasizing the need for continuous adaptation and vigilance to address evolving security threats, particularly those posed by quantum computing.
