Gossip Protocol Replication, Multi-Signatures, and M-of-N Consensus Explained

This article explains how distributed systems maintain trust and consistency using gossip-based replication, partial and multi-signature proofs, and M-of-N network connections. The gossip protocol ensures efficient data sharing among peers without redundancy. Proof of correctness validates signatures mathematically, while multi-signatures aggregate trust across nodes. Finally, M-of-N networking reduces overhead while preserving consensus guarantees. Together, these mechanisms form the backbone of scalable, resilient, and secure decentralized systems.
