The blockchain has a hybrid consensus mechanism, with elements of Proof-of-Existence (PoE), Proof-of-Process (PoP), and Proof-of-Audit (PoA).
| The Lambda blockchain infrastructure will enable scalable data storage for DApps. Lambda Chain will also enable cross-chain data management. The network is currently powered by the Ethereum-based LAMB token.
