3.Consensus Mechanism: WNC 2.0
3.1 Overview
OTalkChain adopts the Weighted Node Consensus (WNC 2.0) mechanism, which dynamically selects the block-producing nodes by evaluating the node weights across multiple dimensions.
3.2 Dynamic Weight Algorithm
The node reputation scoring system uses a multi-dimensional evaluation model:
W = α·Σ(Gas_i^τ) + β·Stake^γ + δ·Uptime
Where:
τ = 0.85 (Time decay factor)
γ = 1.2 (Staking non-linear amplification coefficient)
δ = Dynamic adjustment parameter (based on network health)
The algorithm comprehensively considers the historical Gas amount processed by the node, the number of staked tokens, and the node's online stability, achieving a fairer and more efficient node selection process.
3.3 Block Producer Election
An improved VDF (Verifiable Delay Function) is used for random selection to resist Sybil attacks:
1.The top 10 highest-weighted nodes enter the candidate pool.
2.VDF generates a verifiable random number.
3.The block production rights are allocated based on the probability density function.
3.4 Fault Tolerance Mechanism
When a block producer node encounters a failure, the system will:
1.Quickly identify the node failure through a heartbeat detection mechanism.
2.Automatically select the next weighted node from the candidate pool to take over.
3.The Byzantine fault tolerance algorithm is applied to ensure that the system can still function normally even if up to 1/3 of the nodes are malicious.
4.Transaction Processing Mechanism
4.1 Deterministic Gas Prediction
OTalkChain implements the industry's first zero-error Gas estimation system:
Prediction Process:
1.Create a MongoDB transaction snapshot.
2.Perform bytecode-level contract simulation.
3.Apply an RL-based prediction model.
4.Return the precise Gas cost (±3%).
This method ensures the accuracy of Gas estimation, significantly reducing transaction costs and resource waste for users.
4.2 Transaction Lifecycle
1.The user submits a transaction to the network.
2.The transaction enters the priority memory pool awaiting processing.
3.A block producer node selects the transaction and performs validation.
4.The transaction is executed, and the state is updated.
5.The transaction is packaged into a block and broadcast to the network.
6.Other nodes validate the block and reach consensus.
7.The block is confirmed and permanently stored (average confirmation time < 1 second).
4.3 Transaction Consistency Assurance
To ensure data consistency, OTalkChain utilizes MongoDB's transaction features:
1.Multiple transactions are processed as a single atomic operation.
2.All transactions either succeed or fail as a whole.
3.The system state remains consistent at all times.
4.Supports cross-shard transactions, ensuring data consistency during large-scale deployments.
5.Smart Contracts
5.1 JavaScript Contract Environment
OTalkChain uses JavaScript as the smart contract language, offering the following advantages:
· Low development threshold, leveraging existing JavaScript developer resources (reducing learning costs by over 70%).
· Seamless integration with frontend development, enabling true full-stack blockchain development.
· Dynamic type system providing a more flexible development experience.
5.2 Deterministic Execution Sandbox
Contracts are executed in a secure sandbox environment with the following features:
· Resource usage restrictions to prevent infinite loop attacks.
· Deterministic timestamps and random number generation.

6.2 Bi-directional Asset Bridge
OTalkChain provides a secure and efficient bi-directional asset bridging mechanism:
Asset Transfer Process:
· The user transfers assets to the cross-chain contract address on the Ethereum network.
· OTalkChain automatically mints the corresponding mapped assets on its network.
· The user receives the mapped assets on OTalkChain (average completion time < 5 minutes).
Asset Withdrawal Process:
· The user burns the assets on OTalkChain.
· The Ethereum smart contract is triggered to release the original assets.
· The user receives the assets on the Ethereum network.
6.3 Cross-Chain Security Assurance
To ensure the security of cross-chain assets, ViteChain implements a multi-layered security mechanism:
· Multi-signature

The native token of OTalkChain (OTC) is used for:
· Paying transaction fees
· Obtaining node weight
· Participating in governance voting
· Incentivizing network participants
· Cross-chain operation fees
7.2 Fee Mechanism
Transaction fees are calculated based on precise Gas consumption:
· Gas prices are determined by market supply and demand. When the token price increases, Gas fees do not rise, ensuring stable user costs and mitigating the impact of token price fluctuations on transaction fees.
· Fee distribution: 50% goes to the block producer node, and 50% goes to the broadcasting node.
7.3 Multi-Layer Incentive Mechanism
To promote the healthy development of the network, OTalkChain has designed a multi-tier incentive mechanism:
· Block Production Rewards: Nodes with higher weight have more opportunities to receive block production rewards.
· Broadcasting Rewards: Public nodes set up by participants can earn broadcasting rewards.
· Developer Rewards: Developers contributing valuable contracts to the ecosystem can receive rewards.
· Ecosystem Development Rewards: Contributors who support application development and user acquisition can earn rewards.
