Centaurus Reviews

Centaurus Description

A cluster (or constellation) is a group of 5-19 auditor servers and one leading server (alpha). Each party confirms its identity publicly with a Stellar ed25519 publickey. It is important to send public keys to clients with client software so that they can be signed directly on the client's side. Client funds are stored in one Stellar account (vault), which is protected by M-ofN multi-sig. N is the total number independent servers that make up a constellation and M is the majority vote (>50%) plus 1. Any withdrawal operation must have the majority of signatures from all quorum participants. This is guaranteed by the underlying Stellar ledger. Trades and payments with instant confirmation and finality of 5 seconds.
