Qtum

Qtum combines the security of Bitcoin's Unspent Transaction Output (UTXO) model with Ethereum-style smart contracts, using a Proof of Stake (PoS) consensus mechanism. This innovative hybrid approach supports decentralized applications (dApps) while ensuring secure and efficient transaction validation. Core Components: Proof of Stake (PoS) Qtum operates on a PoS consensus, enabling QTUM token holders to participate in block validation based on the number of tokens they stake. There is no minimum staking requirement, so all QTUM holders are eligible to participate in staking and earn rewards, promoting accessibility and decentralization. Hybrid UTXO and Smart Contract Structure UTXO Model: Qtum retains Bitcoin’s UTXO model, which enhances transaction security by providing discrete transaction outputs. Ethereum-Compatible Smart Contracts: Qtum integrates Ethereum’s smart contract capabilities, allowing for the creation and execution of decentralized applications. Account Abstraction Layer (AAL) The AAL serves as a bridge between the UTXO model and Ethereum-style smart contracts, enabling smart contracts to operate on top of the UTXO structure. This layer makes Qtum compatible with existing Ethereum smart contracts, allowing developers to deploy Ethereum dApps on Qtum’s blockchain while benefiting from UTXO’s security. Qtum’s consensus mechanism supports a hybrid blockchain architecture that provides enhanced security, flexibility for dApps, and accessibility for a wide range of users.

Qtum incentivizes stakers to secure the network by rewarding them with both block rewards and transaction fees. This structure supports decentralized participation and promotes consistent network performance. Incentive Mechanisms: Staking Rewards Block Rewards: Validators (stakers) are rewarded with QTUM tokens for producing new blocks, incentivizing them to maintain the security and stability of the network. Transaction Fees: Stakers also earn transaction fees from transactions within the blocks they validate. This dual-reward model aligns validator incentives with overall network activity and performance. Accessibility of Staking No Minimum Staking Requirement: Unlike many PoS blockchains, Qtum allows staking with any amount of QTUM, making staking accessible to a wide range of users, from small holders to larger stakeholders. This open approach promotes decentralization and broader community participation. Smart Contract Fees Gas-Like Fee Structure: Qtum charges fees for executing smart contracts, similar to Ethereum’s gas model. These fees are paid in QTUM and contribute to staking rewards, incentivizing validators to support dApps and smart contract functionality on the network. Applicable Fees: Transaction Fees Users pay transaction fees in QTUM for transferring funds and interacting with smart contracts. These fees are essential for network operations and are distributed to stakers, enhancing their reward structure. Smart Contract Execution Fees The gas-like fees applied to smart contract execution incentivize support for dApps on the network and provide an additional revenue stream for stakers, further aligning their participation with network growth.

For the calculation of energy consumptions, the so called 'bottom-up' approach is being used. The nodes are considered to be the central factor for the energy consumption of the network. These assumptions are made on the basis of empirical findings through the use of public information sites, open-source crawlers and crawlers developed in-house. The main determinants for estimating the hardware used within the network are the requirements for operating the client software. The energy consumption of the hardware devices was measured in certified test laboratories. When calculating the energy consumption, we used - if available - the Functionally Fungible Group Digital Token Identifier (FFG DTI) to determine all implementations of the asset of question in scope and we update the mappings regulary, based on data of the Digital Token Identifier Foundation. The information regarding the hardware used and the number of participants in the network is based on assumptions that are verified with best effort using empirical data. In general, participants are assumed to be largely economically rational. As a precautionary principle, we make assumptions on the conservative side when in doubt, i.e. making higher estimates for the adverse impacts.
