Block Formation

Valid transactions are grouped into blocks by nodes responsible for creating new blocks (e.g., miners in PoW or validators in PoS).

Transaction Initiation

When a transaction is initiated, it is broadcast to all nodes in the network.

Block Broadcasting

The new block is broadcast to the entire network, and each node updates its copy of the blockchain.

Validation

Each node independently verifies the transaction’s validity according to the network’s consensus rules.

Broadcasting

Once validated, the transaction is propagated to other nodes, ensuring that all nodes have the latest information.
