RESEARCH ON ALGORITHMS FOR MANAGING COMPETITIVE ACCESS AND AVOIDING COLLISIONS IN BLOCKCHAIN NETWORKS

The paper presents a systematic analysis of blockchain technology and its application features, examining the internal logic (encryption, consensus). The research focuses on competitive access and collision avoidance in the operation of blockchain technology. These aspects significantly influence its performance, scalability, and reliability, which are critical factors for the successful adoption of this technology in various fields. The study addresses one of the main issues of blockchain—ensuring data integrity, which requires the use of efficient encryption algorithms. These algorithms must provide high cryptographic security of information within the network, support digital signature implementation, and ensure transaction security. Additionally, the paper explores specialized algorithms for managing competitive access and avoiding collisions in blockchain networks, contributing to their operational efficiency.
