Blockchain CBSA Exam - Topic 5 Question 102 Discussion

Posted by Sharita on May 07, 2026 at 04:48 PM

What are two reasons that you would consider implementing a POW algo in your blockchain? (Select two.)

Suggested Answer: B, C

The main benefits are the anti-DoS attacks defense and low impact of stake on mining possibilities. Defense from DoS attacks. PoW imposes some limits on actions in the network. They need a lot of efforts to be executed. Efficient attack requires a lot of computational power and a lot of time to do the calculations. Therefore, the attack is possible but kind of useless since the costs are too high. Mining possibilities. It doesn't matter how much money you have in your wallet. What matters is to have large computational power to solve the puzzles and form new blocks. Thus, the holders of huge amounts of money are not in charge of making decisions for the entire network.

I like A and B. More power means more security!
TE

I’d pick A and C. Costly attacks are less likely.
VI

D seems off. PoW isn’t energy efficient at all!

C is good, but A feels stronger for me.

B makes sense too. Computational power is crucial.
JA
Janae 1 month ago
I agree, A is definitely a reason. Security is key!
AM

I think A and B are solid choices. High cost deters attacks.
BU

I still prefer D for energy concerns.
SA
Samira 2 months ago
A and C provide a balanced view on security.
RO
Rolland 2 months ago
C is misleading. Limits can be a problem.
JE

I feel like A and B cover the essentials.
MA

But isn’t energy efficiency important? D and E might be better.
MA

B is interesting too. Computational power is key.
CE
Cecily 3 months ago
I agree, A is strong. No limits means better security.
CL

I think A and C are solid choices. High cost deters attacks.
FR

Yeah, but the computational power is key for block formation!
MA
Maile 3 months ago
Wait, isn't PoW less energy efficient than POS?
CH

A and B are solid reasons for sure!
LE
Lettie 4 months ago
I disagree, PoW is super energy-intensive.
AI
Aide 4 months ago
PoW is great for security, high cost deters attacks!
IL

I feel like option B is misleading; it’s not just about computational power, right? There’s also the financial stake aspect that plays a role in other algorithms.
BU
Burma 6 months ago
I practiced a similar question where we discussed the efficiency of PoW versus PoS, but I can't quite remember if it was more energy efficient.
HA
Hailey 6 months ago
I think option C sounds right since PoW does have some limits, but I also recall that it’s really about the cost of attacks being high.
HA
Harrison 6 months ago
I remember studying that PoW can deter attacks because it requires significant computational resources, but I'm not sure if it imposes limits or not.
