The DLT Seminar Series, supported by Exponential Science and organised by the UK Centre for Blockchain Technologies, continued with its second session led by Vito Tumas, Software Engineer at Ripple and PhD researcher at the University of Luxembourg.
Titled ‘Distributed Ledger Technology through the Lens of Distributed Systems,’ the seminar examined blockchain architecture from a distributed systems perspective. Tumas provided a rigorous analysis of how network structure, communication, and coordination affect the resilience and efficiency of distributed ledgers. He addressed the technical challenges of peer discovery, message propagation, and consensus formation in large-scale networks such as the XRP Ledger.
The discussion offered a detailed view of the trade-offs between decentralisation, scalability, and fault tolerance, highlighting the complex system design choices that underpin blockchain performance.
The DLT Seminar Series brings together industry experts and academic researchers to share deep technical insights into distributed ledger technologies and their real-world applications across sectors.
