 ## Consensus on IOTA
 
-IOTA uses a delegated proof-of-stake (DPoS) consensus mechanism to validate on-chain transaction blocks. [Validators](iota-architecture/validator-committee.mdx) must secure a certain amount of IOTA tokens to participate in the network, incentivizing honest behavior and enhancing security. This approach ensures an efficient and secure blockchain while avoiding the high energy demands of Proof-of-Work (PoW) systems, which rely on computationally intensive mining.
+IOTA uses a [delegated proof-of-stake (DPoS)](https://www.ledger.com/academy/what-is-delegated-proof-of-stake-dpos) consensus mechanism to validate on-chain transaction blocks. [Validators](iota-architecture/validator-committee.mdx) must secure a certain amount of IOTA tokens to participate in the network, where they actively run the [Mysticeti](https://arxiv.org/pdf/2310.14821) protocol to finalize transactions. This approach incentivizes honest behavior, enhances security, and ensures an efficient and scalable blockchain while avoiding the high energy demands of Proof-of-Work (PoW) systems, which rely on computationally intensive mining.
