Certified Blockchain Solutions Architect (CBSA) — Question 8

You currently on a conference call with an executive from a too big to fail bank. They are validating that they want to use Quorum or another enterprise blockchain.
They specifically want to know what type of consensus algo it uses and what industry for the Quorum blockchain targets.

Answer options

• A. BFT, cross industry
• B. POS, Financial only
• C. Majority voting, Financial only
• D. Majority voting, cross industry
• E. POW, cross industry

Correct answer: D

Explanation

The correct answer is D because Quorum utilizes a Majority Voting consensus algorithm and is designed to serve multiple industries, not just financial services. Options A, B, and E incorrectly describe the consensus mechanism or limit the target industry. Option C misidentifies the target industry as solely financial.
