- Zilliqa 2.0 uses Proof-of-Stake based on Pipelined Fast-Hotstuff as a consensus algorithm. Mining is no longer necessary.

- Blocks are not finalized instantly. A block and its ancestors become finalized if a child block is proposed in the next view, and the block has a grandchild in any subsequent view. In the common case, finalization requires two block confirmations.

- There are no DS epochs, no long delay at TX block 99, and the transaction pool is no longer cleared at the start of an epoch.
