'Proof of War' Installation exhibition view
The sub-title of the project reads as Proof of War, which is a word play on the Proof of Work (PoW) which is a common algorithmic consensus principle across various blockchains and a form of cryptographic proof in which one party proves to others that a certain amount of a specific computational effort has been expended. Proof of Work and its less energy-hungry sibling Proof of Stake are code-based models of motivation, incentive, punishment, consensus and order through which the system and arguably value are meant to scale.
