# Proof of Devotion Similar to POI, the PoD selects the accounts with high influence. All accounts are ranked according to their liquidity and propagation (Nebulas Rank). #### Algorithm * Top-ranked accounts are selected * Chosen accounts pay deposit and are qualified as the blocks Validators (Validators Set is dynamic, changes in Set may occur after Epoch change.) * Algorithm pseudo-randomly chooses block Proposer * After a new block is proposed, Validators Set (each Validator is charged a deposit) participate in a round of BFT-Style voting to verify block (1. Prepare stage -> 2. Commit Stage. Validators should have > 2/3 of total deposits to validate Block) * Block is added. Block rewards : each Validator rewarded with 1 NAS. #### Used in * Nebula * [whitepaper](https://nebulas.io/docs/NebulasTechnicalWhitepaper.pdf) * [Github](https://github.com/nebulasio/wiki/wiki) --- # Agent Instructions: Querying This Documentation If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.
