The Holo network serves as a link between the centralized internet and Holochain, a technology distinct from traditional blockchains. Unlike conventional blockchain systems, Holochain doesn't depend on global consensus for network security. Instead, each decentralized application (DApp) on Holochain operates with its own set of validation rules and maintains a local hash chain for securely storing cryptographically signed records. This architecture provides a unique approach to decentralization, offering autonomy to individual applications within the Holochain ecosystem.
