I'm curious about the consensus mechanism used by Goerli. Specifically, I want to know if Goerli operates on a proof of work basis, similar to the Ethereum mainnet before the Merge. Is goerli proof of work?

Similarly, Proof-of-Stake, which depends on staking coins, is also distinct from PoA.

Proof-of-Authority (PoA) Consensus is utilized by Goerli.

The use of pre-approved validators in PoA allows for a faster network.

This consensus mechanism relies on validators who are trusted and pre-approved.
