# 3.4.7 Comparison and Selection

Clique is a straightforward consensus algorithm that is relatively easy to understand and implement. It is based on a simple voting mechanism where participants take turns proposing blocks and voting on their validity. Clique achieves fast block confirmation times and offers immediate finality. Once a block is proposed and validated by the majority of participants, it is considered final. This attribute is particularly useful in applications where quick confirmation of transactions is desired.\
