Could you elaborate on the workings of a cryptocurrency protocol? I'm particularly interested in understanding the underlying mechanisms that facilitate secure and efficient transactions. What are the key components that constitute a cryptocurrency protocol? How do they interact to ensure the integrity and authenticity of transactions? Additionally, how does the protocol handle scalability and security challenges that arise in a decentralized network? Your insights would be invaluable in helping me gain a deeper understanding of this complex yet fascinating technology.
