We present a general consensus framework that allows to easily introduce acustomizable Byzantine fault tolerant consensus algorithm to an existing(Delegated) Proof-of-Stake blockchain. We prove the safety of the protocolunder the assumption that less than 1/3 of the validators are Byzantine. Theframework further allows for consensus participants to choose subjectivedecision thresholds in order to obtain safety even in the case of a largerproportion of Byzantine validators. Moreover, the liveness of the protocol isshown if less than 1/3 of the validators crash.  Based on the framework, we introduce Lisk-BFT, a Byzantine fault tolerantconsensus algorithm for the Lisk ecosystem. Lisk-BFT integrates with theexisting block proposal mechanism, requires only two additional integers inblocks and no additional messages. The protocol is simple and provides safetyin the case of static validators if less than 1/3 of the validators areByzantine. For the case of dynamically changing validators, we prove the safetyof the protocol assuming a bound on the number of Byzantine validators and thenumber of honest validators that can change at one time. We further show theliveness of the Lisk-BFT protocol for less than 1/3 crashing validators.
