The reliability of blockchain as an information system is discussed in this article. There were considered two types of models for blockchain systems. One assumes an almost ideal decentralized network with the probability of a software crash on an independent nodes, other adds to this approach a probability of the communication channels corruption. We study consensus algorithms used in blockchain and make assumptions about their reliability and functioning in practice.
