# Quiz 50

What are the benefits of BSV's UTXO model compared to the account-based model? (Choose all that apply)

**Add answers and select the correct ones**

* [x] It allows individuals to communicate directly without intermediaries
* [x] It encapsulates each informational event as an atomic, pseudonymous record
* [ ] It requires central authorities to manage network activity
* [ ] It eliminates the need for public time-stamping of transactions

**Note to Learners**

Instead of the account-based model which requires a central authority to manage network activity... BSV's UTXO model allows the identities of the relevant parties to be packaged into the event itself. Each UTXO is a record of ownership between individuals, but those individuals are only linked to the transactional event pseudonymously.
