Bitcoin consensus is what is called Byzantine consensus - that is your consensus still has to work with some nodes actively trying to send bad information to mess up the protocol.
Raft and Paxos are non-Byzantine. They assume that the nodes are actively trying to follow the protocol though there me be such things as network partitions and crashes.
