Title: A comparative chart of bitcoin vs ethereum nodes Post by: gbianchi on September 12, 2023, 11:29:02 AM A comparative chart with the historical evolution of the number of nodes in the Bitcoin network
and those of the Ethereum network this chart can be useful to have an idea of the degree of "decentralization" of the two networks. https://i.postimg.cc/MG3phGxM/nodi.png (https://postimg.cc/HJ5mMdrd) Title: Re: A comparative chart of bitcoin vs ethereum nodes Post by: _act_ on September 12, 2023, 11:40:47 AM I do not know if your chart is correct or not, but why are you comparing a decentralized network with a centralized network? Bitcoin is using PoW while ethereum is using PoS. POS is centralized. Validators on ethereum blockchain, are they not the ones receiving the reward? While miners on bitcoin network are the ones that are receiving the mining reward while other nodes are not receiving anything but validating for free.

From the two network, one is a decentralized network and the other is not, so what order of decentralization are we to measure in here, also as you have been told that bitcoin uses PoW while the other coin uses PoS, this alone cannot bring about their comparison or degree of decentralization wince they are both not on the same page being decentralized, it would have been better if the two were decentralized and the degree to which they appear being decentralized bith is taken into account. |
