oh kano...(facepalm)
no the 0.5% is not some time conversion meaning 3 seconds(your premiss)
its actually the blocks that occured throughout 2020 where out of 58000 blocks only 280 of them were empty blocks. its got nothing to do with YOUR "3 second" maths of 600seconds / 5%.
its got everything to do with the small insignificant utility of doing empty blocks
anyway. as for your "not sure where you got that statement from but its not true"
i quoted YOU. infact you quoted me quoting you. thus double obvious where that statement came from
seems your forgetting what you wrote and then spinning a different version of events as if you never said the first version of events you implied even when its clearly been quoted of what you said
one last time.. so take a seat. relax and slowly understand things. have a cup of coffee after and actually let the information be absorbed.
YOU said majority of network would build onto a invalid block..
I SAID no. majority of blocks are NOT built ontop of via the 'empty block strategy'
as proven by only 280 blocks out of 58000 blocks statistic
i debunked you by showing you the under 280 of 58000 stat for 2020. which shows that majority of pools DO NOT build ontop of invalid blocks due to the low amount of empty block strategy being used.
i hope you get it now. accept that empty block strategy is not used as often as you presume
.
now a reminder of the math. for the last time. so please allow it to soak in
0.5% is the number of empty blockers (those who build on a block thats not been validated yet)
5% is the under 5% that have not signalled a desire to upgrade to TR
=under 0.025% that 'could' ignorantly accept an errored block
then with other factors included..(basically assuming a 10% risk/intent) puts it at a 0.0025% risk of an intentional event.
...
so lets just pretend you stepped a few steps forward and realised the chance of it happening is 0.0025%
your then asking what about those that then build on top of that
seriously your talking about "those".. meaning you want to interrogate who the 0.0025% pools are
well it does not matter in the end. as its a small insignificant proportional risk of a insignificant amount that would want to make an alt. and even if they did. so be it. they are an alt.. bye bye moving on
meaning 99.975% have rejected that block and moved on and just accepting normal blocks
yawn. no drama. non event. didnt even notice it happen coz its such an insignificant event
just like all other orphans that have ever occured in the last 12 years that no one talks about or realised even occured unless they specifically went and looked
realise that is like a negligible amount/opportunity that would make their own altcoin if they wished to proceed down their path. and thus it does not impact the rest of the network
..
the orphan rate drama just self regulates it out.
at a risk of 0.0025%
a meaningless number of insignificance
again.. the chances of a pool making an empty block is about 280 out of say 52k+
the chances of a empty block building ontop of a faulty block due to not being an upgraded node is even less
the chance of a pool normal game theory incentive. and intentionally wanting to cause an error even less
so please stop saying/thinking that majority of the network does the empty block strategy, let alone other false presumptions
because stats show the very opposite.
majority of stratum servers(pools) are NOT SPV nodes making empty blocks
this is the final time im going to repeat myself. because it seems you are not understanding stats and numbers and quotes
step passed your pre conceived notion that majority of pools are amateurs that use crappy stratum software.
as thats not reality.
