I just put my simple simulation results together at
https://github.com/txngrid/posmodels/blob/master/POS_model.pdf. Hope it helps understand the current PoS issues and why I am proposing this Pool of Stake solution. It covers 2 models and here is the summary.
http://intocrypto.com/images/pos_100_90.png1. A single miner is selected stochastically each time to create a block. These are the issues with this model if too many miners are multiple voting
- It is difficult to tell which branch is the winner, even if a miner wants to be honest, because there is no clear winner in the short term (a few hundred blocks).
- Blockchain reorganization can happen frequently - each crossover in the above graph can be a reorganiztion.
- Forking happens naturally.
