Re: [ANN][SEM] Semux - Official Thread

in the Wallet at the site of Delegates is a Ratio. What does it mean? By the way. Sorry for my bad english!

Ratio is number of forged blocks devided to all blocks which can forge that validator.
The smaller the ratios, the more blocks are missed (due server or software failure/shutdown).
Double click on a validator row and you will see detailed info.

meaning that the network should theoretically produce 2,880 blocks per 24 hours. In reality, 2,880 units were produce in 25 hours 30 minutes or 26 hours. It is dispersion or bug?

It's BFT). Not a bug. I described the process in the russian thread.

Thanks!

Can you explain here in English?

Why there isn't exactly 2880 blocks in 24h?

The semux dBFT protocol provides 1 block per 30 seconds. If that is the couner alone then you get 2blocks per minute, 2x60x24=2880 blocks in 24 hours. However there is also network propagation, 67 validators need to vote to certify thatbthe next block is not tampered. This happens in a span of 1-30 seconds. This makes the actual process go more than 30 seconds per block and 2880 blocks going ng beyond 24 hours.

We will release a whitepaper releasing more specifics about this.
