2) On changing the receive address, it does change the blockhash, but then it also reveals the "key" to breaking the idea you posted about choosing the winner.
Timestamp wont help either. Either one can be manipulated by the miner, and make themselves the winner based on the table.
Maybe take sanctuary recipient address instead? Or a combination of sanctuary and miner? Or include BibleHash... Or taking the last two digits/letters (16^2) and you have 1 in 256 chance miner will get the block. I'm sure there's a sweet spot between complexity and hack proof. If you can distribute rewards to different solo miners more often, you may not even need a pool. Then One Click Miner Configuration is all that you need
@jsheets the One Click Miner Configuration line ending issues should be all fixed now. I'll do some more testing, but I can confirm 1.4.4.9 works great under macOS .
We must have a misconception here.
Anti-Bot-Net: Limits "rich kids with too many computers" or a rogue hacker who installed 300 copies of biblepay in the school system.
ABN with UTXO: Limits miners to those that hold 125K min abn weight. Basically fulfilling the above fully.
I thought earlier, when you were discussing ideas of distribution you were trying to limit the reward to One block per distinct receive address (which wont work because it can be hacked).
Trying to limit rewards equally across segments using biblehashes or blocks or sanc addresses is just a fallacy; I dont see how a miner would not be able to hack that; they just increase hashpower when they know their block is going to win; this equals the same we have now: the random luck of a winning hash based on hashpower.
Earlier when I mentioned CPIDs, I used them because you have to *work* hard to build up RAC and then sign the cpid - so you truly are limiting the reward to a worthy recipient (similar to how we are rewarding through minimum UTXOs now - you must prove you have a stake in BBP to mine).
Please think about it, and if you have a full method to limit rewards to single entities feel free to post; but I dont believe one exists in *open source software*; Manna uses telephone numbers (SMS codes) - but that can be hacked by buying multiple phone cards etc.
