Can someone help me understand what the block time of this coin is based on? All I'm reading is that it's "random" proof-of-work. Does that mean it can be anything between 1 second and infinite, or is there a limit? And if so: what is that limit?
Also, did I understand correctly that the fork will introduce a maximum block time of 6 minutes?
2 minutes... Long blocks are due to other issues. This is part 1 of the update part 2 will come in the following weeks barring issues, and will add some addition needed items.
The fork corrects blocks being stuck mainly in pools.
