Yeah, if the wallet is auto-combining that is definitely news to me. I was leaving it be but then everyone keeps claiming that combining into bigger chunks produces a bigger return over time so I just combined all my small pieces (anything under like 25hbn) together to see if I stake better.
I calculated returns based on small and big block scenarios. Big blocks have a slight advantage but that assumes you combine blocks right after stake... So might have a disadvantage if you calculate lost age.
The more I lists. To Tranz the more I think everyone should aim to have small blocks that are up for stake. The more blocks you have with weight the safer hbn will be against attacks.
For me, who is PoW mining, and I think you're too presstab, I think the "small block" are bad for the PoW mining, because it makes the diff go to the moon.
We still have the 30s block, and after a lot of small blocks, the PoS blocks are appearing every "seconds", so it makes the diff goes really high.
I was thinking about this, like launching a "coin control combining blocks" campaign, to "motivate" HBN users to combine their small blocks.
So for me, as a PoW miner, I think "bigger" blocks give more return because the diff will increase "less" fast.
