I remember that some people said, empty blocks are bad for the network security.
What could possibly be the explanation for such a claim? Little to no transactions to mine into blocks would be seriously concerning. But that's basically all I can think of (I don't know all, for sure).

I dont think this claim makes any sense.

You could say that empty blocks offer a smaller reward for the mine, which could discourage mining in the long term.

As they are very rare, I dont agree with this claim.




Just saw this in mempool.space
