Speaking of the largest block. what is the smallest block with the least transactions within a year? I mean there has to be a block with maybe like 50 transactions right?
I don't know the answer, but I think one could create a block with no transactions. I think?
But I mean in "modern times" arent there transactions every millisecond? How could one be created with 0?
Sure, a miner
could almost always include transactions in a block, but he doesn't
have to include any transactions. He could simply produce the empty block. So, for whatever reasons, sometimes miners do just that.
What would be the reason behind doing that? Whats the use of an empty block if it contains no transactions?
