Sunny King's update today was pretty interesting:
Weekly Update #111
- Mike's work on duplicate stake protocol has been reviewed and scheduled for v0.5. This work introduces a change in the duplicate stake detection, such that when a block is received having the same proof-of-stake with the current best block (the latest block on main chain), the best block would be rolled back and proof-of-stake would be minted on top of previous block. At the same time, the block causing the rollback of best block is broadcasted to other nodes to take actions
- This solution introduces disincentive to minting on multiple branches, that is, this type of minters risk losing the acceptance of their blocks.
Have fun!
Anyone have any thoughts on this?
