If two miners solve a block at the same time, who wins?

>> No.16553648

>>16553631
the one who broadcasts the correct solution first

>> No.16553663

>>16553648
What if there's an even number of miners, half of them get one solution and the other half the other?

The one that propagates and is verified by 51% of the nodes first

Statistically extremely unlikely, but the bad block will be orphaned and the longest chain will continue

Wrong.

The winner is the one that gets into the longest chain

No shit retard, he's asking who is the winner that gets to go in that chain?

If this is a clever way to show all the biz tards who act like they know about bitcoin actually don't know shit, you are doing a great job and I approve. Everyone just parrots the same misconceptions with no actual idea what the whitepaper states.

In this situation you would have to call blockstream and ask

Other miners have to build on their block, just broadcasting it is not enough. Block propagation is half the battle as a miner.

>> No.16554696

>>16553746
Chain split. Half of the miners who got one block will reject the other half's chain.
