RE: Some weaknesses in either the DPOS algorithm or its explanation
Answering again: The next witness in that round will immediately reject the block and make witness one miss a block. After 24 hours of missed blocks that witness is automatically disabled. And we have alerts for missing blocks and will by then already have multiple witnesses screaming that that witness is hacked.
(answering all this as a steem witness, bts is similar but can have subtle differences)
These are great answers, @reggaemuffin. Anywhere you know of where I can read this level of in-depth protocol nerdery? Or would I have to go trudging through the source?
Most of my knowledge is from using steem, from being a witness, from developing apps for the Blockchain and from other apps that visualize some of it. The actual steem source is something I did not yet have the time to go through.
If you have any questions, ask me and I can try to answer them and/or point you to good resources where you can read about them.
(if you like what I do and feel I am beneficial to the Blockchain, vote me as a witness 😉)
Done!!!
Thank you for your support :)
