RE: Steem Witness Scheduling Algorithm
I notice your comment but I'm not particularly interested in rehashing an issue from two years ago, particularly given significant differences in how the platform operates now compared to then.
Thank you for your answer - do you mean that what is explained in this article is not anymore the way witnesses below 20 are selected / scheduled to produce blocks ? If that is what you mean, would you be so kind and direct me to more recent / accurate information ? I want to start a witness node and I'm therefore very interested in this topic: how often does a witness (below the first 20) get to append a block ? Has the selection algorithm changed ?
Thanks in advance!
I do not believe the witness scheduling has changed significantly. However, if the exactly algorithm is important to you the only way to be sure you are getting the precise details right is to review the current source code.
Thanks. No, knowing the exact algorithm is not a priority, we'll see by doing because we have already begun the process of setting up a witness node
