So, gmaxwell suggested a network protocol improvement where you would publish 1/20th strength blocks, and the encoding could refer to a previous block. This could be combined with IBLT, but it's really orthogonal. It seems to offer some nice scalability upsides; anyone else interested?
bliljerk101 has joined #bitcoin-wizards
<kanzure>
strength=?
<rusty>
kanzure: near PoW misses.
<kanzure>
so 1/20-of-difficulty?
<kanzure>
er, 1/20-of-difficulty-target?
<rusty>
kanzure: yeah...
<kanzure>
this might increase the average length of reorgs, but i doubt this is a big problem
<kanzure>
whoops i mean average depth of reorgs..
<rusty>
kanzure: I don't quite see how?
<kanzure>
if valid chaintips become easier to make then i would expect more of them competing at the same time
<kanzure>
i don't have a good reason, still thinking about that
<kanzure>
which particular scalability upsides are you thinking of?
ThomasV has quit [Ping timeout: 244 seconds]
<rusty>
kanzure: you wouldn't build on these. They just give provable insight into the current miners' mempools, and allow bandwidth scalability as you can say "the final block is like NNNN, with the following changes...".
Guest91424 has quit [Quit: No Ping reply in 180 seconds.]
<kanzure>
if you were to redact transactions (or include extra transactions) in already-mined blocks, then that means you woudl also be storing the near-miss pows in the blockchain as well?
<rusty>
kanzure: no, these "WIP" blocks are just for network communication.
<kanzure>
or would this only be a way for preferentially picking chaintips, outside of longest/best pow rules?

I think it's been discussed before, but is there a good reason you couldn't have the mempools doing some sort of paxos?

I like the idea of publishing 1/20th strength blocks. However, I think that's too conservative. 1/100th is what I'd vote for, personally.
<Eliel>
Taek: some sort of identity based high speed consensus for mempools does sound like a good idea as well. At least, if the identities used are transient and change every block.
