Topic: How blocks are divided to pools? (Read 1006 times)
And since every new block is built on the hash of the previous block, everyone starts over using that hash when a block has been generated. So, in effect, everyone is working on the same block.
It's a lottery. Whoever gets it first wins, and that "win" needs to be confirmed by the rest of the network. So if pool A generates a block at time 1, and pool B generates a block at time 1.0000001, pool A will win, assuming the generation is validated by everyone else.
How are them?
Every mining pool is calculating a different block? or could them calculate the same block?
How the system works?
