Everything that defines the Bitcoin network is in the validation rules, and the nodes are its enforcers. An impenetrable fortress of validation. Because it deserves an episode of its own, today we read @StopandDecrypt's excellent breakdown of the Bitcoin network and the critical importance of fully validating nodes. Originally an excerpt from a much longer article covered on the show, "Sharding Centralizes Ethereum." Drop some major applause on the original article below and don't forget to explore the graphics for some amazing visualizations of the concepts discussed: https://medium.com/hackernoon/bitcoin-miners-beware-invalid-blocks-need-not-apply-51c293ee278b Support the show and help me turn every amazing work of written content on Bitcoin and the Cryptoconomy into audio by becoming a patron! https://www.patreon.com/thecryptoconomy --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/thecryptoconomy/message

What if we already had a solution to one of the biggest threats to the Bitcoin network, but simply weren't implementing it? Today we read another great piece by @stopanddecrypt breaking down the numerous vulnerabilities of centralized mining pools, that simply wouldn't exist, with the implementation of a @TheBlueMatt's new hashing protocol, #BetterHash.

When we dig to the very base elements of Bitcoin, we find it is merely digital points. What make these integers different from identical ones on billions of other computers? It is the rules that restrict the editing of those specific integers we call Bitcoin, in other words, it is the network of validating nodes that define it. In this episode you will hear Part 1 of my argument as to why. Don't forget to check out @StopAndDecrypt's relevant article series and the amazing graphics for visualizing the relationship between nodes, miners, and the network by visiting the page below: https://medium.com/@StopAndDecrypt --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/thecryptoconomy/message
