you try the best upcoming nostr client yet ?
it happens...
ultimately it's random but in experiments i've done with various methods i've found there are some ways to tighten the variance...
the first method i found that worked was having multiple different block "types" that each had to be distributed according to a different distribution, 9 of those with a doubling of duration between them narrowed it down to about 50%, ie for bitcoin that would be 5/20 minutes, for more than like 99% of the time
a second method had to do with using a more advanced type of adjustment, which adds the integral of the error rate (variance versus target), and though i didn't get it right at the time, the derivative of the base variation curve, if it has a high frequency squelch applied to it (reducing the high frequency component of the derivative) probably also can get to the range of the 9 way multi-schedule scheme
i don't know what the probability of 1 hour between blocks is, but it's maybe less than once a year, so maybe it is a lucky event
the halving also fell right as a CME hit the earth btw, did you know that?
was 71 minutes at the end... man, those shitcoiners get desperate to get their thing in the next block... previous block was 1200sat/vB max and that 71 min block was 5600sat/vB
such high time preference or what...
