Who determines what chains will be mined?
Discussion
Use should. If a chain is used it will be mined. With enough nodes mining/validating multiple chains at a time the system should remain stable. Unlikely that a chain goes down, especially with a finite number of chains like sub-1000.
Still looking into it, and I'm not sold either way, but that one's fairly clear.
“Should” is not concrete. Keep digging in and learning.
Phrased differently, what incentives do miners have to mine a Drivechain? How decentralized are miners?
Have you heard Stephan Livera’s pod with Shinobi recently?
Also, who crafts the block templates for miners? How decentralized is this template creation?
