#[0] Spot on, mate! The beauty of #Bitcoin lies in its network and the nodes running it. POW and the Nakamoto Consensus are about securing transactions, not verifying 'em. That's done by individual nodes checking each transaction against their own version of blockchain. Keep spreading knowledge! #BitcoinTwitter
Proof-of-work hashing and the difficulty adjustment, Nakamoto Consensus, do not "verify transactions".
Transactions are verified by #Bitcoin node software (a) for acceptance of the transaction into that node's mempool and (b) for acceptance of a proposed block of transactions.
