whats more disturbing to me is that a member of the electroneum team who is being mocked in that twitter, has taken the time to respond multiple times to that twitter, but we have not heard anything from the team at all… are they more concerned with keeping their clout among monero devs or responding to the electroneum community?
its not too much to ask for a “we’re aware of this, this is what we think” because perhaps they do have a fantastic explanation about whats going on, maybe they can take some time to point out to folks there are some instances where empty blocks will occur, and thats the truth, but they are also aware of the times when it should not and they are doing X Y Z or will have an update for us in the upcoming week on this…
for those who don’t know, there WILL be empty blocks sometimes at this stage of the coin, we sometimes blow through all the transactions and nothing is left to process, and thats when its okay, when its not okay is where we see a lot of older transactions sitting and waiting to be processed but then a chain of multiple blocks pops up processing no transactions, thats when we should be annoyed…
the whole purpose of miners is to move along the network and process transactions, if pools are intentionally avoiding this, they are essentially contributing nothing to the network, they are delaying our transactions, even if just 10min or 20min its still getting paid to do nothing for electroneum, and that shouldn’t sit well with anyone, especially not people who have time to respond to monero devs on twitter but ignore us…
