- Is the block that is not accepted on the blockchain ( that is droped)
3- When two miners guess the nonce exactly at the same time.
4- To be sure that the block of this transactions is not a stale block

It creates two blockchains for a moment that are both valid. The miner will then use the blockchain that closes to there nodes or for some other reason chose one of the two. This makes it so that the one thatâs chosen remains and the other gets dropped.

A stale block is a block that has been validated in the blockchain but has then been dropped.
3.
Stale blocks happen when two blocks are mined at the same time resulting in a match to see which block get picked up and which get dropped.
4.
Becouse the risk of having your information in a stale block decreased with the added blocks. (6 blocks is the golden number)

- After that, another miners wants to create the block; so if he chose the block of the first miner, the blockchain is the first, if he chose the block of the second miner, the blockchain is the second.
- A stale block is a block rejected and deleted from the blockchain.
- When two miners create a block at the same time, after this, one block will be the stale block.
- To be sure that the block in which you have your transaction will not be rejected.

1* When 2 miners solve a block at the same time the longest chain wins.
2* A stale block is a block that was dropped from the blockchain because the other fork in the chain was longer.
3* It is the block with the shortest chain
4*Because it could possibly become stale and be dropped from the blockchain

1. What happens in the bitcoin network when two miners solve a block at the same time?
Both blocks will be transmitted to the nodes. Two different versions of the chain will exist until the next block is mined creating a longer chain and will be the current chain.
2. What is a stale block?
The block in the chain that has lost will be a stale block
3. How do stale blocks occur?
See 1 and 2
4. Why is it important to wait for more than one block to be confirmed when sending or receiving a transaction?
If your transaction is part of a stale block it will be moved back into the mempool

- when two miners solve a block at the same time, they start propagating their version of the truth and so making 2 valid versions of the blockchain.
- Stale block or orphan block is a block which was valid once but later it was droped because it is not part of the longest blockchain anymore, and the tx of this block gets back in the mempool.
- Stale block occurs when there is no other blocks attached to him, so making him orphan.
- To prevent our block droping or going orphan.

What happens in the bitcoin network when two miners solve a block at the same time?
There will be 2 valid blocks but the longest chain will be taken while the other one is dropped in the mempool. -
What is a stale block?
Itâs a block that was not accepted into the blockchain and goes back to the mempool. -
How do stale blocks occur?
When the competitorâs block is chosen by another miner before the other block because it has a longer chain aka pow. -
Why is it important to wait for more than one block to be confirmed when sending or receiving a transaction?
It is important to wait to make sure the block has the longest chain and waiting 6 more confirmations to make sure it is valid and doesnât get dropped.

- What happens in the bitcoin network when two miners solve a block at the same time? Two chains are now being mined temporarily until the longest chain wins. Then the shorter chain blocks will be orphaned blocks and those transactions will be kicked back into the mempool
- What is a stale block? A stale block or orphaned block are blocks that weâre mined but were on a shorter chain which ultimately was dropped.
- How do stale blocks occur? Two blocks are mined and nearly the same time creating a chain split. Both chains continue until a clear winner is created via the longest chain and miners choose the longest chain. When that happens the shorter chain blocks become stale blocks and get kicked back to the mempool.
- Why is it important to wait for more than one block to be confirmed when sending or receiving a transaction? Because that block may ultimately end up stale. You should wait for 6 confirmations to ensure your transaction is on the longest chain and will not become stale.

- What happens in the bitcoin network when two miners solve a block at the same time?
When two miners solve a block at the same time both blocks are appended to the blockchain. Whichever block is used by miners to create the next block becomes the permanent block, and the the other block is removed, or orphaned, from the blockchain.
- What is a stale block?
A stale block is a block that was once appended to the blockchain at the same time as another block, but was removed due to the succeeding block being built onto the other block in the chain.
- How do stale blocks occur?
Stale blocks occur when multiple miners solve the nonce at the same time and then are both of their blocks are appended to the blockchain. Then one of the two blocks is dropped from the block chain due to the blockchain being continued on only one of those two blocks.
- Why is it important to wait for more than one block to be confirmed when sending or receiving a transaction?
It is important to wait for more than one block when sending or receiving transactions to be sure that the block with your transaction in it is permanent and does not become a stale or orphaned block.

How do stale blocks occur?
Stale blocks occur after a fork is resolved with a longer chain
Why is it important to wait for more than one block to be confirmed when sending or receiving a transaction?
two chains, once one chain is accepted as the main chain, the transactions of the loosing chain are returned back to the mempool

The miner with the most blocks on the network gets the block. -
What is a stale block?
A block that is let go to avoid duplicated parts which are created when 2 miners solve a block at the same time -
How do stale blocks occur?
When 2 miners from different parts of the world solve at the same time. -
Why is it important to wait for more than one block to be confirmed when sending or receiving a transaction?
To avoid stale blocks it is necessary to have 6 confirmed blocks.
-
Will be two different version of true. Then when next miner will choose one of the block then will become the longest blockchain PoW will be accepted. The other block (Stale block ) will be rejected and all TX transaction will be returned to Mempool.
-
Stale block (orphan block) it is a block which has been rejected from blockchain due to another block was produced at the same time but accepted by others to be in longer blockchain.
-
They occur when two miners produce the blocks at similar times. But than when one is dropped due to blockchain continues with the other block.
-
You need to wait for 6 confirmations. Every block is produced in speed of 10 min. This way all the block can propagate thru the network to make shore the block is not dropped from blockchain.
-
they both will be added to the blockchain, the chain that gets the first block after that is the longest chain so the other block will be orphaned/dropped
-
A block that was not added to the blockchain because another block was able to add a new block faster becoming the longest chain
-
When a blockchain splits because 2 minders add blocks at the same time. and a new block is added to one of those 2 blocks, the block of the shortest chain will be staled
-
You have to wait for 6 new blocks to occure to make sure you have not mined a stale block and yur transactions are dropped
- The two mined blocks simultaneously append to the previous block in the chain resulting in a fork-like structure
- A Stale block is a block that is dropped from the shorter chains that may be formed when a longer chain on the blockchain is formed.
- A Stale block occurs when the above fork occurs and then a new block is minned. When the new block mined appends to one of the forks, the network sees the fork as the longest chain. The block (s) on the shortest chain are then dropped from the blockchain with the transactions in them being returned to the mempools.
- This is important so that the network is able to satisfactorily establish and determine which chain is the longest fork occurring from blocks being simultaneously appended, dropping them to obtain one version of the truth of the blockchain and also effectively allowing the network to re-sync.
Correction to no 4)
4) This is important so that the network is able to satisfactorily establish that your transaction exists on a valid chain that represents the truth of the network.
-
There are two chains until the next block is mined. After the next block is mined and added two one of the two chains, the longer one will survive.
-
The block, which did not survive from answer one.
-
Two miners solve a block at the same time
-
To make sure, that your transaction is not part of a stale block
-
the blocks will keep going until a longer chain proves the shorter one
-
a stale block or orphan block is basically a block that failed behind and got outpaced by another block showing a longer link for proof of work
-
a stale block simply means a longer chain of blocks came a long and kicked the shorter one out and thatâs how it becomes stale.
7, because your block can be orphaned
What happens in the bitcoin network when two miners solve a block at the same time?
Both may start propagating the new block which will be appended to the blockchain on the nodes they start propagating to. there will then be two versions of the blockchain. other miners can start appending new blocks to whatever version of the chain they have.
What is a stale block?
After the situation in the previous question occurs, at some point the two versions of the blockchain will be notices and the longest chain will be chosen, newly appended blocks on the other version of the chain will simply be dropped resulting in stale blocks
How do stale blocks occur?
they occur when they have been dropped from another competing version of the block chain as described in the two previous questions. i.e. blocks dropped from the shortest chain
Why is it important to wait for more than one block to be confirmed when sending or receiving a transaction?
it is important since the transaction that may have supplied more funds or taken away funds from an address for a new transaction could be dropped returning the transaction to the mempool
- if this is the case there will be both blocks accepted by the notes and confirmed.there are two versions of truth. the blockchain will accept then the block which the next miner will chose to propergate his block.
- a stale block ist a block which is droping out of the blockchain and goes back to the mempool.
- a stale block accurs when there will be both blocks accepted by the notes and confirmed.there are two versions of truth. the blockchain will accept then the block which the next miner will chose to propergate his block.the other block is the stale block then.
- its important to have mor confirmations to make sure there is no stale block in the transaction!
