The propagation speed gain from having smaller blocks is linear in the size
reduction, down to a small size, after which the delay of the first byte
prevails [1], however the blockchain fork rate increases superlinearly,
giving an overall worse tradeoff. A high blockchain fork rate is a symptom

Same way ghash.io was banned from the network when used Finney attacks
against BetCoin Dice.
As Andreas Antonopoulos says, if any of the miners do anything bad, we
just ban them from mining. Any sort of

Most Stratum pools already do multiple updates of the header every block
period,
bandwidth is really incon

In this e-mail I'll do my best to argue than if you accept that
increasing the transactions/second is a good direction to go, then
increasing the maximum block size is not the best way to do it. I argue
that the right direction to go is to decrease the block rate to 1
minute, while keeping the bloc
