Q1Domain Verified
In the context of Bitcoin's Proof-of-Work (PoW) consensus, what is the primary role of the "difficulty adjustment" mechanism?
To facilitate the creation of new Bitcoin through a predetermined issuance schedule.
To ensure that the block reward halves approximately every four years, maintaining scarcity.
To verify the integrity of transactions within a block by requiring a certain number of confirmations.
To dynamically adjust the computational effort required to find a valid block, targeting a consistent block production time.
Q2Domain Verified
A miner successfully mines a new Bitcoin block. They include a transaction that sends 50 BTC to themselves. This 50 BTC represents which of the following?
A reward for successfully solving a cryptographic puzzle, composed of transaction fees and a fixed subsidy.
The block subsidy, which is the newly minted Bitcoin created as a reward for mining.
A portion of previously existing Bitcoin that has been re-allocated through the mining process.
A transaction fee paid by a previous miner to incentivize their inclusion.
Q3Domain Verified
Consider a scenario where a malicious actor controls 40% of the Bitcoin network's total hashing power. What is the most significant threat posed by this situation to the PoW consensus?
They could unilaterally change the blockchain's transaction history to double-spend their own coins.
They could prevent specific legitimate transactions from ever being confirmed on the blockchain.
They could halt all block production indefinitely, effectively freezing the network.
They could force the network to adopt a different hashing algorithm, invalidating existing miners' work.
