Monero Orphan Blocks Spike Amid Qubic Mining War
Di Monero network record suffer big jump wit five orphan blocks in 24 hours from August 6–7 during wey dem dey fight Monero and Qubic mining pool. Orphan blocks, wey mean say gbege occur when some miners solve di same block height for the same time, spike 'cause one unknown miner jab pass the big miners four out of five times. Qubic pipo core developer, CFB, hint say di pool get 'silent mining' move – hiding their hashpower – wey cause di increase. Some pipo talk say na PR stunt, plus dem talk say orphan blocks dey naturally for proof-of-work system. Monero experts like Monero Research Labs and ex-core developer Ricardo Spagni talk say di rate still normal but dem warn say selfish mining fit happen. For now, di risk for XMR network security no too bother us, but traders wey dey watch Monero orphan blocks and Qubic hashwar suppose dey sharp.
Neutral
Even if five orphan blocks draw market attention, similar spikes don happen before without serious effect on XMR price or liquidity. Orphan blocks na part of proof-of-work networks, and experts like Monero Research Labs and Ricardo Spagni see this event as normal statistical variance. Although Qubic’s hidden hashpower and alleged selfish mining bring uncertainty, Monero’s decentralized network dey limit systemic risk. Short-term traders fit observe small waka-waka when orphan block metrics show, but long-term faith for XMR privacy and network security go remain steady, meaning market impact na neutral.
