      .@Avivz78 orphan risk: SPY mining at around 60% hashrate, and they have no self-orphan risk. but compact blocks is not adversarially secure.

      .@Avivz78 FIBRE reduces latency via multi-source FEC & UDP, but like compact-blocks under it, is also not adversarially secure.

      .@Avivz78 block proposal pre-distribution (eg weak block & similar) maybe adversarially secure, but probably only up to selfish mining limit

      .@Avivz78 tho it appears mining centralisation is far above selfish mining limits. committed transactions may amplify censorship resistance.

      2MB blocks were sufficiently secure in old P2P network of 2012 and mining centralization would hardly be affected.

      blocksize vs centralization is a trade-off, it's not a threshold after which bad things happen. Deciding the value is politics

      Block size does have threshold after which extremely bad things can happen. But we don't know where that threshold is.

      We have good ways of deriving bounds from data. Did some of that in Ghost paper.

      BTW your work is the best analysis I've seen, thank you! But it's still not enough to satisfactorily characterize these risks.
