With banks we could implement:

      number belongs to Alice and

\item Alice hasn’t already spent this infocoin. 

\item If yes, then Bob tells the bank he accept the infocoin

\item the bank updates the records to show that the infocoin

      with that serial number is now in Bob’s possession and

      no longer belongs to Alice\bigskip\pause

The solution for double spend: 

\begin{itemize}

\item make everybody the bank, everybody has the entire

      transaction history --- will be called

      \alert{blockchain}\medskip

\item Bob checks whether infocoin belongs to Alice and then

      broadcasts the message to anybody else

How should other people update their blockchain (public

register)?\pause

\begin{center}

\includegraphics[scale=0.3]{../pics/bitcoindisagreement.png}

\end{center}

Once enough people have broadcast that message, everyone

updates their block chain to show that infocoin 1234567 now

belongs to Bob, and the transaction is complete.

\pause

\small

But what if Alice sets up a large number of separate

identities, let’s say a billion, on the Infocoin network. When

Bob asks the network to validate the transaction, Alice’s

puppet identities say ``Yes his transaction is validated'',

while actually the rest network says Alice's transaction 

is OK?

\frametitle{Proof-Of-Work}

The idea is counterintuitive and involves a combination of two

ideas:\bigskip

\addtolength{\leftmargini}{5mm}

\begin{itemize}

\item to (artificially) make it computationally costly for

      network users to validate transactions, and

\item to reward them for trying to help validate transactions

\end{itemize}

\end{bubble}\pause\bigskip

\small

this is called mining: whoever validates a transaction will be awarded with

50 bitcoins --- this halves every 210,000 transactions or

roughly every 4 years; no new bitcoins after 2140 -- then only 

transaction fees

\begin{frame}[t]

\frametitle{Hardness}

If we want the output hash value to begin with 10 zeroes,

say, then we will need, on average, to try $16^{10} \approx

10^{12}$ different salts before we find a suitable nonce. 

Hardness can be controlled by setting a \alert{target} (maximum

number).

\frametitle{Order of Transactions}

If we don’t have such an ordering then at any given moment it

may not be clear who owns which infocoins.

\begin{center}

\frametitle{Forks}

Typically the blockchain will look as follows

\begin{center}

\includegraphics[scale=0.65]{../pics/block_chain1.png}

\end{center}

\pause

But every so often there is a fork

\begin{center}

\includegraphics[scale=0.65]{../pics/block_chain_fork.png}

\end{center}

\small

\ldots{}bugger this is exactly what we are trying to avoid

\begin{frame}[t]

The tie is broken if another block is solved

\begin{center}

\includegraphics[scale=0.4]{../pics/bitcoin_blockchain_branches.png}

\end{center}

\small

The rule is this: if a fork occurs, people on the network keep

track of all forks. But at any given time, miners only work

to extend whichever fork is longest in their copy of the block

chain.

\end{frame}

%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%% 

%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%

\begin{frame}[t]

\frametitle{Double Spending Again}

So if Alice wants to fake it she needs to produce

a longer chain:

\end{column}

\end{columns}\bigskip\bigskip\pause

\small

A transaction is ``confirmed'' if:\smallskip

(1) it is part of a block in the longest fork, and (2) at

least 5 blocks follow it in the longest fork. In this case we

say that the transaction has ``6 confirmations''.\bigskip

\begin{frame}[t]

\frametitle{Mining Pools}

\begin{bubble}[10cm]

On average, it would take several years for a typical computer

to solve a block, so an individual’s chance of ever solving

one before the rest of the network, which typically takes 10

minutes, is very low.

\end{bubble}\bigskip\pause

\small

Many people join groups called mining pools that collectively

work to solve blocks, and distribute rewards based on work

contributed. These act somewhat like lottery pools among

co-workers, except that some of these pools are quite large,

and comprise more than 20\% of all the computers in the

network.\medskip

\footnotesize

BTC, the largest mining pool, has limited its members to 

not solve more than 6 blocks in a row.
