Non-collusive miners cast votes based on the outcome&#xA;&gt; of their own attempts to double spend.&#xA;&gt;&#xA;&#xA;Individually rational strategy is to vote for coinbase reallocation on&#xA;every block.&#xA;&#xA;Yes, in that case nobody will get reward. It is similar to prisoner&#39;s&#xA;dilemma: equilibrium has worst pay-off.&#xA;In practice that would mean that simple game-theoretic models are no longer&#xA;applicable, as they lead to absurd results.&#xA;&#xA;&#xA;&gt; I&#39;m using it in the same sense Satoshi used it. Honest miners work to&#xA;&gt; prevent double spends. That&#39;s the entire justification for their existence.&#xA;&gt; Miners that are deliberately trying to double spend are worse than useless.&#xA;&gt;&#xA;&#xA;Miners work to get rewards.&#xA;It absolutely doesn&#39;t matter whether they are deliberately trying to&#xA;double-spend or not: they won&#39;t be able to double-spend without a collusion.&#xA;-------------- next part --------------&#xA;An HTML attachment was scrubbed...&#xA;URL: &lt;http://lists.linuxfoundation.org/pipermail/bitcoin-dev/attachments/20140423/94b5255c/attachment.html&gt;</html></oembed>
