Have you checked out this week's edition of "This Week in Quai"❓ This week: ➡️ Quote from Dr K.quai⚡💵 on how to make digital payments appealing to non crypto-natives ➡️ Diving into what a blockchain account is Give it a read in the Quai blog!👇 buff.ly/3oWYV1q

An orphan block is a valid block that is not included in the canonical blockchain, and is essentially "thrown out." These blocks occur when two valid blocks are proposed near-simultaneously, and nodes are forced to select one over the other. 7/

This eliminates the period of uncertainty that occurs in Nakamoto Consensus when an orphan block is produced. Orphan/uncle blocks can still be produced in Quai. The difference is that in Quai, these orphan/uncle blocks have no impact on time-to-consensus. 15/

The ideas shared about PoEM in this thread are just the tip of the iceburg. To learn more about the PoEM consensus mechanism and how it allows Quai to truly scale infinitely, check out the Quai Documentation: buff.ly/3Cs91uv Thanks for reading! 17/17

This structure is referred to as a "braid" of blockchains, as all chains are periodically interconnected by coincident blocks created by merged mining. Simply by mining, Quai miners are facilitating cross-chain transactions and interoperability across the network. 12/

The initial structure of Quai will have the Prime chain, 3 Region chains, and 9 Zone chains. However, due to Quai's ability to dynamically shard, the number of chains in the network (and thus available throughput) can grow with demand. 13/

Quai developers have been hard at work ensuring that the hardware requirements to run a trustless Quai node are low and accessable. What kind of machine do you plan to run your Iron Age Testnet node on?👇

The development of decentralized finance protocols has opened the door to lending, pooling liquidity, and receiving interest on-chain. What will it take for decentralized finance to become a legitimate competitor to traditional finance?

There are thousands of different cryptocurrencies that have been built and marketed to serve a specific niche. Will niche use cases drive cryptocurrency adoption, or are these niche cryptocurrencies a symptom of a lack of scalability?

In this clip, Dr. K discusses the major tradeoff that Quai makes from a user perspective -- cross-chain transactions take time. Let's dive into why this tradeoff exists, and how it impacts transactions/user experience in Quai👇 1/🧵

As Quai grows, the time that cross-chain transactions take increases, as there are more blockchains being merged mined together into the braid. This chart shows estimated cross-chain transaction times as the network dynamically shards to support more throughput.👇 15/

In summary, Quai Network's use of merged mining to facilitate cross-chain transfers means that cross-chain transfers take time. The amount of time these transfers will take is based on the stochastic process of mining, and the number of Regions/Zones in the system. 16/
