Blocks: Availability Across Space and Time

Blocks exist on Telcoin Network and are continuously produced to the chain every 4.5 to 6 seconds based on rough estimates.

Definition: Availability of blocks across space and time.

  • Spatial: Blocks exist on the Telcoin Network. Users located on Telcoin Network have access to new and old blocks. For a user to be on the Telcoin Network, they must either have a web3 wallet connected to a Telcoin Network RPC or a Telcoin mobile app.
  • Temporal: The Telcoin Network is constantly producing new blocks, therefore users in the appropriate location can always consume new blocks. These new blocks are committed to the chain periodically, every 4.5-6 seconds based on rough estimates of network demand. If demand is low, nodes propose blocks after a certain amount of time. If demand is high, blocks are produced when they contain enough transactions.
