Message definition (VeriBlock and Proof-of-Proof FAQ)
VBK is not merge mining:
# Merge mining requires that the primary and secondary blockchain both have the same mining algorithm; VBK-secured-altchains do not.
# Merge mining requires that the primary chain's miner actively participate, and therefore only a small subset of such miners do. VeriBlock Proof-of-Proof does not require such active participation, VBK PoP transactions are standard BTC transactions paying standard BTC fees, and thus included in by default.
# Merge mining requires the primary miner to run a second node - Whereas BTC miners do not need to run a second node for VBK.
# Merge mining allows one to attack the secondary actively while still mining the primary actively , i.e a "merge attack" instead of merge mining.

VBK is not merge mining:

  1. Merge mining requires that the primary and secondary blockchain both have the same mining algorithm; VBK-secured-altchains do not.
  2. Merge mining requires that the primary chain's miner actively participate, and therefore only a small subset of such miners do. VeriBlock Proof-of-Proof does not require such active participation, VBK PoP transactions are standard BTC transactions paying standard BTC fees, and thus included in by default.
  3. Merge mining requires the primary miner to run a second node - Whereas BTC miners do not need to run a second node for VBK.
  4. Merge mining allows one to attack the secondary actively while still mining the primary actively , i.e a "merge attack" instead of merge mining.
