SPV typically are ran on a smart phone and dont not have the full block chain as a node does.
A transaction is broadcasted when released to the mempool by a node.
Typically a miner will chose a transaction with the most bytes or satoshis to bytes. Miners get paid
by solving problems and transactions.
Instead of have the whole Blockchain information, a SPV request this information from a Full Node which has a copy of the entire Blockchain.
That means that the transaction is being propagate in the entire network trough the nodes.
Miners choose the highest transactions fees.
Homework on Bitcoin Ecosystem - Questions
What is the difference between a SPV (simplified payment verification) and a full node?
An SPV (simplified payment verification) has a private key but does not have the entire blockchain. It can query the blockchain from a full node in order to ensure a transaction gets into a block and confirmed.
What does it mean when a transaction is broadcasted?
A broadcasted transaction is added to the mempool so miners can pick it up to include in a new block.
How does a miner pick which transactions that gets added to the next block?
A miner chooses transactions based on fees, i.e. higher satoshis/byte of data.
1 .SPV (simple payment verification) views UTXO on the blockchain for a
particular private key for that device, it also can transact.
A full node keeps a ledger of all the blockchain transactions it transmits and interacts on the network to keep the blockchain eco system running
2 . A transaction is broadcast means that the blockchain network receives a request from a node or miner that a transaction has been requested, these can come from a wallet, SPV , node or miner
3 .The miner pick the transaction from the mempool, which has the highest fees
What is the difference between a SPV (simplified payment verification) and a full node?
Full nodes hold the complete blockchain ledger whereas SPVs only hold a local version comprising there own transactions and must query a full node for data on UTXOs they don’t know about.
What does it mean when a transaction is broadcasted?
The transaction is added to the mempool and propagated across the network to await inclusion into the next block.
How does a miner pick which transactions that gets added to the next block?
Being financially incentivised, the miner will tend to include those transactions with the highest fees.
An SPV is not a Node but communicates with Nodes to verify a transaction.
It means the transaction has 6 or more confirmations on Nodes.
It will choose the transactions with the highest transactions fee.
SPV is a node with part of the blockchain on it
It basically means shouting to everyone on the network that can hear that something is happening and the miners and nodes will validate it.
the miners pick the transactions with the highest sat/B ratio first
1. What is the difference between a SPV (simplified payment verification) and a full node?
An SPV doesn’t contain all the transactions on the blockchain as a node does, it simply communicates with nodes to get information about the transactions.
2. What does it mean when a transaction is broadcasted?
The transaction is communicated to nodes who further propagate it to other nodes.
3. How does a miner pick which transactions that gets added to the next block?
The miner choses transactions with the highest transaction fees to maximize its profit.
SPV doesnt have a copy of the blockchain but can verify that transactions are in a block. spv requires much less data to operate (mobile)
a transaction has been sent to the network for inclusion to the mempool and ultimately into the blockchain.
miners will likely include the transaction with the highest fees.
The SPVs are light weight nodes that does not have the full database. Normally they are simple wallets that query the full nodes on their behalf.
All wallets when sending bitcoin first sign the transaction and subsequently broadcast the transaction to be picked up by the network nodes and placed temporary in the mempool. Broadcasting here means that copy of transaction is propagated into the whole network for miners to be picked up for mining.
Miners because of being rewarded always pick the transaction that pays the highest fee.
An SPV does not store the entire blockchain and generally queries a full node, which as the name implies, has the full chain, for the transaction data required to construct a transaction.
When an SPV constructs a transaction it first gets transmitted to the closest node, then that node will propagate the transaction to other nodes, which includes miners. The transaction is being broadcasted over the network. Once that has happened it will either be added to the next block, or if that block is already at maximum capacity, be held in the mempool until it is integrated in a block.
A miner favors to pick the transactions that have the highest fees per byte. Lower fee-per-byte transactions will have to wait for a block with free capacity.
SPV does not verify transactions. It is doing less things than a full node.
Transaction being stored into the mempool of node, waiting to be picked up by miner and put into the next block.
It will based on the transaction will higher fee, so that they receive higher block reward if successfully mined.
An SVP does not have a it’s own copy of the blockchain, it relies on a full node’s copy.
An SVP can generate TX’s, as opposed to a full node.
A wallet or an SPV puts a TX on the blockchain network.
Miners pick the TX’s with the highest fees.
1.spv may contain some of the blockchain but maybe not all of it, it uses data off a node which contains the full blockchain.
2.its confirmed by all nodes and then added to the blockchain
3.a miner will pick transactions with the highest fee
What is the difference between a SPV (simplified payment verification) and a full node?
An SPV does not maintain full blockchain data. It holds the information necessary for processing
its own transactions and will inquire and verify transactions throufh a full node on the network.
What does it mean when a transaction is broadcasted?
The transaction is propagated to the network, is sent to mempools of nodes in the network until incorporated into a block. Then it is removed from the mempool.
How does a miner pick which transactions that gets added to the next block?
Miners are financially incentivized, they will select the highest satoshi per byte
transaction.
1 SPVs não possuem o registro de toda a blockchain, mantem apenas as transações relevantes e precisam consultar um full node para ter informações a respeito da blockchain, o full node possui todo o registro de transações da blockchain, tem informações sobre UTXO e verifica a coerência das transações na blockchain.
2 Quer dizer que a transação foi enviada para outros nodes.
3 Eles selecionam as transações do mempool e escolhem as transações com taxas mais lucrativas para preencher o espaço disnponível no bloco a ser minerado.
