Difficulty Scaling in Proof of Work for Decentralized Problem Solving

Pericles Philippopoulos, Alessandro Ricottone, Carlos G. Oliver

We propose DIPS Difficulty-based Incentives for Problem Solving), a simple modification of the Bitcoin proof-of-work algorithm that rewards blockchain miners for solving optimizati…
