How to Mitigate Block Withholding Attacks?
Here are some practical ways to minimize the impact of block attacks on withholding and to avoid the potential dangers-
- Miners should sign up to reputable open, transparent, and decentralized mining pools. Hackers gather and usually take advantage of smaller mining companies for the purpose of blocking blocks.
- Mining authorities and government officials should impose massive penalties on miners who are involved in these threats.
- Informing miners about the dangers and effects of blocking attacks against miners, and teaching best practices for safe mining can reduce the risk of such attacks as well as related risks.
- Attacks like block withholding could be improved by making it easy for attackers to separate blocks from networks. Through making the mining process more challenging (raising the difficulty of mining) and making it more difficult for attackers to continue from releasing blocks.
