Three strikes and you're out! IDK what that could be used = for. You could say "oops, I made a mistake, can I correct it by equivocating jus= t this time?". Three strikes and you are out. > Lastly, while you can't punish lying, you could say "only the stakers who= sign with the majority get allocated reward tokens for that slot". So you = could equivocate to switch and get tokens, but you'd burn your collateral f= or them. But this does make an incentive for the stakers to try to sign the= "correct" statement in line with peers. Note the quote marks around "correct" --- the majority of peers could be co= nspiring to lie, too. Conspiracy theory time..... Regards, ZmnSCPxj
