摘要

本文从概率的角度讨论了Nxt的锻造算法，得到了几个重要量的显式公式和估计，如一个账户生成区块的概率、一个账户生成的连续区块的最长序列的长度、一个并发区块链战胜另一个并发区块链的概率。此外，我们还讨论了一些与将帐户拆分为许多较小帐户相关的攻击向量。

A Probabilistic Analysis of the Nxt Forging Algorithm

We discuss the forging algorithm of Nxt from a probabilistic point of view, and obtain explicit formulas and estimates for several important quantities, such as the probability that an account generates a block, the length of the longest sequence of consecutive blocks generated by one account, and the probability that one concurrent blockchain wins over an- other one. Also, we discuss some attack vectors related to splitting an account into many smaller ones.
