Abstract

The goal of this paper is to establish the general framework of consensus equilibria for Mining Pool Games in Blockchain Ecosystems, and in particular to explain the stable in the sense for the existence of consensus equilibria related to mining gap game’s behaviors by using one new concept called “Consensus Games” under the environment of Blockchain Ecosystems, where, the Blockchain Ecosystem mainly means the economic activities by taking into the account of three fundamental factors which are “Expenses, Reward Mechanism and Mining Power” for the work on blockschain by applying the key consensus called “Proof of Work” due to Nakamoto in 2008 and related ones.
