Q » What happens when two miners solve a block at the same time?
02 Nov, 2025
A » When two miners solve a block simultaneously, the blockchain temporarily forks, creating two competing branches. The network will eventually resolve this by allowing the longest chain to become the accepted one, as it represents the most accumulated proof-of-work. Miners will then switch to this chain, and the orphaned block will be discarded, ensuring the network remains secure and consistent.
