Ouroboros.Consensus.Block.EBB
Description
Generic infrastructure for working with EBBs
Documentation
Whether a block is an Epoch Boundary Block (EBB)
See Ouroboros.Storage.ImmutableDB.API for a discussion of EBBs. Key idiosyncracies:
- An EBB carries no unique information.
- An EBB has the same
BlockNoas its predecessor. - EBBs are vestigial. As of Shelley, nodes no longer forge EBBs: they are only a legacy/backwards-compatibility concern.
