RE: What the fuck do witnesses do?

I like how he closed the discussion

"sure bud"

Like, i can't get a way out so I'll try and look cool to quit it without explain...

But isn't a witness someone who runs the node code of hive? And the software just does all? At least that's what I understood...

Even if my vote is irrelevant, I always check miss blocks when voting, if the person does project for hive and without being hypocrite, who offers more apr for hbd

A witness runs the code that keeps Hive running, but they also choose what to run. Seeing as most witnesses are not technical and just running Hive in a Box, it's kind of just people running whatever everyone else runs without a thought.

Oh so you don't even need the specific version to run... Explains why lot of witnesses have old versions, it's just a copying "you do that so I do too"
Thanks for explaining
