Yuma Consensus

Yuma Consensus is how the chain combines many validators' scores into one result.

For each miner, it looks at the weights every validator gave it and finds the level that validators holding at least half the stake agree with. This is a stake-weighted median: the score the majority of stake supports.

Any weight above that level is cut down to it. A validator that scores a miner far higher than everyone else does not get its way.

Each miner's share of the miner rewards then comes from these combined scores, added up across all validators and weighted by their stake.

Yuma Consensus is about scoring inside subnets. It has nothing to do with producing blocks.
