Suppose you want to create a compact proof that a particular address controls at least a certain number of coins (allowing those who verify the proof to enjoy a similar level security to what they would get by running a full node). As a function of chain length and number of addresses, can such a proof be more compact on Bitcoin or on Ethereum? Choose the best answer. A .The proof can be smaller for Bitcoin. B. The proof can be smaller for Ethereum. C .They should be the same down to constant factors such as the size of particular data structures. Justify your answer

Suppose that around a week ago the great  rewall of China somehow partitioned the Bitcoin network and also undermined NTP (the network time protocol), leading some miners to mine blocks with timestamps several months in the future. As a result, there was a fork and the following two branches were created:   Chain A has 500 blocks since the fork. Because of incorrect timestamps at the time of the last di culty adjustment, the last 498 of these were mined with a target of 2182.   Chain B has 1,000 blocks since the fork. All have plausible timestamps, and all were mined with a target of 2184. Once the network partition heals and miners reset their clocks, which of the two chains will they continue to mine on? Choose the best answer. A. Chain A will be accepted by all miners. B. Chain B will be accepted by all miners. C. Different miners will continue to mine on both chains. Justify your answer:
