Therefore, empty blocks are a legitimate phenomenon that does not affect consensus, but if they occur repeatedly they may impact miners’ fee income and strategy.

On May 15, 2026, the Senate confirmed Kevin Warsh as the 17th Chairman of the FED by a vote of 54 to 45. The 56-year-old financier officially succeeded Jerome Powell as the head of the U.S. central bank. The 54-to-45 vote was also the narrowest approval margin for a FED chair appointment since 1977.
