Arbitrator
In the Qubic ecosystem, there is a critical role that deals with disputes and safeguards users' interests. The arbitrator is an entity within the Qubic ecosystem tasked with resolving conflicts and protecting user benefits.
The arbitrator sets parameters for mining algorithms, releasing rankings of contributors in each epoch (Epoch). Furthermore, the arbitrator accumulates QUs that underperforming or frequently malfunctioning contributors are unable to obtain. Each node operator, based on personal needs and preferences, sets corresponding IDs in the program file Qubic.cpp to individually select trusted arbitrators for protection purposes.
