@adi No not quite. The transaction verification process is just how the network works to validate the chains that end up in the ledger and which chains to consider. It’s all based on Proof of Work (PoW) which suffers from the 51% problem.

[@marado _@twtxt.net_](https://twtxt.net/user/marado/) That’s right. This was the original plan, to basically build an AP bridging service and integrated that with yarnd – but at the time it was a lot more work/harder to do this as I had no idea what I was doing then 🤣 Now I do, but the effort/work is still a lot either way 😅 ⌘ [Read more](https://twtxt.net/twt/vx2uihq)
@marado See https://fed.brid.gy/ it would work a lot like this.

AP actors would then follow you at the bridge service (transparent to them really) and you would in turn follow them a ... ⌘ Read more

In other words, choosing to follow an actor does not follow the same model as Yarn/Twtxt does, where we then decide to “fetch” their feed. In fact it’s the other way around, you end up telling server X that you’re interested in actor Y, and servers X will then “push” stuff back to you. You can see how this can lead to some of the infamous DoS behaviours that can occur in the wild 🤣 ⌘ Read more
@marado Well, the reality is that you cannot actually control this too well. Because of the push model of Activity Pub you have to a) trust that the servers you are interacting with are both correct and not malicious and b) have to send
