Almost simultaneously, the miner Node Y who was also extending the chain from block "star" finds a solution for block "upside-down triangle," his candidate block. Now, there are two possible blocks; one we call "triangle," originating in Node X; and one we call "upside-down triangle," originating in Node Y. Both blocks are valid, both blocks contain a valid solution to the Proof-of-Work, and both blocks extend the same parent (block "star"). Both blocks likely contain most of the same transactions, with only perhaps a few differences in the order of transactions. -As the two blocks propagate, some nodes receive block "triangle" first and some receive block "upside-down triangle" first. As shown in <>, the network splits into two different perspectives of the blockchain; one side topped with a triangle block, the other with the upside-down-triangle block. +As the two blocks propagate, some nodes receive block "triangle" first and some receive block "upside-down triangle" first.
