👩🎤Actor Selection
The CometBFT consensus algorithm selects the acting validator. The algorithm selects Block creators for each epoch/block.
The thereby elected validator is the master of ceremony for this very execution of the PoP and performs the following actions
selects a challenger and a challengee
verifies their availability via m2m (mqtt)
notarizes the selection via an InitPoP message containing
the validator-address,
challenger address
challengee address
block height
sends a PopInit command containing the block height of the PoP to the challenger and the challengee with the expectation that both will perform the PoP.
