network propagation. network propagation.
Beginning ~3 days (1662 blocks) prior to a superblock, Sentinel selects one
masternode per block to rank proposals. This ranking is used to determine
what a candidate superblock (or "superblock trigger") should contain. Based on
the results, it creates and broadcasts a new superblock trigger if a matching
one was not found.
All masternodes vote for existing superblock triggers. Each masternode casts
only 1 superblock trigger "Yes" vote per superblock cycle. It will vote "No"
for any other triggers it receives.
Note: This means that proposal votes submitted _after_ superblock trigger
creation begins will _not_ be counted by some masternodes (those that have
already voted on a superblock trigger).
At the superblock height, the trigger with the most "Yes" votes is paid out by
that block's miner.
