- STX Miners: package transactions into blocks, mine them through a Bitcoin transaction, propagate them, and if they win the block race, append microblocks to their winning block until the next block is mined. The next block confirms the microblock stream.
- STX Holders: May alter the calculation of block limits (subject to a miner veto) and may vote to disable Proof-of-Transfer rewards for a reward cycle.
