  <p​reland:monero.social> Approximately how much data is added to the blockchain when an empty block is mined?

  80-100 bytes

  <p​reland:monero.social> And I’m assuming this is constant? (Ie if block 100 million is empty and block 200 million are empty, they should be the same size presuming no network changes occur between them

  Yes, they will be the same, plus-minus a few bytes for varlen encoding of the height. Different miners also use different length coinbase extra field.

  Does it not depend on the number of miners getting a share for p2pool ?
• 15:49
  sech1
  it does

  but solo miners and centralized pools have a fixed coinbase tx_extra

  <j​effro256:monero.social> This question seems like it might be hiding an X-Y problem. What are you trying to do?

  <p​reland:monero.social> Trying to figure out how different aspects of Monero scale relative to certain variables (in this case, how blockchain size increases relative to time when holding everything else constant)
