Nathan Day on Nostr: 6 or 13 other nodes in the network confirming the block mined by the miner is legit ...
6 or 13 other nodes in the network confirming the block mined by the miner is legit and there are no double spends.
These numbers increase over time as more nodes validate/confirm.
Look at some old TXs and you'll see v high numbers of confirmations as those TXs have had more time to propagate.
