Rather than positioning every miner in a competition against one another to solve the same puzzle, Ore gives each miner their own individual puzzle to work on. As long as a miner provides a valid solution to their own puzzle, the protocol guarantees they will earn a reward. Even if large miners come online and begin mining Ore, they may win a large portion of the new rewards, but they can't exclude other miners from winning as well. The computational difficulty of the puzzles is constant and the same for everyone, everywhere. Therefore, to avoid the uncontrolled reward inflation that would occur as computers get more powerful and miners solve increasingly more puzzles, Ore periodically adjusts the reward rate paid out to miners per valid solution. This reward rate fluctuates to maintain an average of 1 ORE mined every 60 seconds, regardless of how many miners there are and how their powerful their computers are. + +
