A technique for controlling participation of a miner in a computation of a block for a message to be added to a blockchain in a blockchain network is disclosed. The miner is configured to perform block computation for messages of one or more security levels available in the blockchain network. A method implementation of the technique is performed by the miner and comprises receiving (S) the message, checking (S) whether a security level indication associated with the message matches one of the one or more security levels configured for the miner to determine whether the miner is to participate in the computation of the block for the message, and starting (S) to compute the block for the message if it is determined that the miner is to participate in the computation of the block for the message.

Technique for computing a block in a blockchain network

A technique for communicating protocol data units, PDUs, in a radio communication from a transmitter () to a receiver () is described. As to a method aspect of the technique, one or more control messages indicative of Quality of Service, QoS, requirements for the radio communication are received. The QoS requirements include a control command for a reliability of the radio communication and a control command for a latency of the radio communication. A batch of redundant PDUs is transmitted from the transmitter () to the receiver (). A number of the redundant PDUs per batch depends on the control command for the reliability and a temporal spread of the redundant PDUs per batch depends on the control command for the latency.
