LBRY makes some small changes to consensus timing and methodology.
#### Block Timing
The target block time was lowered from 10 to 2.5 minutes to facilitate faster transaction confirmation.
#### Difficulty Adjustment
The proof-of-work target is adjusted every block to better adapt to sudden changes in hashrate. The exact adjustment algorithm can be seen [here](#fixme).
