Could you elaborate on the functioning of a Bitcoin transaction block? I'm particularly curious about how these blocks are created, verified, and added to the blockchain. Do they require a consensus from the network? How does the mining process affect the creation of blocks? Additionally, how does the block reward system work, and how does it incentivize miners to contribute to the network's security? Understanding the intricacies of Bitcoin's block structure is crucial for grasping the fundamentals of this decentralized ledger system.
