The `max_past` parameter, supposed to stop endorsing of blocks that are too old, compared absolute times rather than relative times. Specifically, it would check whether the block timestamp or the current time was more recent than 110 seconds after epoch. The new version checks whether the difference between the block timestamp and the current time is greater than 110seconds.
Tezos
Tezos is a distributed consensus platform with meta-consensus capability. Tezos not only comes to consensus about the state of its ledger, like Bitcoin or Ethereum. It also attempts to come to consensus about how the protocol and the nodes should adapt and upgrade.
