Where the article explains it
Model the draft’s acceptance probability as per token, roughly constant and independent across the tokens proposed in a round — an idealization real traffic does not fully satisfy, but a useful one for seeing the ceiling.
The passage around this formula
The size of the win has a clean shape. Model the draft’s acceptance probability as per token, roughly constant and independent across the tokens proposed in a round — an idealization real traffic does not fully satisfy, but a useful one for seeing the ceiling. The expected number of tokens accepted per verification round is then
