slot is simply a ledger number in Stellar implementation. Once previous ledger closed nodes start by proposing candidates for the next "slot" and then vote on it.

key implementation details
The Herder considers a ledger number to be a "slot" in the SCP protocol, and transaction set hashes (along with close-time and base-fee) to be the sort of "value" that it is attempting to agree on for each "slot".

Would that be my account number or the transaction sequence number? Or is it tracking a request on its own? Commented Feb 9, 2018 at 6:25
