Is it possible to see as a normal person that mining pools lead there hashrate to other mining pools so that maybe foundry USA has more than 180EH/s
I think it called proxy mining
I think nostr:npub1vwf2mytkyk22x2gcmr9d7ktprakh6llwpzxqlke8rlv5j0qyx2esf2lxtw talked about this some time ago. First time that I heard this
Countries without cheap energy might get left behind.
Most of them use the same custodian, COBO.
Almost none use stratumv2 and thus the operator decides the block template and can censor transactions.
Proxy mining and hashrate Arbitrage are in the hands of the pool owner, entirely unbekownst to pool participants.
So the questions would be: why the fuck are they using ChOcoBO?
Does the payout custodian own the keys?
Is there a risk for pools to get rugpulled at all?
