Dumped ocean.xyz after a day b/c:
👎 Not running #Bitcoin Core 🚨
👎 Electing self as gatekeeper (Knots censorship)
👎 Custodial payouts, like all other pools
👎 #Bitcoin address reuse hurts privacy
👎 No plans for freeing source
Will reevaluate in 2024. 🤷♂️
nostr:npub1au23c73cpaq2whtazjf6cdrmvam6nkd4lg928nwmgl78374kn29sq9t53j all valid critiques if yall want to grow market share
No, I think most of them actually invalid.
Where to next?
Seems reasonable
He has still refused to answer nostr:npub1tr4dstaptd2sp98h7hlysp8qle6mw7wmauhfkgz3rmxdd8ndprusnw2y5g ‘s questions and then called me a liar for pointing out that he is avoiding questions regarding the details of how he will run the pool… not the actions of a guy who is shooting straight. I will not be using his pool either. Sad, as I was excited initially at the idea, but seems the actual reality is FAR from what he is promising… hopefully he will finally answer some questions and address the concerns of those who are actually wanting to support the cause… maybe some humble pie after the community bails on his project will get him to rethink his approach
Thanks for posting your findings!
I've been trying to find out what they're using for block building. do you know if they're using stock knots, or a proprietary set of patches?
Not sure what they were thinking not using core... That's no go
Exactly
NO HEROS
The mining situation is discouraging right now. Braiins moving to FPPS, and Ocean falling well short of expectations. Seems like there's no place to go for plebs who actually care about Bitcoin.
plug my boys solo mining pool while the iron is hot https://web.public-pool.io #bitaxe

If they really implement everything as promised. It will be great. But in the meantime it's almost just another pool
