As a #Bitcoin user, you have no way to force an on-chain transaction into a block mined by a specific miner.

I wish this was possible 🤔

Why? Because I worry about miner centralization. Some companies and the countries they are residing in, are getting too big.

What if wallets would let you post transactions out-of-bounds, say, only to the Ocean mining pool?

Or better yet: what if a wallet would let you post a transaction to a white list of small pools, and whomever finds a block with your transaction first gets the reward?

Seems doable, basically a private mempool. Maybe something that could be done over Nostr, where a TX is broadcast to pools that are participating?
