Since the dramatic decrease in hashrate[1] on 29/05/24 from ~2.8 GH/s to ~1.8 GH/s as of 01/06/24. This has shaken up the pool distribution[2]; as a result, nanopool now holds ~576 MH/s (30% of the total 1.8 GH/s.)This isn’t a five-alarm fire, but it is mildly concerning. This can potentially repeat the MineXMR 51% scare of 2022[3]. If any of you fine folks would consider mining on a decentralised pool such as p2ool[4], now is the time.
Ps, I am in no way affiliated with p2ool. Happy mining.
It is more like a plea to decentralize the Monero mining network, no one is making anything off of p2pool, unlike all the other centralized pools that charge a fee and reduce the security of the network.
Unless you are solo mining you should be using p2pool and nothing else.
All good. If you have any questions, feel free to ask. If I don't know the answer, I'll tell you that I don't know the answer. But I've been around long enough that I know the answers to most of the questions that are common anyway.
