“Antpool’s in a place, let’s say Foundry’s in a place, whoever, they start doing weird things…miners would just pull their hashrate away; so, where we get into bigger problems is where let’s say Foundry, and Riot, and Marathon, and Cleanspark all get a knock at the same time.”
SHOW DESCRIPTION
Marshall Long is the Head of Architecture for Rhodium Enterprises. In this interview, we discuss the risks of mining centralisation from both the miner & pool perspective and how we can mitigate these and the geopolitical arms race for Bitcoin mining.
