Title: Top-10 mining pools on bitcoin network over years (2009 - May 2020)
Post by: tranthidung on May 13, 2020, 12:29:13 PM
From that thread With ~90% of blocks solved by 10 pools, is Bitcoin really decentralized anymore? (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5248026.0), I made this one. Data sourceData I used here is total blocks found by Miners/ pools. - Bitcoin block data available in CSV format (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5246271.0)

Thanks OP , really interesting info graphic. One thing that I’ve noticed is that the “unknown” miners made a come back in 2019 and 2020 . Would anyone know why that would be ?

This is a clickbait! I was thinking we should see a nice list of the Hardware Miners, maybe the old ButterflyLabs was the last on the list, but you were talking about the mining pools ;D Maybe you can change the title to that 'Top 10 Mining Pools'.
And the information displayed is good, it is fun to see how the network gets close to a centralized system with time, in the long run, if 3 pools make team they will have a huge weigh for the bitcoin desitions.

I used to be in Guild and sometimes Slush mostly when they got stuck on a block and I wanted to try my luck :p Guild had to close their doors at one point if I remember right, the owner was awesome and it was too popular. I should never have stopped even when appearing not profitable. The rise of the unknown is discussed in this article I just saw, apparently there is a new pool starting just as some operations decline with this lower reward vs price the same as Feb; its less profitable I guess. I have been thinking low oil price should mean less energy costs for miners but I dont know it is relevant or on their scale especially, maybe for cooling. https://crypto-markets.news/news/mining-lubian/479

More than 3 months so here is the update for this year. I run the analysis due to the shady policies from Blockseer - a young mining pool but looks shady. - https://dmgblockchain.com/
- https://stockhouse.com/news/press-releases/2020/10/29/dmg-s-subsidiary-blockseer-launches-bitcoin-mining-pool-focused-on-good
Observed period: - Blocks: 610691 - 656674
- UTC time: 2020-01-02 00:03:05 to 2020-11-12 23:52:00
