Title: Appreciate some help: Who is AntPool? Post by: OROBTC on June 23, 2014, 09:24:52 PM ...
I am writing a new blog article, and I will be discussing BTC. My piece will be why everyone should own some gold, have some CA$H and own some BTC. Re BTC, I did want to show some of these changes (new miners at blockchain.info's mining pool stats), which seem to be fairly dramatic over the past few days. Today, I noticed "AntPool" appeared there for the first time (that I have seen). Would AntPool be related to the manufacturer of the AntMiners? Another example of the ASIC makers mining with the machines they make (before delivery to their customers)? THANK YOU for any help! :) :) :) :) Title: Re: Appreciate some help: Who is AntPool?

I wonder if this pool goes public anyday? Title: Re: Appreciate some help: Who is AntPool? Post by: BitCoinDream on June 23, 2014, 10:33:49 PM ...

As to why you all of sudden seeing it on blockchain.info is 'cause it is the testing ground for new S3 units. Title: Re: Appreciate some help: Who is AntPool?

Thanks, guys! http://goo.gl/cfk7gy EDIT: KnC and Bitmain, front-running their own customers, seems kind-of sleazy, no? Title: Re: Appreciate some help: Who is AntPool?
