Title: Mining Union
Post by: Bitchardo on January 14, 2015, 08:34:58 PM
Any interest in forming a Miner's Union? I'm not volunteering to help, but I am curious if any of you think it's a good idea. Like OPEC.

but what purpose would it serve? its not like we could band together and get cheaper power or hardware, or drive the price of BTC up by going on strike... the concept seems pointless to me. can you elaborate?

Bitcoin is too decentralize for things like OPEC to work. Unless you are talking about few big companies control price and difficulty.
