1  Bitcoin / Mining / Centralization of mining? "opinions" on: May 31, 2016, 03:24:17 PM
Bitcoin was started based on the decentralization. To this day people continually boast how decentralization will change the world. So I ask why is bitcoin allowing mining to become centralized? Doesn't that go against everything bitcoin stands for? Allowing mining to be controlled by a few will eventually destroy what Satoshi Nakamoto envisioned.
I'm curious what those in charge of bitcoin plan to do about this? I'm also looking forward to the opinion of those on this board.
Maybe I'm missing something and mining isn't becoming centralized?

Question?
I know there are a few hosting companies out there. Is this something the community is interested in using or expanding? The reason I ask, I've got a good size, climate controlled warehouse with reasonable power costs. I currently use it for just my own hardware but would be willing to consider hosting for those with high power costs, noise issues, etc. I'd be interested in everyone's thoughts.
Thanks

Sorry if this has been answered, but I can't seem to find it. Is  there a thread or site that shows what everything on the status screen means for my s7 miners?
Thanks

I'm a newbie with a lot of this. Are there any advantages to private pools vs public? Thanks in advance for your input.
