🚀 DATUM Hits 100 Blocks 🌊 Miners all over the world are letting the industry know that decentralization matters. In less than a year, OCEAN’s DATUM Mining Protocol has spread like wildfire. 📈 Over 65% of OCEAN’s miners are using DATUM, and that number is growing every day. This means block template construction is making its way back into the hands of the miners, which is not only the most profitable for miners on OCEAN but also one of the best things for Bitcoin. Decentralization is happening. Bitcoin is becoming censorship resistant again. The future is starting to look bright again. To all of our miners who helped make this possible: Thank you. We’re humbled by your support and trust. To all of our future miners: what are you waiting for? DATUM is ready when you are. 💪

“Deploying hashrate to OCEAN aligns with both our mining investments and our broader mission to fortify Bitcoin against centralizing forces.” Paolo Ardoino

One of the most exciting things happening in Bitcoin is seeing plebs drive the decentralization movement forward. Skot and Bitaxe are playing a major role in this grassroots effort. OCEAN’s Mark Artymko connected with Skot at Mining Disrupt to dive into a key (and often overlooked) piece of decentralization: block template construction.

Thwarting 51% attacks and keeping Bitcoin's hard cap of 21 million rely on decentralization and the network remaining trustless. @npub1lh27...a9nk breaks down the dangers of centralization and the truth about 51% attacks in his sit down with @NICO⚡️ at Mining Disrupt.
