๐จใMajor Upgrade to Bitcoin Mining Pool Ocean! BIP110 Fork Storm โ Where Do Miners Go From Here?ใ๐จ
Just now, the Bitcoin mining pool Ocean announced that it will perform a backend upgrade in response to the potential fork of BIP110. This isnโt small-scale tinkering!
Plain-English interpretation: Once BIP110 is activated, the on-chain ecosystem could split into two paths. Oceanโs approach is hardcore โ no picking sides, no choosing a faction. Instead, it lets Datum miners each follow the chain they believe in. Meanwhile, Ocean will run two mining pools at the same time, handling accounting and settlements separately.
Starting from block height 961632, the rewards mined on the two chains are counted separately โ effectively โfighting on two fronts.โ
From a technical standpoint, this means Ocean fully hands over the choice to miners, and it only acts as a neutral settlement layer. In the short term, this may lead to hashpower fragmentation and earnings volatility. Over the long term, it could also push the market to reach consensus faster โ whichever chain ecosystem is more active and whose hashpower is more concentrated is likely to become the โreal chain.โ
For ordinary miners, this isnโt just something to watch โ it directly impacts the logic of how rewards are allocated. If the fork truly arrives, donโt blindly follow the crowd. First, check which chain your node recognizes, then decide where to direct your hashpower.
Market expectations: Around the time of the fork, BTC volatility will inevitably increase. Short-term risk-avoidance sentiment may rise. But this is also an excellent window to observe miner decision-making and hashpower migration.
Stay calm, and move only when youโre sure.
