What we actually have is a pool mainly used by a small number of relatively large hashers. A real decentralization success story would be if the number of individual hashers was so large, coinbase payouts were completely impractical, and almost everyone was getting paid by Lightning.

OCEAN reaches 56% of unique miners receiving newly generated coins.
Our latest block paid out 50 unique Bitcoin addresses from the coinbase, meaning 50 people received bitcoins directly from Bitcoin itself, not from a middle man.
Over the past six months, 174 addresses have received bitcoin payouts direct from the blockchain.
97 of these were miners mining on OCEAN.
This is the way. Join the revolution. https://image.nostr.build/ d92872452c388990787660e1ff890c9e30df6e615506d020fd83df189819e93e.png
