- A Bitcoin miner said it does not support BIP-110 even though it mined through a pool that backed the proposal.
- The miner said pool participation should not be treated as support for every proposal.
- The dispute highlights differences between miners and mining pools over Bitcoin governance.
A Bitcoin miner said it does not support BIP-110 even though it mined through a pool that backed the proposal.
The miner said using a mining pool does not mean it supports every proposal the pool supports.
The disagreement emerged after the pool signalled support for BIP-110, according to the report.
BIP-110 is a Bitcoin Improvement Proposal that has become part of a wider governance debate.
The miner said its position had been misunderstood because of the pool’s public support.
Mining pools often represent the combined computing power of many individual miners.
The report said the disagreement shows that pool signals do not always reflect the views of every participating miner.
