Miners abandoning BTC and switching for altcoins
As per a report, last week the largest Chinese mining company Velarhash appears to be abandoning BTC mining. Its computing power was dropped almost 200 petaheches per second on April 6, whereas in March it was uplifted to 4,000 petaheches.
This shows that the company has made its mindset to abandon the production of BTC and is looking forward to mine altcoins. Last July, Velarhash introduced two pools for bitcoin mining, Bytepool, and 1THash.
Velarhash mounted equipment in the Chinese area of Sichuan. Moreover, the Bytepool and 1THash computed for 9% of bitcoin hash, but their capacity has tumbled a low.
The top ten rankings of Bitcoin miners
Looking at the ranking of the top 10 Bitcoin miners, 1THash dived in the eighth position in terms of its computing capacity. Whereas, the Bytepool will probably transfer its volume for BTC production to the 1THash.
Though, it has been observed that the number of mining pools involved in BTC mining has reduced. The small miner teams in block mining are slowly decreasing. A report says, over 40 established mining operations were mandated to lock because of the price reduction of BTC and unprofitable mining equipment business.
