Join the private Bitcoin forum:https://www.bitcoinuniversity.com/bitcoin-forumIn this video, I discuss the global centralization of Bitcoin hash rate, including Jihan Wu's control over Chinese mining pools. I also discuss the differences between mining rigs (ASICs, hashers), mining farms, and mining pools.Fortunately for Bitcoin, there is an eternal Mexican standoff between nodes, miners, and other parts of the Bitcoin ecosystem that makes Bitcoin very difficult to change or to attack.Not investment advice!
