Same owner, several pools
CKPool

Cedric Crispin

Splitting your hashrate across two pools with the same owner is not diversification.
Why this matters when you pick a pool
- ▸ Concentration: an outage or policy change at one large company moves a big slice of the network, and your payouts with it.
- ▸ One owner, many names: pools run by the same company share nodes, payout systems and fee policy.
- ▸ Smaller pools need you more: pointing a rig at a smaller pool spreads the network out. Compare their fees and payouts on each pool's page.

Shares are of BTC's network hashrate (1.09 ZH/s). The pools we read report 1.37 ZH/s together, 126% of the network: the largest pools match the blocks they find, so the excess sits in figures we can't check that way.
