thesatwhisperer on Nostr: Unfortunately it is effectively impossible to run DATUM if you have your miners ...
Unfortunately it is effectively impossible to run DATUM if you have your miners hosted. My local electricity cost is 3X what I pay at hosting, so I can't afford to do it any other way. I would think that it would still be possible to point the miners to my own DATUM server to construct templates, but the latency would probably also kill my chances of actually solving any blocks.
One interesting thing that DATUM has done is make it possible to see that there are effectively two miners solving something like 80 to 90% of OCEAN's blocks. "ELEKTRON ENERGY" and "PENGUIN" are by far the largest winners of blocks.
