Looks like blockchain.com is not showing the hashrate for huobi.pool, novablock and one or two others. It's just dumping them into the unknown pile.

1) It's not just 1 pool. It is several miners not broadcasting who they are

2) Not sure where you are getting 20% it's 6.9% for the last 24H / 9.4% for 3D and 9.2% for 1W take a look at

Oh strange, thanks for the link. I was getting this from Blockchain.com, guess they must be reporting inaccurate info again.

Thanks!

Hey guys, haven't posted in a while but have been monitoring the Bitcoin network every day as usual. Have noticed that it appears over the last few days, the pool with the highest hashrate is unknown. I could be mistaken, but I swear the Unknown hashrate used to be around 10% - 15%, but now it's nearing 20%. Any speculation as to where this large hashrate is coming from? In the back of my mind, I've always speculated it is coming from some country or government I.E russia or NK, but I am unsure how feasible this is due to the energy restraints.

My fear is that it could be from BTC.com/antpool. If so this would put them at 51% of the hashrate.

Of course I know no one has a definitive answer, I am just curious as to what you guys think the source could be.

Thanks!
