https://pool.viabtc.com/Now we are sure that ViaBTC is misreporting the information.
According to them, still, after the block mine, half of the entire Bitcoin world is mining BCC.
There seems to be one reason for that: There is a sub-community who considers ViaBTC authorative, who is relying on ViaBTC for information.
I am so sorry for that community.
I'm even sorrier that
we have to be the recipients of all this anti-effort at the behest of untruth.
I just about cannot stand it. Just about...
This is what is called "evil".
Hmm I'm not sure and I didn't do much diligence myself but from what I've heard and read that BCC thing is the "last try" of the Antminer producers to save their advantage in SHA256 mining by using the "Asicboost technology". Asicboost isn't compatible with segwit and they'd lose their advantage and would need to miner like every other sha256 asic if the network switches to segwit blocks.
However - the way that bitcoin abc (BCC) handles it - IS Asicboost compatible..
Now if I'd had a farm (in china) with several Petahashes and thousands of miners racks - I'd at least understand why I'd try to save my 25% speedup against other miners.. My company is 25% more profitable as long as I can mine "empty" blocks where only 1 TX is incuded - the TX which pays the block to the miner (myself)..
AFAIK (not sure) ViaBTC Roger Ver is somehow connected to Antminer etc...
