is this safe in a decentralized network kind of ways?
the pool ubiqpool.io have hashing power of more than 80% of all network hashes..

how many confirmation should we wait for a transaction to be considered ok?

i see that the blocks are only generated by ubiqpool

i think the miner should consider to distribute their hashing power to other pools available

Thanks for stopping by slack and asking your question there as well. It's quite common for alts to have much more centralized mining power. In this case, that pool operator is a very trusted member of the community so there shouldn't be much to worry about. He would have to choose to be malicious with his pool's hashpower, and this is highly unlikely.

Thanks for voicing your concerns though!

I'd say a half an hours worth of confirmations would be more than enough Smiley I think Bittrex is using something like 1 hour though.
