I don't know what you guys are thinking but as a general user of Bitcoin, I am shocked that this can be done. How is it possible that they can hide the transaction or not show it on a chain? Or does this post mean that a specific pool did not pick it but was processed via another pool? I am just trying to understand the significance here. Anything that is broadcasted on the blockchain has to get included in a block so that it can be confirmed and then the whole process completes with a seed. Right?
I've gotta say, this is kinda worrying. Miners go against their interest in receiving fees from transactions by censoring certain transactions.
Maybe it was to be expected that a few pools would start doing this, but finding out that most of the big pools have started doing this around the same time? That's even more worrying.
I'm starting a thread to showcase which pools are NOT censoring transactions anymore. Feel free to drop by:
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5475228.0Also, how are they able to censor it? What is the technology that they are implying here that is calling them to do so? Until now I thought we were on a public ledger meaning anything that is sent or received can be seen on the chain if we know the BTC address. From where is the topic of censorship stated or was it included in the white paper already? I would say I am still #weakintechnicals
