It seems like some pools are doing some testing on testnet3, and given that testnet4 is being hijacked by that same asshole who is abusing the rules of testnet4, they just didn't bother to compete with him and overthrow them.
Which makes you wonder -- do these guys even know how to code shit? If yes, what stops them from taking testnet4? They don't want to fight evil with evil?
Good question.
The current 'leader' is
Terra Pool which has 1.82EH behind them per the website (
if you dig deep enough). Their peak
on testnet-3 was >300TH/s in the last 24 hrs so thank God more isn't coming from them. Odd thing is -
all many Google searches come up with them being an altcoin validator pool - LUNA it be exact.
So why the F is one or more of
theretheir users pointing hash rate at the testnet? I do see that most of their blocks contain tx's so as you said, maybe someone is using pooled resources to actually (and very quickly) test code?
All that said, it would be amusing to see someone hammer back against the idjit bombarding tnet-4 for a while - and distribute the coins for free to devs through a Faucet....
