Luke Dashjr departs Bitcoin mining pool OCEAN

Luke Dashjr departs Bitcoin mining pool OCEAN

The separation stems from conflicting visions regarding the future of Bitcoin mining following recent protocol developments, though neither side has specified which technical disputes triggered the divide. Dashjr, a veteran in the space who previously founded the Eligius pool, intends to launch a new venture called CONVOY to further his mission of decentralizing mining infrastructure. Details regarding the project’s scope, technical architecture, or launch timeline remain undisclosed.

OCEAN, which secured $6.2 million in seed funding from investors including Jack Dorsey in 2023, confirmed that its operations will continue as planned. The pool remains committed to its non-custodial model, which allows miners to receive rewards directly without pool-controlled intermediaries. While the company has not yet named a replacement for Dashjr’s executive roles, it emphasized that service for existing miners remains uninterrupted. Mummolin Inc., the Wyoming-based entity behind the pool, did not disclose the financial terms of the equity repurchase.
