Last night I participated in a panel about mining. There was a developer of Straum V2 and obviously there was talk of Datum as a competitor protocol.

The Statum V2 protocol, decentralizes the power from the pool manager, but does not exclude the possibility of an external censorship intervention.

What can be the solutions? We must begin to distinguish the miner who does it solely for profit and the one that does it for the community at the expense of profit.

The **solo mining ** is not efficient and therefore anti -economic, while the centralized minig pool is much more efficient. However, the solo mining is immune to censorship, while the centralized pool isn't.

How to solve this problem? There are private pools, but we return to the problem of centralization.
