Billionaire and Block co-founder Jack Dorsey is leading a new funding round that aims to decentralize the mining ecosystem of Bitcoin (BTC<\/a>).<\/p>\n

According to a new press release, Dorsey has led<\/a> a $6.2 million seed funding round to support the launch of Mummolin\u2019s decentralized BTC mining protocol OCEAN<\/a>.<\/p>\n

\u201cMummolin, Inc., announced today that it has raised $6.2 million in seed funding, led by Jack Dorsey, Accomplice, Barefoot Bitcoin Fund, MoonKite, NewLayer Capital, the Bitcoin Opportunity Fund, and other strategic partners. <\/em><\/p>\n

The seed funding will support the launch of OCEAN, the first of many mining decentralization projects for Bitcoin.\u201d <\/em><\/p>\n

According to Dorsey, OCEAN \u2013 a permissionless, non-custodial and transparent BTC mining protocol \u2013 aims to solve the problem of Bitcoin mining pools becoming increasingly centralized.<\/p>\n

As stated by Dorsey in the press release,<\/p>\n

\u201cOCEAN is solving a problem for Bitcoiners that I think all of us feel \u2013 further centralization of pools and mining pools that could plague Bitcoin, and how that risks a bunch of Bitcoin attributes that we hold dear. <\/em><\/p>\n

When I see a project that is good for Bitcoin broadly, and that\u2019s also good for me and my companies personally, it becomes a simple decision for me and I\u2019m happy to be a part of it.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n

OCEAN founder and Bitcoin \u201cOG\u201d Luke Dashjr says that the protocol will allow miners to once again obtain block rewards directly from BTC.<\/p>\n

\u201cOCEAN is a new type of pool that enables miners to be truly miners again. We are launching as the most transparent pool and also the only non-custodial pool where miners are the recipients of new block rewards directly from Bitcoin.\u201d <\/em><\/p>\n
