Here's that great big fat out-of-band non-standard tx that Mara produced earlier today .. So aside from breaking NBXexplorer .. no-one hashing into the Mara pool will ever know what that out of band fee really was, and whether they received any slice of that at all Mara and the other corporate pools/hashers are at one end of the transparency spectrum, and @OCEAN and Hashpool are at the other end entirely As ever, build the world you want to see: act accordingly Shoutout to the @BTCPay Server team for being all over the NBXexplorer issue like a ferret up a trouser leg 🙏
