The Weekly Brief · week of 2026-10-12
Chain split: The BLAKE2b chain produced 1,145 blocks this week against the SHA-256 chain's 1,072 — the minority chain outpaced the majority on raw block count, a direct function of its faster block cadence. There is zero pool overlap between the two chains this week: no pool mined blocks on both sides, indicating a clean separation of miner commitment at the pool level.
