עטהערעום fork supporters are getting ready to scrap the crucial EIP-1559. An Ethereum miner has written an open message to the community after receiving support from many industry heavyweights.
Towards the end of the transition towards proof-of-stake (PoS), the Twitter account of the proposed chain-split fork, EthereumPoW, claimed that the formerly “almighty” Ethereum Foundation had given up on “decentralization” as one of its aims.
In a lengthy discussion, backers of the Ethereum fork argued that the Ethereum Foundation was trying to use EIP-1559 to promote a favorable theme at the cost of the miners. They said the “elites” were silencing the miners while in reality, the working class is a political force that should possess some political power and influence for the sake of a more representative government. They further claimed that miners were pressured into participating.
The EthereumPoW group, who call themselves truly decentralized, has guaranteed that the new token will not be pre-mined and that there will be no inflation. The group will continue to prioritize protecting Proof-of-Work and the Nakamoto Consensus process.
