Bitcoin mining pool OCEAN has announced a planned backend upgrade to enable independent operation across multiple chains should a BIP 110 fork occur. According to a statement from OCEAN, its DATUM miners will automatically continue mining on whichever chain their nodes are running if a fork happens.
OCEAN will record rewards for each chain in a dedicated fork share log, subject to the chain's continued operation and the pool's service terms. The company noted that it would effectively operate as two separate mining pools starting from the fork point, and said updated service terms will be released before block 961,632.
