Why is Antpool not using all its hash power for Bitcoin Unlimited?

[Windowly]

Maybe this is a stupid question but does anyone know why Antpool not using all its hash power for Bitcoin Unlimited? On coindance it seems split between bitcoin unlimited blocks and core blocks.

Perhaps it takes some time to switch it all over, but that they are switching it all.

Very good news. I'm looking forward to our own bitcoin.com pool taking off as well! BTC

It is open to the public now.
Please help spread the word!

HI everyone, first post

Every tried a load of pools BUT always come back to Slush Pool as it's user inreface is very good.

Some of my miners are remote from me so i can monitor each, if one stios/hashrate drops you receive an email.

Don't think anything can compare to it.

Welcome to the forum!
In the coming weeks, we will try to add all the features that Slush pool has, and even more.
Feel free to post exactly what you would like to see in the pool forum thread: post50471.html#p50500

Looks like Antpool has now made the decision to switch their entire pool to unlimited:

Yes, according to the news sources, AntPool will be switching over completely in the future. At the moment, they are voting for BU with just over 56% of their hash power.

All their Beijing nodes are signaling BU, but none of their USA nodes as of right now.

Here's a table of the analysis I do on the blockchain just to see how AntPool is voting.

Table (from block 450000 to 457149)

Total % voting for BU at AntPool: 56.228%.
