Approximately 60% of bitcoin blocks are merge mining other chains (since the last halving).
That's down from a peak of 96% in April 2020.
For our latest
report,
analysed which merge mining schemes are in use, and which miners are using them.
Looking at recent data we see different miner / pool groups.
Group 1. No Merge Mining Foundry, MARA, SBI Crypto
Group 2. AuxPow & “Chain A” ViaBTC, F2Pool & Luxor
Group 3. Distinct switching pattern Binance Pool, BTCcom, Poolin, Braiins, ULTIMUS
Group 4. Other Antpool, SECPOOL
Taking a longer view looking back to the genesis block we see that adoption of schemes has fluctuated wildly over time!

Introducing Mempool Goggles!
Have you ever wished you had x-ray specs to see exactly what's inside the mempool?
No, me neither, but we built you a pair anyway.
Click on the Mempool Goggles icon at the top left of the mempool block visualization to reveal the new filter menu.
There are 25 different categories to explore, or mix-and-match to narrow down your focus even further.
Want to see how much of the mempool is occupied by monkey jpegs? Try the "Inscription" filter.
Curious how many transactions use both RBF and CPFP to bump fees? Hit the "Replacement" and "Pays for parent" filters.
From simple mempool analysis to advanced technical insights, Mempool Goggles has something for everyone.
Check it out now on the mempool block page
