On a cursory look, I was NOT able to find any sub 1 sat tx. I'm sure I could find some if I looked hard and long enough. But I would estimate over 98-99% of the sub 1 sat tx are spam. That's when nodes are supposed to come in and tell the miners what they are allowed to mine. That's the whole point if filters. But coretards are too busy trying to conform the nodes mempool to what miners want. I'm not familiar with anything about Stratum being connected or having anything hosted on Amazon servers. So I can't speak to that issue. But Ocean miners are FAR FAR FAR more decentralized than others who are mere hashers, not actual miners. They sell their hash power to the pool, and the pool mines for them, construct the block template, and decides everything that goes into the block. The hasher can always go hash for an other poll, but aside from Ocean, they all operate the same way. That is a major centralization problem. When a handful of corporations decide what goes into a block. With Ocean, miners construct their own template. And they pay a cheaper pool fee, 1% instead of 2% if they run Datum, which further decentralizes mining. Individual miners decide what goes into a block, not the pool. Furthermore, all the other pools enforce full KYC on their hashers. Ocean doesn't do any KYC on anyone. Thought I'm told a couple of them willingly do it. Probably a couple of stupid ones.
