How Does the Pool Operator’s Choice of Server Location Affect Latency for International Miners?
The pool operator must strategically place servers in geographically diverse locations with excellent internet backbone connectivity. A miner in Asia connecting to a server only in North America will experience high latency.
By deploying servers in major mining regions globally, the operator ensures that the majority of miners can connect to a local server, minimizing the physical distance and thus the network latency.
