BTC.com Pool is a proof‑of‑work mining pool reachable via https://pool.btc.com, where participating miners aggregate hashpower and the pool coordinates block construction and submission (i.e., it functions as the practical “validator” role on PoW chains by producing blocks when it finds valid proof‑of‑work).
