Pool behavior:
Not all mining pools produce empty blocks. For example, Foundry and Mara produce none.
Of those pools that do find empty blocks, Spiderpool and Ocean have much higher empty block rat...
Profitability:
Currently if miners switch to full templates within ~7 seconds, the empty+full strategy can be slightly more profitable. However, many miners struggle with timely switching.
(Values sensitive to networking conditions and fee proportions, see report.)
