Methodology
The 6 blocks from the tip of the blockchain (including the most recent block) are assessed. Coin Metric employs a proprietary entity clustering methodology in order to identify major mining pools & miners. The coinbase output field used by miners to self-identify is also used to help assess miner identities.
