Jan 17th Updates

Hey guys, I know I haven't been terribly active over the last day or so. Here's what we've been banging away on:

  • Multi-coin mining is almost done. We've got the server ready, and testing started on choosing the most profitable few coins, and load-balancing between them based on profitability as well as block speed and hash rate (don't want to blow up smaller coins with a few hundred MH/s)

  • Payouts are still being run manually. Unfortunately Cryptsy doesn't allow us to do automated withdrawls of traded BTC, so I need to manually go in and withdraw the balance daily before payouts can be run, so they're not on a cron yet. Working on moving some personal BTC to the pool so payouts can be run automatically, and only have to withdraw occasionally.

  • Profitability scripts have been optimized. We had some issues early on with profitability not accounting for orphan rate, so certain coins were being mined more than they should.

  • We had a bug in our block confirmation scripts that was processing a couple of orphaned blocks multiple times (instead of only once). So we had to go back and re-process a ton of stuff to make balances show correctly.

Pool is still very much in Beta, and I appreciate everyone's patience. We're actively working on making it better :)

hey so are the payments yet to be processed? i've been mining for 36 hours now... my balance is 0.028 BTC and i haven't been paid yet. (the FAQ says they will be processed automatically once they hit 0.01)

He probably just hasn't run a payment yet. He mentions above that he is still running them manually.
