Seems like a good idea to "buy" votes for XT or Core  ;D

By the way, I don't claim this idea, the original is here: https://www.reddit.com/r/bitcoinxt/comments/3il2wa/bip101_26_btc_per_block/

I just implemented it for fun.

I don't know but I think if BIP101 implements that kind of rewarding system, many would jump ship simply because of the extra reward they may get on mining a single block and not actually from the development and tech within BIP101. I see this as some kind of gimmick for XT to gain traction and votes. In politics, I might think of it as "vote buying."

It supports both Core and XT in exactly the same way.

Vote buying is not an issue here. If somebody wanted to bribe miners, they could do it behind closed doors anyway. At least here everything is in the open and fair play to both sides.

It provides signals to the miners about where the economic majority is.

Still I don't see where is the freedom of choice in here when in every choice you made, there will be a reward waiting for you in the end. One side could actually have higher rewards than the other side to entice them to use it. People as we know it tend to choose on what they think is the best because of what incentives they see that they could get. Just let the economy, the miners, and the users choose what BIP they want to choose without giving them something after they have chosen.

It provides signals to the miners about where the economic majority is.

Signals of economic majority based on incentives gained because of voting?

Just what we need, note people voting with their money. This might seem like a good idea but do we really want to give the people with more money more power?

Of course not. We want to give more power to a few neckbeards ::)

Not to mention sending the money through a webpage which is on the same domain that this FUCKIN' EMBEZZLING PSYCHOPATH NxtChg is withholding (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=929688.msg10205597#msg10205597) my FUCKIN' BTC for over SEVEN (7) FULL FUCKIN' MONTHS...   ::)
If you're still waiting after 7 whole months, then IMO you should just forget about having that money because its not coming back.

Since nobody has said it yet:

You guys (and gals) are aware, that most likely, the owner of this website, just waits till there is enough money in the addresses to run with it, don't you?

...that most likely, the owner of this website...

Yeah, that's most likely ::)

Well, up to about 400 BTC you're safe, since that's the largest amount of money I held in my custody.

UPDATE:

The tool now correctly detects p2pool reward payouts and today somebody got more than $50 for 2 XT blocks they found.

Also added QR codes and restructured the page a bit, as well as better orphans handling.
