Title: Namecoin payout?
Post by: RiaanAspeling on March 27, 2018, 06:14:38 AM
I've been mining Bitcoin on Slush from around middle January. I see that the Namecoin rewards in my report just says "Processing". In that history it looks like the last Namecoin was processed at block 41647 on 2018-01-12 10:28, days before I started mining on Slush.

What gives? Why is there no processing taking place? Why is there no Namecoin payout?

Any insight into this would be appreciated.

If I'm right, NMC needs 120 confirmations to be mature. I have "merged mining" in BTCGuild a few years ago. You can check NMC Block History at Slush.

Yeah, Slush requires a 100 confirms on BTC. The Namecoin, however, hasn't changed since 12 Jan 2018. None have been processed yet.

Then, you can ask them (Slush) via Slush's web.

Or their support thread:

Thanks Geraldo, I'll give it a try. But with a 1138 page thread, my question might just disappear in there.

My pleasure!
Nothing wrong with a try, they are the first and one of the biggest mining pool, and I believe they care about their miners. Also, you can try with their social media nor directly use a contact form on their websites.
